Interesting Days
Since our last update, Kathy has had some interesting events … some good, some not so good:
- Minor in/out surgery in January
- Concerns about Blood Pressure and Blood Sugar
- EKG tests and 24 heart monitor check
- A tough few months in February and March due to dizzy issues
The surgery went well and she has recovered as expected. The BP and sugar concerns have passed the test of acceptability. Both have been checked for a month and have come out to be in very acceptable ranges. Her heart tests all check out good. These tests were all performed due to dizzy spells she’d been having. The source is still exactly unknown but believed to be imbalances internally that can be helped with some physical therapy. It’s hard to explain but she goes through a series of head movements to regain proper balance within so as to eliminate the dizzy feelings. She’s yet to be treated for this but will be scheduled soon as she recently visited her neurologist about it. For the time being she is on a med that used used for folk with vertigo and the neurologist hopes the PT will allow for the meds to be soon suspended.
We recently celebrated our 35th wedding anniversary and spent an overnight about an hr away. Kat was able to get into the jaccuzi and enjoy that as well as a short 5 day vacation with her boyfriend of many years. She also hosted with her sister and sister-in-law a wedding shower for her niece by decorating a beautiful cake for the event. One-handedness doesn’t get her to stop doing these amazing things.
So there’s the update — much overdo as always, but good things to report. Just a few weeks will be the 4th anniversary of the event that caused the need for this blog (4/29/2007). She is an amazing girl and does much on her own. This weekend she and other ladies from AGF (www.agfnh.net) will be going to a day conference for spiritual uplifting and inspiration. It’s a great time for her and the others as they connect and reconnect with Jesus. More updates to come — stay tuned!
