Lynn slept last night, and that was an amazing thing for him.
His blood pressure this morning was normal...and that also is an amazing thing.
Dr. Jackson said she would have her nurse call in the morning, and she did call. Only to be followed up by a phone call from Dr. Jackson 45 minutes later. She is simply awesome. I truly don't feel like us meeting her was an accident. We were supposed to meet her yesterday...we just didn't know it. She reitereated once again that should any problems arise over the weekend that we were to check in with her and then she would follow up once again on Monday. She did put him back on one heart med at 1/4 of the dose because not taking it at all would be a huge detriment. I've become a mad scientist with the pill organizer and the pill cutter.
He is more himself today than he has been in weeks and hasn't taken pain medication all day. We did a lot of walking today and he wasn't tired....but I came home and crashed due to not sleeping because of the dog. Its always something....my new motto is I will rest when I'm dead. Someone get me a shirt printed up....or several so I don't have to do laundry. 😉
Life is slowly returning to a normal state but there will never be what was...and that's part of a grieving process for me....but also a more positive way of living what we have left to live.
As I have said when one of my favorite shows Parenthood ended...It's time to start living your life....do what makes you happy...do what makes the world better....do things you can be proud of.
There will be days that are hard. There will be days that were better than you could have imagined.
Live your life...and live it well.
