Setbacks!

Autumn Poppies & Bird

Just when I think things are starting to go well....I get an education in what doesn't happen!

Last Friday I took my husband to the Urologist for a routine check and everything seemed to be on schedule, with the robotic surgery scheduled for August 30th. But later that afternoon he started bleeding really bad and clotting so it was a bad week end. No sleep, etc. So called on Monday and they said to start flushing to keep the clots out so we have been doing that every few hours. That is a messy, messy thing to have to do. And no fun for either one of us, but much worse for him. I don't know how he is supposed to get his strength back when he keeps bleeding so badly. He has no appetite so has to force food down because he knows he has to to keep his strength up for the surgery. Luckily the weather has been pretty good so he can sit outside (he hates being inside) and get some rest. I seem to have the washing machine going non stop and a lot of cleaning house.

I still find time to work on themes, though. That is when I can get lost and forget about things I don't want to think about. I really don't know what I would do if I wasn't involved in Firefox and working with Photoshop. You can only clean and cook and wash so much....Plus I still have hundreds of themes yet to update.

So I thank all of you that are using my themes and write such wonderful reviews. It keeps my mind busy with good thoughts.

Apparently some of the new themes don't work with Android. I don't know why and can't do anything about that so am sorry. I have a message into a Mozilla tech so maybe I will find out why and will let you all know.

Time to get back to work. Have a great week and don't forget to let your loved ones know you love them. Take care!

  1. I know helplessness in contemplating the suffering of loved ones; but what you do: attention, affection ... is the only thing we can do in these circumstances, while we wait for the action of medicine. Rest what you can and trust that everything will happen very soon. You and your family are in my prayers.

  3. Goodness! Was so sorry to read about the latest setbacks for your hubby. He has sure been through a lot hasn't he? But, then, of course so have you and the rest of the family. I continue to think of all of you and wish you better days. Hope he will be strong enough for the needed surgery later this month. Fingers crossed dear lady.

  4. Thank you so much, Lorene. I do so appreciate your kind words. So far, so good. It is looking like he will be able to have the surgery on the 30th. They may have to give hims another blood transfusion before or during the surgery, though.

    1. Imagine you both are counting the days till the scheduled surgery. Hopefully no more setbacks between now and then. With the bleeding episodes he has suffered, needing a blood transfusion seems in the cards. Please take care of yourself as well as your hubby. Will check back to see how things are going. As always, sending you both my best wishes.
