I’m thinking of you.

I hope your day is a good one.

3 Positives:
T got a blessing – his surgery is tomorrow
a very nice “catch up” with friends last evening
and a welcomed haircut for me

Our Journey Notes:
Waiting on the surgical center to call with T’s time to show up. We’re hoping that the proposed time listed on the patient portal at his Dr.’s office is still the same. Last time they called late morning. Ride arranged for tomorrow.

Brain scan appointment for me is closing in. Hoping to have some more definitive answers sooner rather than later – though I should be able to read the radiologist’s findings by Monday afternoon. Let’s hope that the next appointment to discuss the findings won’t be six weeks out.

possibilities exist!

3 Positives:
progress on two fronts – basement pantry and garage
one of the boys being to help with transportation next week for T’s upcoming surgery
blessing set up for T

Our Journey Notes:
T’s appointment didn’t go as we’d hoped. IOP is still way too high in the left eye and another surgery is on the calendar for next week. They can’t push it out any longer — this go round they’re going to try to put a shunt in. Not sure if they’re going to try to use the same flap area or cut a new one to insert the shunt. Let’s hope that scar tissue from previous surgeries including the buckles from the retinal tear (1990’s) won’t prevent a successful result. This surgery won’t restore what he’s lost, but may prevent things from going totally black in that eye. Thankfully, the insurance has been picking up all but the co-pay at the surgery center for his other eye surgeries this year. We hope they’ll do the same for this one.

3 Positives:
quiet reflective time
boxes checked off on the to – do list
a sweet note from a friend via snail mail

Our Journey Notes:
T has an eye appointment today. Hoping the pressures are down as he hasn’t been to the office in nearly 3 weeks now. Maybe today will be the day he gets the scrip for his new lenses.

“Forgetfulness” is happening more frequently, drats. Thankfully, T and A are being helpful with a few reminders — but not nagging. Yesterday was a good day overall… including checking off most of the list for the day. Really hoping for some answers next week and hoping the report findings for the upcoming MRI won’t be dragged out over the following weekend.
