When you adjust to fit your needs

Originally posted 2018-03-02 13:06:41. As much as I love my wedding rings I don’t wear them that often. Why, you may ask? Well, it’s like this… I lost weight to swelling of the hands, feet and fingers. Then when I don’t have the swelling my rings literally fall off my fingers. There have been a couple of times I have almost lost them because they fell off my fingers. Now my husband… He hasn’t been…

We will likely drive as far west as needed. We are right outside of Camp Lejeune North Carolina. This damn hurricane is now a Category 5. 160mph winds, but doesn’t include wind gusts.

Where’s Ironman When You Need Them?

Got a call yesterday telling me my iron/ferritin drop even lower from last checkup. But problem is insurance doesn’t want to pay for it until it’s 5 points lower 🤦‍♀️ I told the nurse that I have my next surgery scheduled already. It’s called ankle arthroplasty with Achilles tendon lengthening. I’m really not sure how “big” of a surgery this is but I do know he said the surgery would take 2 hours. It’s going…
