It has been a hectic week around here!

 

Gatsby is doing very well after his trauma on Tuesday. Thank you all for your kind wishes for him! He is pretty much back to his wild little self! I am relieved!

 

I also have a request for you. On Tuesday two students at the school where I teach both lost a parent. Please keep their families in your prayers.

 

Also, please keep my mother in your thoughts. She has had a couple of TIA's in the last several weeks. These are not her first ones. She had a couple when I was in college, and then they never happened again. I am very worried about her. She is going to see a specialist next week so that they can check her carotid arteries. She is playing it very cool, but that is just how she is. I on the other hand, am freaking out. I had one TIA and then four years later had the real deal. I don't want her to go through everything I went through. I also feel like her doctor isn't all that worried about it,and that makes me really angry because it looks to me like if you have a patient who has a daughter who had a stroke at 29, you might be a little more concerned about it. I have tried to tell her that she needs a new doctor, but she won't hear of it.

 

Okay...enough venting.

Susan,

 

Happy to hear Gatsby is sorta back to his ol self :big_grin: My thoughts and prayers are with your 2 students as they cope with the loss of a parent.

 

I'm glad to hear your Mom is seeing a specialist; it's a shame her dioc is so laid back with her symptoms cobsidering her history.

 

I must say though I'm also concerned about you and the stress you are dealing with in coping with what's occuring with your Mom. You need to take care of yourself too. Prolonged stress is a risk factor of stroke as you are aware I am sure. Please take care of yourself, ok???

 

(((Hugs)))

hey Susan:

 

glad your gatsby doing good, I will pray for your students, loosing parent at tender age is heartbreaking, but hopefully eventually everything will turn out to be good, okay.

 

keep pestering your mom about TIAs, not to be taken lightly, yes we should not stop living, but atleast try to get bottom of it to avoid future sufferings.
