My Mumble :)

Well today was a 50/50. I have some further testings to do with my legs and well I just accept it. The specialist was tremendous and my knees seemingly there is more to it. As well, I am on more of the medication that I mentioned as I have some more testings to do. Yet come tomorrow I am getting out. And doing some things that are long over do. I feel as if today is the weekend, yet it's just a Thursday evening. Have you ever just enjoyed things regardless of what the outcome is? For some reason I am feeling good. I mean usually there is that feeling that one wishes things to be over with but for some reason there I am just going with the flow. However, after this next week is over with I am going to go and see my brother and sister in law. It's a mere one hour trip by plane and it would be nice to do to just have a break. So this seems like a great plan to me, I lived there not too long ago and above is a picture of the city.

So after today, I got the news on my knees, and I just accept it for right now and I am not much for taking this medication but I have questioned the specialist and what is advised is a continuation. So I take this med accordingly, but for the life of me I don't know how some could live within a third world country and not have medical coverage yet from my experience within latin america there was always a natural remedy to many things.

So this is just a brief update on my status, I am fine, not lucid or anything and just enjoying things for what they are. When I was returning home I got out of the car and took just a few pictures and thought to myself, dang it I am going to walk this way and take a few "snaps" from one bridge that connects the east side of the city to the west side. So right now it's kinda like Forrest Gump, I am not much for chocolates but I do see life as being like a Box of Chocolates, except I only like the ones with the marsh mellows inside.

  1. Some say I live in a third world country but I doubt. We have some very good specialists here that for me are comparable to other nations, anyways, maybe my country is featured as such for whatever reasons I do not know.
    Anyways ... am glad your up to and about. How's the way you walk now ... I can't imagine the pain you are suffering sometimes. I pray there's nothingmore, that the doctors will find out with your knees. You take care in all your travels :)

  4. Jack, It's good news to hear that your knees are slowly improving and helping you get moving about more. I'm sure the medication your Dr has you is certainly helping. I hope that you will be able to get out this weekend and do the things you have planned. I hope and pray that you will get this knee situation under control so you won't have any more problems in the future with it. I hope that you will be able to take this trip to see your brother soon. Have a good night Jack!

  5. They are Gary, I have a few more tests to be done which I wasn't expecting but the medication is helping but it's a one that is a medical narcotic and I just know how these things go but I was assured that it these tests will come to a finalization next week so this is good and then I do intend on heading to see my brother and his wife, hopefully before the end of this month. So we shall see how it all goes.

  12. good to hear you are taking it all in stride. a very healthy way to deal with what ails you....and to just deal with life in general. i had to laugh at your box of chocolates reference and liking the ones with the marshmallow inside. i'm sure you wish you felt more soft like a marshmallow in your joints about now! glad to hear the pain is minimal. have fun on your trip!

  15. Kim there I really am, I left my house here at 11am and, I will not take any of this medication. I know it's good for right now but at the same time, I think you know what I mean. An injection in both knees was much like lol a marshmellow as it's a cushion, but so they say there is a need for more test but that is not stopping me. The best manner I can describe it is a self cognitive....but the temps went up today and this trip is not tomorrow.

  23. Enjoying things for what they are is another way of describing living in the moment. So often we overlook the moments of our lives because we let a bigger picture cloud them over, or we just plain don't focus on the present that we are experiencing. I want to enjoy each and every one of the moments that are mine.
