I,m tired of waiting i mean Dans back from surgery,everyones having

their needs looked after. I phoned Edmonton yesterday a.m. and of

course left a message. No return on callback yet:(

Made it through hallowee'n and got all our christmas shopping done

the decorations for christmas done,well make it to Shantals birthday

today (Grandaughter) iv'e even done bit of christmas baking cus my

lifes on hold so much right now. My parents like wanna come now

soon after my moms appt in Regina and stay cus they figure i should

be getting a call to go and mom wants to stay here and be able to

get here before we go under 3 hundred feet of snow,This is so hard

on everyone the wait,im starting to think the worst as my family Dr

is going on holidays and here i am venting with tears,the waits killing

me in more than one way,my legs look like those stupid water balloons

you put water in,so short of breath now everything i try to do is real

difficult ,sleep sitting up,omg i can't do this anymore.......WAIT

Im sorry i usually do this at Dr,s face each day but they stopped

the i.v. as of today and didnt get to vent on him (poor guy) he

needs a vacation with the stress hes had with me,anyway i feel bit

better already .............Thanks for lending your eyes and eyes


I usually hold my chit together well,must be noones home right now

or over to detour my thinking pattern away from me,me ,me.

I better get busy and detour my thinking here and get ready for

b'day 9 year old celebrations,were taking it all to wildchild play house

maybe i will go slide and tumble with the kids:D:p

So sorry for the wait, Deb- you can whine all you want here- we always provide the cheese. Will keep you in my prayers for an early date. I'm glad you have such a supportive family.
 
Deb, don't you be doing anything crazy at that b'day party - you might hurt yourself worse :eek: on the other hand, that could be the quickest way to Edmonton - in an ambulance!

I know, it's easy for all of us to say keep smiling, but it's not always that easy, is it? You need to let some of it out from time - I don't, and boy you should see the messes I've made when I've burst !! So go ahead, cry, you're entitled to it, hope it makes you feel better to get some of it out.

Maybe it's time to find a nice new hobby?? Paint by numbers, knitting, scrapbooking, anything appeal to you?? Something you've always wanted to try (that does not involve kids' slides or rough play) ??

You know there's usually someone her, and most of us have waterproof shoulders!

Take care, hope your wait is over soon
 
Thanks for kind words and more cheese Phyllis:p

Aba sucks big time and yet amazing how i came to end

with my aortic valve 16 years ago through denial,i pushed

till i dropped,but i wasn't waiting i guess LOL.

Bina i was hi so to speak went down slide with Shantal at wildchild

Jeanette yes i know that was stupid i suffered for good hour and

as i suffered my family Dr. called my cell there to give me blood results

and i had to confess to the fun i tried to have........well i couldn't

resist, it looked so inviting.I wont say how my nite ended and how

ticked hubby was at me and did have cake and icecream for shantals

birthday with my Doc at wildchild at 600 tonight.......need i say no

more about it cus ,but wasn't call for ambulance though so thats

good and now it's history and i had fun.

:D:D Fireballs:D:D

Did you see how badly I missed your house? :D

All rightly then, I'll pick you up on Monday - 12:00 noon. have your bags packed.


In case no one else has heard......the "Fireball" we are talking about is an asteroid about as big as a basketball that flew across the sky last night. It crossed over my city and Zippers (we're only an hour apart). Sorry no aliens or fireworks.
It sure lit up the sky - its also on utube.
 
Sorry ' bout the wait --- that is surely hard, and I sympathize.

Meanwhile, Superbob will protect you from asteroids and aliens. :D:p



HaHa superbob if youda been on these buildings you coulda saw the huge

ball of fire at 630 our time while Freddie was still waiting for them to land:D

Well no callback for me folks and tried at 3 pm again and office closed till

Monday.......sigh....... i will just omg wait somemore there i said it.

I'm on best behavior my family Doc's on holidays till 5th or 8 th Dec.:eek:

I will be good and rest,rest somemore. My moms coming and there won't

be any misbehaving for sure to bed before i even get up,so to speak:p

Well last choice is to not think about it anymore ha!!!! easier said than
done.:rolleyes: Thank-you all for understanding my frustrations.

So sorry, dear Deb, for all this anxiety of waiting! Think of positive things about the delay even though it is hard and vent out as much as you want, hoping you hear something soon.

With my prayers for peace of mind and at heart:)
 
Yes, I had just stepped outside when the thing crossed over my house and lit up the sky! It was like having your night lit up by a huge magnesium flare from space. I've only seen comparable brightness from the quartz-lensed sealed beam halogen lights on my Super Cooper car.

The dogs were very excited, thinking that their alien masters had come to take them home :p.
 
seems like waiting is forever. with holidays ahead, we know you want in and out as quickly as possible. Nice that you could get all the holiday stuff ready while you still are able. You sound very organized and wish everybody was as organized as you - don't blame you. they need to get THEIR ducks in the same row. Wishing you patience and peace.
 
Morning everyone,

Some of my pm's i recieved are wondering,cus i made a note in

one of the other posts i spoke with my sugeon,yes i did he called

and long story short people are being sent home as far as New Orleans

without surgery due to crunch of delay of opening the new part(wing)

He is very aware of my circumstances from my family Dr.who is also

presently on holidays till Dec 8th or 1oth.

The issue is i need to get my valve done and the o.r. is overly booked

by other doc's and himself then theres that .....But....... i should be

done in next week or two,even if we get o.r. open for christmas eve

without any emergencies,he is willing to do it then.

For now hes asked me to (WAIT) till next week for a call from him

to see if i can get this done,see what arrangements can be made,into

this time frame and didnot hesitate to say i need to be done soon.

So we wait for next call from him or his office,hopefully it won't take

till after christmas.........But who knows for sure.

KEEP SMILING:):):)

Good Morning, Saskatchewan.

When I got your news yesterday I figured that you'd be posting once the news sunk in. I'm so glad that every effort is going forward for you now. Don't forget, I'm planning on visiting so call me and make sure I'm on your list of callers, trying to get past the nurses' station can be like going through a bouncer at a club Paris Hilton's partying in.

We're here to offer support so don't be afraid to call us on it.

Take Heart,
Pamela.
 
I completely empathize. I am two weeks post valve replacement surgery and for me the waiting was by far, far, far the hardest part. Good luck, someday is really will be over.
 
Freddie I gave him your number and you are on the calllist (silly):p:D

Johnfreeman..........Big sigh:rolleyes: yep waitings hardest:(
