Talk about your troubles

[Lizard]

Say a little prayer for me tomorrow. i'm hopefully having a little procedure tomorrow that will free up my femoral arteries. After a while of not being able to walk due to pain, hopefully one of my legs will be rotor-rooted and then 6 weeks later the other one will be. If not , then I'll be getting by-passes. I'm looking forward to being able to go on walks and exercising again. I'm also quitting smoking tonight. I've been weaning myself for the past year, and tonight 's the night for my quitting.

We are thinking of you Famita. One of my bridesmaids had a stent put in her leg vein last year and wants to get her carotids done. Glad you are going smoke free. You will do it!

My Dad had a stent put in his leg last year and wished he had done it years ago!

[famita]

Thanks for the well wishes! The procedure didn't work. Will have to have bypass done on thighs. A super bummer, let me tell you!

[Gutmutter]

Sorry famita. Not what you wanted to hear.

[prhoshay]

What a drag...but you've got to do what you've got to do. Did you ask if there were any alternatives?

[famita]

No other alternatives. I'll find out Fri when it happens. Thanks for the good thoughts!!

famita, I'm sorry your procedure didn't work. Let us know how you are doing.

I'm not doing well again. In fact, I'm doing a bit badly. I don't want to ramble on too much here. But if anybody wants to talk to me, thanks.

Johnny I know you have been through a loss with your grandfather dying. Our relatives truly are the greatest loves in our lives. He is always with you and IN you in your kind heart. That is absolutely true.


On the John Tesh show they said studies showed talking with friends an a psychologist showed that there was zero success. That is because you are reliving the injury. I think that you must put your mind on a diet of good stuff and starve if of the bad stuff. No no no to "what ifs." Just avoid people or situations you know to be hurtful. Dwell in good places.
