One prescribed me pills for it which I took for about a week and felt so lethargic I could hardly move - when I told the doctor she just said why didn't I stop them right away - how was I to know?? So an overdose of them could be what did it to LD - if so, he'll bounce back.<br /><br />BTW my lovely oncologist laughed when I told him about this and said that the heart is able to tolerate huge fluctuations in blood pressure - for example racing car drivers spike to enormous levels when they are racing... it was very reassuring.<br /><br />Cheers and all the best to LD!Carolehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16985978221627051493noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6622758739580732797.post-21337934350482851042019-08-20T17:04:55.695-05:002019-08-20T17:04:55.695-05:00I am praying for Summer - oh to get her some relie...I am praying for Summer - oh to get her some relief! sandieChatty Cronehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02232040517217024681noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6622758739580732797.post-86030815807302066822019-08-20T13:24:12.972-05:002019-08-20T13:24:12.972-05:00How long till we know if the injections were succe...How long till we know if the injections were successful?

I pray these injections will ease the terrible pain that Summer has endured these past few years. Its hard as she has lost so much due to her health. Praying LD will be feeling back to his old self soon and that God gives you the strength to continue helping all your family and friends during their time of need.<br /><br />It just never seems like a enough time in the day to do all we want or feel we need to be doing. I am asking for prayers for my husbands 90 year old father David and my husbands stepmother Laura as they are having many health challenges. He is in a rehab facility and she is undergoing cancer treatments. It appears they both will be going into a care facility in the near future which is sad but also mind easing as they can no longer function safely at home. We live out of state and it makes it difficult to manage their care. My husband went last week to meet with his doctors and discuss a care plan.Teresa Phttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12941565455848045138noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6622758739580732797.post-48192237846300488262019-08-20T09:19:07.796-05:002019-08-20T09:19:07.796-05:00I will be praying the new meds do give Summer some...I will be praying the new meds do give Summer some relief.

You are right about being pulled in so many directions. I see my local grands a good bit but feel guilty about not seeing the others as much as I would like.

I am thankful that my children are raised, but now the grand doll feels as though she is just as much my responsibility. I hope that this procedure helps Summer as I know how awful back pain can be after my husband woke and could not move without being in excruciating pain!<br /><br />Hope Louis Dean gets to feeling better as well.

It's so sad what has happened. Pain takes our lives and energy. I agree with you. We absolutely have to take care of ourselves. I pray for God to make me strong to take care of myself, Ted and all the others who may need me. Because usually in a woman's life that is how it is. Because our children are grown , doesn't mean they don't need our help, many times. <br /> Yes, your grands are growing taller. Soon they will be taller than you. My Emma Pooh is taller than me . LD, needed those precious hugs. I am praying for all of you there.

You do love well, your a great sister, mom, grandma. Maybe the how you’re able to love will look different than it has in the past, but will be still meaningful.<br /><br />Glad to hear you’ve figured out what’s going on with Louis Dean!<br /><br />Deanna Rabe - Creekside Cottage Bloghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16133684514103206137noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6622758739580732797.post-63022292022758566132019-08-20T04:21:43.299-05:002019-08-20T04:21:43.299-05:00I am praying for Summer.

Although I am no where near as badly off as she is, it does give me empathy for her. I am adding her to the prayer list at Bible Study today.<br /><br />I am looking at the quads and thinking where did the time go. It is hard to believe they are in second grade already. I'm so glad you were able to spend time with them.<br /><br />Hope Louis Dean's tiredness is as simple as taking too much medicine. He is always so much on the go it must seem strange to have him resting so much.<br /><br />But, Linda, take care of yourself too. I know you want to be there for your family so you need to do what's good for you. Don't spread yourself too thin.Kathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05673288414533354350noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6622758739580732797.post-65245574728626547042019-08-20T04:15:47.081-05:002019-08-20T04:15:47.081-05:00I feel you!

This stays and burrows into the deep dark corners of my heart and soul everyday. <br />Linda -- you are enough!!
