Pray For My Daughter

My daughter has went to the ER three times this week because of head and neck pain.

They now think it’s a spontaneous spinal fluid leak??  Which would require a shunt....

Please keep her in your prayers.....she is still my baby!

My Wheelchair Broke My Dishwasher

Occasionally I hit my dishwashers door open with one of my 6 wheels on my power chair as in the photo above.....

I never thought it would actually brake the door and cause the dishwasher to start leaking. 

But in my defense I was always doing the dishes.

My wonderful Hubs installed a new one with a steel interior, hoping that it will be tougher.

Oh well, I am sweating the small stuff!  Thankfully I have a Dishwasher!

My Asheville Vacation

my daughter and I
at the Biltmore

I will share my vacation pictures from Asheville, NC.  My husband and I went with my daughter and my mother-in-law on vacation there last month.

We spent a whole day touring the Biltmore Estate.  The Chuhly (glass artist) exhibit was there to our thrill.

I loved the details of the rooms

I hope you enjoyed my vacation pictures .....  

Then I got to 

spend time with my grandson whom visited us for 2 weeks!

I will close with a smile!

My Painting

I painted the picture above.  It is the road where I grew up at in North Georgia.  It is home to me.

My painting skills improved since I started going to a class at our local senior citizen center.

The other students noticed I am “ambidextrous“ when painting.  It is because my right hand was damaged by MS.   One good thing out of MS?

I am so happy to be making progress in my hobby of my older years!

My MS Damaged Foot

My foot that was damaged by MS swells mostly in the evenings.  Since only one foot was swelling it did concerned me.

I went to a vascular surgeon. He did a scan of my veins and fortunately they were clear.

The doctor said neurological damage from strokes, MS etc. can cause the feet to swell.

He said I could try compression socks.  However they would be too hot for me.....the heat causes my legs to cramp.  At least elevating it does help.

Oh my! the aging body....have you ever heard of such?
