Tomorrow is my 3 month review with my cardiologist. It is interesting that I have not talked to the surgeon that did the open heart operation nor the associate cardiologist since the August surgery. Every meeting has been with a nurse practicioner or an skilled associate. Hopefully tomorrow I get to talk “to the man”.
Hearing aids are coming for me. No more whispering behind my back!
Cataract surgery on my left eye is in my future. Jesus!
Dental work has been postphoned by the cardiolgist for at least 90 days. I think the risk of profuse bleeding or possibly contracting an infection is too high. After my 3 month review, I probably can pursue tooth repair.
If you notice, my body and “senses” are under total repair. I am going to have to raise cash to pay for everything. My 1.7% Social Security increase should cover everything.
Now some reflections on the positive side……..
Your Mom has been walking more with me on my daily exercise routine.
Grasshopper No.3 has started his own walking routine. With me!
I have lost 20 pounds.
I am eating healthier.
I now watch the Packers lose on big screen HD television.
I remember when I was 20 years old. I had a body with a “six pack” abdomen. I could play 36 holes of golf with no problem. My pant waist was 32″. I didn’t have to take after noon naps. I could drink beer without gaining weight. Ah, those were the days.
Life is a journey. Things change!
Love,
Dad
