Here we go again :(

Poor hubby is going to have to have surgery again in a few days. Going to try to de-breed again if they can, if not they are going to have to go higher and amputate above the knee.
Depression is hitting just a bit, trying not to......
Please remember my hubby in your prayers....Hugs! Leah Ann

I'm so sorry I haven't been on here much lately...............

I'm so sorry I haven't been on here lately and it's been a bit since I've made a card. If you want to see some of my cards, just scroll down....
Wednesday while out my husband Dr. appointment with the vascular surgeon, I get a call from my daughter that my 3 1/2 yr. old grandson collapsed and they were taking him to Riley Children's Hospital. He was having trouble walking straight, headhead, dizzyness...they did CT didn't find anything, ended up sending him home...then he started running a fever later that night. She took him to a Dr. where she works and he double checked him over, and told her to watch him very carefully because of his symptoms and gave him anti biotics...so far so good. Scared us all to death....
My husband has a wound vac because he is not healing so well and they are painful...so it's been a trying time for him. There are other things with this that I won't go in to but lets say you have to fight Insurance Company for your care every step of the way. When you face things like this that's the last thing you need because you can become depressed very quickly :(
We are hanging in there....Please continue to keep us in prayer...hopefully some day soon I can get a few cards made...It takes a steady hand to color and well, I do not have a steady hand right now....

I so miss blogging, cardmaking and everything in between...HUGS! Leah Ann

Just stopping in for a bit...................

Hello All,
It's been a tough time trying to adapt to a whole different life. My husband is doing good...he's had one nasty spill that set him back a bit and broke his confidence, but gaining it back. Then another one but he caught himself and didn't get hurt then. He had therapy evaluation today, although I'm not happy with the way things went, so will have to talk to the doctor. Rehab in the hospital were fabulous, but today just didn't jive...
I've been taking a new medicine and I think it's making me feel so tired, so I'm going to try to take it at bedtime and see if that helps because I've been sooo sleepy. Of course I've haven't felt too well with sinus issues this week, I'm sure that's part of being so tired.
I know I haven't stamped, just haven't had the heart too! Part of it is because I'm so tired I'm sure. Right now it's been helping my husband with his daily needs and afraid of him falling again, so by the end of the day, I'm just plain tired. Hoping things will get easier, and I'm sure they will in time, but so far...I'm just trying to keep up.
My daughter finally found a wheel chair for him at a decent price, so that will help his mobility a lot...hopping on a walker at our age just isn't easy if you know what I mean.
Just tiny little things we do daily are a challenge now.
Hoping things will calm down so I can at least get a card or two made once in a while....hoping the desire comes back..Hugs! Leah Ann
