Dear Journal,
First the bad news:
I'm sick. ::sigh:: Hubby has been real sick with an upper respiratory infection and he graciously shared with me. Lucky me, eh? I have had a sore throat since Sunday. Have a slight cough too. Felt terrible earlier today, kinda achy, but am feeling somewhat better as far as that part goes. Had insomnia again last night. That is the absolute pits. It is like my brain won't shut down. No fun. :-(
My precious Simba kitty gave me quite the scare tonight. He started gasping and coughing. His breathing became quite congested-sounding. Thankfully, it passed after a few minutes, but just to be safe, I called in his symptoms to my vet. She wants to see him in the morning. I could tell he has not felt well all day. I pray he is going to be okay. I am so attached to my little Simba kitty. Vet thinks it is an allergy or viral infection.
Awww, ain't he cuuuuuute!~
Good News:
My stepfather had to have a heart catheterization on Monday. They found a 99% blockage to his aorta, the main artery to his heart. They did an immediate stent placement. He had to have two stent placements a couple of years ago. The doc said this stent had to be much longer, so evidently it was quite a bad blockage. I am so happy that our technology has advanced like it has because stents have saved so many lives and stent placement is so much easier on a patient than open heart surgery! It is wonderful news that they found it in time and were able to do the stent placement instead of what the doctors call a cabbage (CABG, which stands for coronary artery bypass graft). He only had to stay overnight and got to come home today! Thank you, Jesus!~
I am posting a cool website you can go to and learn more about it:
And more wonderful news, next week is my daughter's Spring break and I am on vacation. Woo Hoo!~
Will write more later!~
