We dodged a bullet for sure. Hubby came out of surgery completely paralyzed on his left side, stayed that way for six hours. That was the longest 6 hours of my life. I was prepared to retire early and take care of him full time, I did not want to put him in a nursing home even though we have nursing home insurance.

Then the little 26 year old ICU doctor decided to shoot him up with something that would raise his blood pressure really high, she thought maybe his brain wasn’t getting enough blood. Boom, within one minute he started thrashing around on his left side. We owe our lives to that brilliant little doctor who looked like she was twelve yesrs old. :0)

I think I was meant to read this.

I had to change my Medicare plan the first of the year and the new plan has been plaguing me to make a “wellness” visit. (I despise the word “wellness”).

I told my daughter the other night that there was no way that I,at age 84,was going to let some twenty-something lecture me on health.

And then I read your post. Hmmmm ! :-)
