Tornados in Oklahoma
Yesterday we went to the Heart Doctor and he took him off of one Pill , now only 16 Pills !
Then we went to WD and bought some stuff picked up our Medications and went back home . Since I took a Pain pill yesterday I felt a little Energy so when we came home so I went in my Garden and started to trim more Trees ! Yup , up on that Ladder again ! It was 90 Degrees and 30 Minutes in the Heat was enough for me ... I took a 2 Hour Brake and went back out there for another Hour by then the Sun wasn't so bad !
Today I slept until 2 PM because I could not sleep last night and I was still up at 4 AM . So I started my day late but I fixed me my Juice and drank 2 Big Glasses ! Now it is 8:30 PM and I am beat because today I finished the " Cutting of the Trees " even went to the house next door that is still empty since 2005 and trimmed his crap because I am sick of the Owner not doing anything with this House . He comes by 2 times a Year and all he does is cut the Grass and leaves it laying there . I will have to get off my ass and talk to the Parish President again because I am fed up !
Anyway I will go and play some Games and then chill . Tomorrow I have to get up by 10 AM to get \
W 's Ultrasound of his stomach !
We are both in deep Depression because of the Oklahoma F5 Tornado that was 17 miles long and the destruction is devastating ! That is why I couldn't sleep because it reminded me of Hurricane Katrina ! I was crying and praying for those poor people ! I will never forget how I felt when we had to go to a Red Cross Shelter and it was scary also . You are in this big Building and thousands of people are laying on the Floor on Blankets and Cots ! My heart is braking while I watched it unfold . So today we donated $ 200 to the red Cross like we did when Joplin Mo. had their Disaster !

Terrible week !
It has been a terrible Week !
On Wednesday we both had a appointment with our regular Dr. and by the time we went he was so weak that I could barely get him dressed and ready to go . By the time we where called in Hubby was looking so bad ! The Blood pressure was 70/over 50 and he looked like he was going to pass out . Dr. said to drink more fluids and that he was dehydrated . Nobody told him NOT to watch the Sodium now . When he recuperated from his last Incident when he retained water ( 30 Pounds of fluid ) and spend 4 Days in the Hospital , We were all under the understanding that he still had to watch his Sodium ! I guess we were wrong since W. was trying to lose weight , while he really needed to eat . He will not listen to me and I was crying by the time I brought him home and I had to see my Dr. C . He gave me a Phone Number for Hospice and that made me feel better . just to know that there is someone I can call put my Mind a little at ease . I had my Port flushed by Mrs. Bert and I went back home ! W was sleeping and I was glad , the rest of the day he was not coherent and he made no sense at all . Then his Brother called from Florida and I told him that he was going in and out of Dream and Reality World !
On Friday Night he was " packed " and he went to a Ordeal for 5 Hours . He screamed out in pain and I gave him a Pain pill because he was in so much pain ! Finally today is Saturday and he feels a little better !

The greatest Mothers Day EVER
Our youngest Son and his Girlfriend came over to surprise me ! They made and brought us a meal ! Beautyful roses and my favorite guy " Si " from Duck Dynasty is on my new T- Shirt ! I was so happy that they came over to spend time with us ! Well, our son saw that Hubbies Concentration was lacking logic ! He too believes that something is terribly wrong ! But last night he was getting worse with trying to tell me something and then ends up with a total different Subject ! It was sad how frustrated he got when he realize

I have to seperate my Blog , it will take a few weeks
Well , it is about 1 AM and I am sitting here trying to understand why things happen . My Emotions are running wild when I think about my Husband and his health ! He had a rough day again and I noticed that he had trouble concentrating and expressing himself with words . He gets frustrated when he gets like that . But he has noticed himself that something is not right with him . He told me today that he wants to be tested for dementia and Alzheimer !
In a way I am so worried about him but I also have to take care of myself ! I HAVE to go to get a Blood test on Monday because I will see Dr. C and I am sure he will chew me out since I haven't done my regular weekly blood Tests .
I went shopping around 11 AM because I needed fresh stuff for my Health Drinks . drank 3 / 16 oz Glasses and I feel so much better when I drink them !
Tonight he was very antzi , he has been trying to clean the Livingroom ( which hasn't been a " living Room " for 2 Years since I got sick .
This Blog was really just about Hepatitis C but when I got diagnosed with lung Cancer I started to write about that . But now I want to change it again because I want to make a second Blog about my Life and living it with cancer ! So in the next few weeks I will work on that each day 3 hours . Until I have it all separated .

I still have my Camper !
For some reason the silent Treatment has helped , he finally came to his senses and gave in !
in the last couple of days I have noticed that he is more confused then ever. Last Night he didn't go to Bed at all ! I kept waking up because I still heard the TV on . All Day today he was antsy and I kept telling him that he should take a Nap . Finally he gotten 3 Hours of sleep . His PTSD the BI Polar and the Depression of not being able to do anything ; has him on Edge ! And yes I am on the edge too .
I have not had a Blood test since 2 weeks ago . Dr. C will not be happy but hey that is the way it is . I just don't have the time or the Energy to worry about that . For now , he has to come first and that is that .
I did however started to drink Health Drinks and I want to see if it made a difference !
1 Avocado
2 Apples
1 Kiwi
1 Garlic Clove
1 Mango
1 teaspoon Basil
1 teaspoon Parsley
1 tablespoon Ginger
Juice of one Lime or Lemon
1 - 2 Cups of Coconut Water
1 - 2 Cups of Water
It gives me 3 / 16 oz Glasses and I drink one after another . I love the taste and everything is Cancer fighting !
When I skip a day my Energy goes down and I am telling you I can feel a difference !
By the way : I am keeping a Video Diary on him for right now !
Next Wednesday I have to see Dr Casey and he does too , then I have to see my Doctor C right after ! I hope that I have enough time to bring him home and then go see Dr. C.

Sometimes you have to make YOURSELF HAPPY !
I met with 2 wonderful Ladies for Lunch and it was great ! Just to talk to another Woman mend so much to me ! And my Friend T. and E . were just the right Ladies to talk to . One of them lost her Husband a couple of Years ago and they used to be like " my parents " when I first came to the United States ! She told me that she has never felt better and she enjoys Life and goes dancing with her Boyfriend but she said " I will NOT cook for him nor will I take care of him ! Been there , done that " she just made me laugh so much today ! When I told them both about the " Camper " Situation , they where also astonished that my Hubby would make such a decision without me !
That's ok ! I went to the Casino afterwards and won 1000 Dollars ! Hello ! Yeah ... it was my Day today ! I didn't come home until 8 PM ! I left around 11:30 ! He said " I had no Idea where you went " So I told him that I saw my Doctor then Lunch then a Meeting with the Ladies Auxiliary ! Yup , that is what I said ! That is my Story and I am sticking to it !
