Update on my life

Wow, how things can change from one day to the next.  Dennis (my hubby) got to have his cystoscopy yesterday,  (A look into his bladder.)  He had a blood clot in there yet, swelling of the prostate and a mass that urologist could not tell if was part of prostate or bladder.  This mass needs to be removed, and they scheduled the surgery for next monday.  At least we will know what is going on soon.  They are going to do the mass removal through his urethra, this scares him, as I suspect it would any man.  But general anesthesia will help.  I will let you know more when we know more.

The weather has been great here in MN, temps still into the 70's in the afternoon, sunshine and breezy.  I have been taking the dogs for long walks, enjoying these days of fall, the crunchy leaves, sounds of birds getting ready to migrate, watching squirrels stashing things for the winter.  Knowing that one of these days, there will be snow to scoop.  I sat outdoors yesterday afternoon and read the paper, sipped on chai tea and watched the dogs wrestle with each other.  Couldn't be better.  I am getting in my liquids, supplements and protein.  Made banana bread for Dennis, and am not even tempted to eat a slice, yayyy wls.

I'm sorry that your hubby is going thru a rough time.  But I'm so proud of you on how supportive and possitive you are being.  Keep up the good work.

Thank you, seeing the positive is easier than being a downer.  We had 2 visits to ER last night, first to put the catheter in because he couldn't void and a second because it was blocked with clots and wouldn't drain.  Top this off with a visit to the urologist this morning for more clot removal and his pre op physical for monday surgery.  It is nice to hear him able to snore right now.  Ahhhhh sleep!!!!!

Can't wait for monday and a fix to his trouble.  Pampering him a little over the weekend.  The dogs are curled up napping next to Dennis.  What a pic.  I won't disturb the nap session. 

Have a grand day yourself sonliberty!
