Well I met with the doc and went over everything...options etc....He made me a promise that I intend on holding him to....He wants me to see a cardiologist at this point and if he says alls stable and okay then I will have a six month break...Thank gawd! At that time he says they will want to go back in and see how things are moving along....I am so relieved....I am so tired of appointments, tests, being prodded and poked etc...It all gets me so depressed....I have made my deicisions and my doc will honor them...Bless his heart....I am so looking forward to this next appointment with the heart specialist....Because then I will get a break....I will only see my lung specialist once a month or as needed and my PCP the same....Wow! I cannot tell you how happy this makes me....I tend to do so much better on every level when left to my own devises....lol...Without having all this less then great news so constantly....You see to me it makes very little difference what the tests etc say....I really don't much care at this point...What matters most to me is how I feel....And outside of being really tired I feel pretty dang good....I am so looking forward to next month as the weather usually breaks here in Florida and the humidity finally goes way down....I will have to spend a night or two in the hospital early October but I am even okay with that so long as that is where it ends for awhile....Relief really doesn't sum up all I feel....Free...thats how it makes me feel....Just free to do my own thing in my own way with the support of my docs, friends, and family....Lawd its been a looooong road...
Today is a good day....My son brought me to the food store to pick up a few things....It always wears me out but we had an enjoyable time....Now I am about ready to think about a bit of dinner and just rest and relax for the rest of this day....My chores can wait till tomorrow....Yayyy....
It sure seems there is always so much to do around here....I don't really understand it as it is a wee little house...My son makes one mess after the next...lol...I don't know why that is but we had a talk about my need to have things in place....Yes, I appreciate having him here with me and I so enjoy his company but lol he really is a messy person....lol....He says he will try to be more conscious of leaving his dishes and such around....Whew....thank goodness...lol....Gotta love him....*smiles*....
Well thats about it for this day....I sure hope everyone is breathing easy and finding things to smile and laugh about....Huge hugs all the way around....
Love and Many Blessings, Serenity






I'm so glad that you have such a wonderful, understanding doctor. Yes, I think I understand a little bit of what you feel. Last winter I would have loved to have an entire week with no doctors. Just the going and coming from the docs office is exhausting, let alone the tests.
Have a lovely supper, and enjoy the rest of your day!
Love & a big hug, Sue

Sounds like you are not swimming upstream as much as you did for a while. time to settle in and coast along for a few months. Hopefully we'll chat some time this week or next. Thinking of you and sending energy to brighten your way. Hugs OhanaMarie

That is great that you'll get a break from doctors' appointments - like you said what is the difference what the tests show - if you are feeling good! Well, you enjoy this time off from all the doctors' appointments - Your sounding good -- take care my friend. Love ya, Julie

Hi there !! I have been reading some of your writing and enjoying getting to know you a bit !!
Thrilled to hear you will have a well deserved rest for a while now, it can be so tiring going to all those apts., testing, ect., all that alone uses up every once of energy.
Enjoy your freedom !!
