Wow, a motorized wheelchair--like you say, finally!  

That new doctor of yours is really on the ball.  It's about time you got someone that's concerned about you and knowledgeable both.

I really hope the insurance will cover one for you.🙏🤞🙏🤞

[SouthernBee]

@geezerette : Totally agree and praying for insurance to pay. Hopefully will be able to mark a few  things off my long list.

I am very happy to see that everything seems to be coming together for you.  It certainly seems as though your new doctor has opened some doors of opportunity for you.

I know that much better days will be coming your way.  I realize you are putting much effort into making your life better.  I certainly hope your insurance will come through for you!

Glad everything is working on the boards once more.  I had given up for a while,  Please remind us of when you are going for your eye surgery.

Lubs ya!

@PamfromCT : Thank you. Totally agree and understand. 

My preop eye appointment is 7/8. My church friend that does crafts and sewing has her appointment on Tuesday. It is with the same eye center but different location. Based on my research, gave her a list of questions and asked her to let me know about her visit and information received. She has a bad attitude and stated she has no extra money for the expensive lens that she needs because of her problems. But another friend stated she inherited some money and wants to save it for vacation and whatever. Really don't know the truth but for me: my eye health is top priority. Some people thrive on drama. 

I am staying positive and counting my blessings.

Enjoy your weekend.🤗🤗🤗🤗❤❤❤❤🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

Dear preds  and friends

@Yahooey @geezerette @PamfromCT @SouthernBee @NEvans2 

My peonies  are still blooming  and so pretty pinkish!

I have been hearing the sounds of 2 different neighbors lawnmowers here in my house , mine was mowed Wednesday .

I am waiting for Fed-EX  to deliver my Walmart order..

i ordered 2

BEACTIVE+instant relief acupressure calf   brace relief for Sciatic nerve pain !

i have seen them advertised on tv in the past  

 Amazon  wanted  $24.98 for one!

"Walmart"..had them for $16.90 each...so i ordered "2" so i could have one for each leg...i saved over $16.00 ordering from Walmart  instead of Amazon!!!

Package was just delivered...they are black in color

adjustable  Unisex   One Size Fits All....need to find pressure point below back of knee to use.

Now i want to go for a walk soon...but will not try my soft knee braces until later...pain comes from lower back  and down leg or ankle...or both.

lubs ya!

@cowboy sam : I love flowers but have nothing in my yard.

You find the best deals. Enjoy your brace.

Hope you are enjoying your weekend.🤗🤗❤❤❤❤🙏🙏🙏

@cowboy sam 

I sure hope those braces you ordered will help you!  From all I have read and heard, back pain is very common for folks - what a problem!  
I have gone through much with my back.  Tried so much, and finally went for PT.  Had PT before,  but not with this excellent therapist.  So, so much better.  But I have to be careful!  When I was going up and down stairs, carrying piles of clothing stored in the attic I will never wear - to be out in the washer and dryer before donating - MAJOR PAIN.

If I attempt anything that will be a big strain, I will be sure to wear a back brace for support.  You are likely much smarter than me, and I know you will take care.

I am back to normal, and humble that I am too stubborn.

I know you will take care, and I can bet what you ordered will be a big help for you!  I do think I should explore getting a membership to Walmart, as I have with Amazon.  I do compare prices all the time - like we all do!

Lubs ya!

It is too bad your friend does not realize that her health is her wealth, as we know.

And as we age, we all mostly have more issues to handle.  
Our wall Calendar is pretty full - vast majority dental or medical appointments.  
The older I get, the more supplements I take.  We do watch our diets as best we can.  My DH exercises more than I do - my bad!  
You are doing the right thing with your vision.  Taking advantage of whatever treatments are there.  I know you will be blessed!!!

Lubs ya!

dear preds  and friends

My oldest son  and his wife just can't get a health break at all

They were in their camper  and she went into the bathroom  and coming out lost her balance and tripped over one of the small chi dogs  and fell!

She is now in hospital  and needs surgery on a broken ball on one hip bone😥😪  and will be having surgery Friday-tomorrow....

and

If all goes ok  she will   be going home Sunday  or Monday....and someone will be  be coming in giving her therapy  at home!

I am back on my anti-stress  perscription pills!

lubs ya!

@cowboy sam 

Oh no!  I'm so sorry to hear about your daughter-in-law's injury.  That sounds very serious and painful.

I hope her surgery goes well.

Even when they're grown, we can never stop worrying about our kids.  I'm sure she's in good hands.

Lubs ya. 💞
