So now I want to party!!! She is in great spirits and so am I. No, things aren’t perfect. She has evidence of several mini-strokes but basically there is nothing that really needs done or anything that could even be done. This doctor actually leans towards not fixing the carotid arteries too. So basically as long as she is feeling ok, we just go about our life as usual. She has an appointment with the vascular surgeon Tuesday. Not sure if we are going to keep that appointment or not at this point due to this doctor’s advice. We all trust his opinion very much.
Now that things are looking ok, I think mom is ready to get on board (pun completely pathetically intended) with the cruise idea. I have been wanting my sister, my mom and I to go on a short cruise to the Caribbean. Maybe in January. We had thought it just wasn’t going to be a good time, maybe not enough time for her to cope with dad’s death but it is looking like she is ready. And at 76 years old, it definitely does not need to be put off if she wants to go. She said she may as well go while she is healthy. She has never been out of the country, on a cruise OR on a plane. Neither has my sister. So it would be soooo exciting!!
Have a great weekend, peeps!
