It's an hour drive to the hospital. With all the rain and flooding, I was not
able to go there today. However, the rain is suppose to be cleared out by
Friday.
Take good care of him Val, Hope he recovers soon
My mom suffers from hypochondriasis and are at the hospital up to 10 days every month (You should see her medicine cabinet ) She could open her own pharmacy.
Good luck with your loved one, And give him lot's of love and care
They've scheduled his surgery for about two weeks down the road.
Going to pick him up today in a bit.
He will be having valve replacement and also taking some veins from his leg and some stints.
My grandmother, when alive, would go to the doctor at least once a month and usually more.
She would get a B12 shot. She'd say, I got to go to doctor and get my B12 shot. I often
wondered if it wasn't just water/placebo. According to her, every day something was wrong
with her. She lived to be about 82 and died a very peaceful death. She had a smile on her
face as she passed. In my head instead of hearing out loud 'I have joint pain in my leg today' or 'I
have a cold today' or 'my arthritis is acting up today'.........I heard 'I died today'. As if to day,
I am happy because something else is wrong with me today.
