thanks to all of you who left such nice comments and sent lovely emails.
here's the skinny on the gigglemom.
this morning - the neurologist (yes. neurologist, because she has a slight fracture in her spine and the vascular surgeon called him in) told her that she had a slight stroke and that's why she can't walk further than 3 steps and her legs are numb and she's in a lot of pain.
so, there i was thinking, "man, i have to start working out so that i can throw her over my shoulder if she needs to go upstairs"
and there was talk of a rehabilitation center and all that
cut to this afternoon - the vascular surgeon told her that she didn't have a stroke and he didn't know why the neurologist would tell her this.
and that the reason for the numbness & pain in her legs is that she has a clot in her aorta.
yes. the very same aorta that she had the operation on in July of 2001
the thing is, this time, they aren't sure they can operate on her because of her pulmonary situation. she was cleared for surgery by the cardiologist though.
her vascular surgeon is the same HOT doctor that I found for her in '01
now.... saying that.... there was a comment or two by some idiot on my site that i responded to - and i will say this for hopefully (but doubtful) the last time...
IF you have a problem with what i write on MY PERSONAL SITE then move along little dogie, because I did not invite you into my living room so you could shit on my couch... which is, in a sense, what you are doing when you leave jackhole comments. if you think i have a lack of "compassion" or "tact" - move on. don't waste my time or yours with your inane comments with the hope that i will change what i write about, how i write it or my personality.
IF you have an issue with me or my site - i suggest you leave your own URL to YOUR website so i can get a glimpse on how your "compassion" and "tact" measure up
