Life & Things
Well I had my reg checkup wit my diabetes dr & things are fairly well. Still some erratic blood sugar results going uncomfortably high for him anyway (he's super fussy), but, he's pleased that I seem to stabilizing away fr lows so that is something right
Hubby had his cancer checkup & it appears to be mildly active again. His PSA was 13.97. Here it's protocol that when it's over 10 they treat. So he'll be undergoing hormone injections again starting in a couple wks. s we were talking with the nurse abt arrangements I found out that it came into effect a bt 6 months ago that the pills he needs to take at this time will be covered & he can have his injections done by a nurse that will come to the house. It felt like such a huge weight being lifted as with his oxygen & the weather getting out can be just so difficult.
I had wondered ow things would play out if he found out it was active again. I had this feeling that he'd feel enough is enough & we'll lefyt things play out from here. His dr made a couple points that changed his mind. He knows he has my support & I reassure him that this is exactly where we are meant to be right now in life. He dr always tells us that is forrm of cancer is so mild that his lungs will take him way before & somehow now he figures it might be better not to have a double whammy to fight if you understand where my thinking is going.
I'm thinking we had our one day of nice spring weather for Apr. It occurred earlier this wk & has tanked since then. Geez whiz already. Get this I was just glancing out the sun room door & there's a table there where I feed my squirrels & birds can pick peanuts too. There was a little Junco sitting hugging himself as close to the door as he could. He's sheltered a bit by the roof overhang. Poor litttle guy, it was a real aawwe moment. Can you imagine if someone as wacky as me would put all kinds of tiny little cabins all in a corner of the garden where all my critters & birds could camp out LOL. Can you picture all kinds of tny little cots, everyone could just snugggle. Okey dokey the rain must be messing with my sanity. It's fun any way.
I screwed up a rib on the right side of my body at a stretch & strength class on Tues a.m.. I'vve done moves similar to this like tons in life but must have moved someting the wrong way cause I felt some kind of grind, snap, OUCH. So there was no yoga for me this wk. It's weird cause it's just one small spot. Not sure where this is going but I guess if it's too long I'll have to have it checked, darn it all. I'm going to see how the ribs like the gym & hopefully yoga next wk.
Does anyone's pet or pets snore. Angel is sleeping beside me right now, deep in dreamland & he's giving out the funniest snorea, LOL. I've never really notced that fr her. Just aounds funny somehow\
I'm going to be applying for the governments caregivers tax credit. So we'll see. My tax person says it's quite clear that I'm a caregiver. My dr was totally OK with it.
I know I'm not here as much as I shd or would like to be as this is where there's sanity & caring & compassion but somedays by the time I could my brain is just too fried to try. I do so hhold you all close to my heart & soul though.

Thinking of you and your DH, Kitty, you have alot on your plate so don\'t worry about not being here, you\'re where you need to be :).... yup, my Groucho snores, it\'s a cute gentle one, his purrs also lull me to sleep. I think spring is here... 20-21C this weekend, don\'t we deserve that friend? So do our furry and feathered friends. Hugs hun.
Sorry that I am late to the party : ) but I haven\'t been logging on as much as I would like. I\'m glad to hear that your hubby seems to be handling the news OK. I hope the treatments aren\'t affecting him too much. I have been praying for you both, as always. And hopefully your ribs are all back to normal now. I know how that is with exercise. Sometimes it passes quickly so I hope that\'s how it has been with you. I\'m loving yoga these days, again. It feels great. Caregiving can take so much out of us, even when we love it, our bodies need a break now and then. I hope you aren\'t over doing it and hope you and hubby can find times of joy and laughter each day. I pray that God heaps blessings on you until they overflow. xoxo, m
