I saw. Wily old skunk.

We're not doing to bad Hobbes. The heart doctor told Patty she can exercise all she wants, no restrictions, her heart is strong, but to start out with only about 15 minutes a day for a while. SO, our "Walkabouts" around Mingo are looking better all the time.

I see pippo is at 941. Thought maybe he would have finished this morning.

I think I'll leave it that way, folks will think you did it. I mean I AM a stinker ya know. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

That's great. I'm sure it's good for you too.

Ha Ha. Nice play.

Yeah, Patty is SO tired of being sick. She is really looking forward to this parathyroid operation Tuesday as well.

Might have missed something along the way but I think I'm up to date. Once her parathyroid is removed will she be fine?

Yes, as far as a LOT of the problems are concerned.

She will ALWAYS have to stay on the anticoagulant medicine though because she has three veins in one leg that are forever blocked off by blood clots. One of them is between 18 and 24 inches long. The other two between 8 to 10 inches.

Then the is her kidneys, the kidney doctor said that her kidneys will probably NEVER get better than the 43 percent they are operating at now.

One step at a time. Hope everything works out on Tuesday. You are both in my prayers.

Thanks Hobbes. All you folks here have really been supportive and Patty just can't believe so many "Strangers" are pulling for her. It is VERY different than HER family and friends around here.

The Yard is special. We are all family.
