Bad Days are gonna happen

Today was a bad one,

It started out with my husband short of breath, I don't like that and as much as he was trying to hide it - it was too bad, he couldn't.  His feet were swollen and he was having trouble breathing.  Then we find out we have lost a favorite neice.   I think we should have gone back to bed right then and there, Just pulled the covers up over our head and been done with it.

But you can't do that, so we kept plodding on.  A trip to the doctor then sparked some real action!!!  Usually we go in, he talks into his dictaphone, we sit and look stupid till he tells us we can leave.  This time started out the same, until I pointed out the feet and the breathing.   That got some response - finally. 

Willie is in heart failure.  They have put him on some water pills to see if they will help.  He had to go for a chest xray today, he has blood test tuesday, and an echocardiagram on thursday.  followed by an appontment with Hughes afterward.  So we have action at last.  It'll keep me hopping this week.On top of all that  I have a doctors appointment myself on Monday, the flee market on Sunday, Payroll somewhere in between.  and somewhere in there we will probably have a funeral to attend..  Am I supposed to be sewing??

Still, we can count blessings.  We had a visit from our neice on New Years Day, so we were happy about that,  the foster child phoned to say he was coming for a visit this weekend or Monday, so we are happy with that, and  we have each other - - -  we are happy about that.  No matter how bad things seem, there are blessings to count.
