Balancing all the areas of health, business and family as you all are. I've got a couple of new items in the health category that I'm learning and Vickie and I are expectant grandparents as well. I've heard from a lot of you wanting to know, "how's it going?"
The answer is that it's hard work but manageable so far. I'd like to lose some weight but even with a very restricted diet that's not happening yet. I really can't explain this but I'll be seeing the Doc soon and that's a question to ask. Similar diets in the past have cut 1-2 pounds per week so this is different.
I'd like to exercise more but can't get too aggressive or it puts me behind (no reserves - if I do too much, I pay for it over two days) so I'm working out but carefully and modestly. Maybe has something to do with the weight thing, too.
Good news is that I feel good most all the time (and folks say that I look good, too.) I mean, with my normal activity I can cope and my color is good. I am thankful that my docs have my meds pretty well balanced. I am on rocket fuel and viagra after all!
No news on the transplant. I don't expect any until "the call" happens. That could be soon, not soon or never. Depends on many factors.
Folks say, "Gosh, you look so normal, it's hard to believe your heart is so sick." Yes, it's hard for me to believe sometimes as well - but other times it's not. I follow all of you as you go about your work and play and miss many things that I used to do but no longer can. I do enjoy hearing about your joys, triumphs, travels, activities, sports and adventures and I look forward to the day that many of these we will share together.
Being here in a vacation paradise - many of the activities I miss the most involve our beautiful water!
