Take care of your health

Life has tossed more challenges again.




This time, upon my husband. Although we are separated, we still keep in touch.

He is in Corpus Christi & has been tending to his Alzheimer's parents.
His father passed away, which I previously mentioned.

His mother is home right now, so he's been taking care of her. However, he's had his own health issues. He went to the hospital on Tuesday, Nov 27 for a surgery. They were to put stints in his neck arteries. But after testing, they discovered that he actually needed heart surgery. So they kept him there, the surgery happened Friday evening. He had quadruple bypass surgery & his carotid artery cleared. He's one sick puppy right now. Unfortunately, he's been a smoker for many, many years, so it has all caught up with him. They have him in ICU now & hope to move him to a room in the morning. He's hooked up on a breathing machine right now because he can't breathe properly. Any deep breathing hurts him. So if they can get him breathing correctly, they will move him into a room for a week. He still needs a lot of care. Fortunately, I've been able to call the hospital to get updates on him. He can't talk on a phone yet. But his nurse has been good at updating me when I call.

Friends have been sending their well wishes & prayers his way.

When I get to talk to him, I will remind him that he got an early Christmas Present as life is the biggest gift of all!




Please take care of yourselves so you can still enjoy life itself!




Relish life.

Live life.

Love life.
