Hey All!!
How are you all doing? I haven't been on here as much as I used to, sorry for that!
Hope that with this warmer weather, you are all keeping cool, and staying healthy!
I'm doing good. Lost 91 pounds in 5.5 months, since my Gastric Bypass, and walking a bit better.
Still on the O2, at night with my bi pap machine. That won't get re-evaluated until September.
Val and I are still going strong. She had some health issues she is getting chemo for, but it's not cancer. She's done with it, in 2 weeks! Thank the lord!! IT's been a trying time for us, but we are trying to stay close, and communicate, although she has been extremely exhausted, but still working, the workaholic that she is!! Committed woman I have!
Mom is still in the nursing home ,but now that I feel better, I take my rolling walker with the seat, and go get her, and take her out for lunch, or a drive, or bring dinner to her.
With the walker seat, I can put the food I've put in containers, on the seat, and "roll my way right into the nursing home" IT's great!!
I'm planning on selling the house, I co-own it with my brother, and Val has asked me to move in with her.!!!! This move probably won't happen until spring of next year, I need time to get this on the market pretty soon...
Love to all of you, and big hugs!!
Boo
