#GoRedWearRed for Womens Heart Disease from Mom Kim

Even tho I have been hearing about this on our   local news, when I read Dory's post earlier today it kinda woke me up and said "Hey, besides having a personal connection to heart disease (my dad had it), I now have my own connection with heart disease/heart surgery" -
   see the POTP blog for those who didn't know.



#GoRedWearRed

I know I am late with this post but I am still trying to wrap my brain around that 
what happened - especially the part about having open-heart surgery, ME?
I had just been out doing some Christmas shopping when my body decided it was tired and took a nose-dive.
Luckily I was at the check-out counter so
there were people around who acted quickly
and called the paramedics.
That is how I ended up in the hospital but
this hospital stay included surgery to
replace a heart valve. 

I am doing better now - not totally and
it could take at least 6 to 12 months before that happens.

Poor Lady Shasta - when I left that morning to go shopping, I told her I'd be back in a bit-
well - that turned into 20 days.
Thank goodness aunt sis was able to take care of her and when I was discharged from the rehab hospital, we both stayed there for most of January.  
We are home now and once again, Lady Shasta  
is enjoying her Beagle bed.

Not sure when there will be another post-
I know Lady Shasta still needs to finish her
December review for Chewy.com and
we do know about the changes with that.
Gotta go for now.....








These are not enough for all your POTP, prayers, thoughts and concerns but they are a start.
