Dear friends and family. While it is snowing in 49 states (even Hawaii has snow) I am sitting under palms on a breezy morning. A sweatshirt protects me and the palms keep the sun out of my eyes. Chuck ran a little this morning over a 3.2 mile course. I think it is time to let the reins I have on him loosen up. Next doctor visit I will take the latest CT scan, pray it is normal normal and ask for the Kepra to be reduced. Of all the books I read, the seizure meds are the one thing that seem to hold back the patient from recovery. I bought a new blood pressure kit with about 6 parts, and he put it together. B/P is 120 over 80…  He’s only on two meds, seizure and a low dose of cholesterol med (like Zocor). Had a blood test and we await the results for the doctor to cut out the zocor. We have to rehab the shoulder. As you know those of you who have had any kind of surgery that requires rehab, I’ll bet some could recite damages to unaffiliated limbs. Like hip surgery and you get a shoulder injury. The rehab people are trying to strengthen all the areas of the body. If I went into rehab, my shouders and knees would be in such agony! Couch potato personified. One day I’ll start exercising. First I have to beat up the dust bunnies and the weeds. My lovely yard has not been mowed or weeded since early November.  The weeds have flowers, but that is not good!!!  Thank you for your prayers. I am sleeping at night, and Chuck is feeling pretty good. All seems to be on the upturn. Love Susie
