Title: a new update on libby
Post by: cody on March 17, 2009, 04:05:42 PM
I figured it was time to say a little nothing about something, it's been a long haul for libby but the road is only beginning.  I really don't have anything new to report on her physical condition, it pretty much remains the same, she is very weak with a need for oxygen that is only being surpassed by my need for a brandy.  I figured it is getting time to declare a mental health truce, with the weather starting to turn around a little I have decided that maybe the best cure would be to get her away from the ones that seem to be medically qualified to cure her and get her into a situation that would be best qualified to mentally cure me and might even help her a little lol.  I've called a portable welder guy to give me a price on redoing some supports in my bays and i'm going to finally blast that hole thru the bedroom floor so maybe I can claw my way into the pesky gasket that needs replaceing, hopefully it is just a gasket, after this past winter, I'm a little afraid to touch things I seem to break things easily but that is life.  I feel that by starting now, possibly I can do what we all know would serve no purpose other than to create a small dose of enjoyment, take a ride, maybe stop and visit some friends, maybe sit and say hi to some good people that mean a lot to us.  What could possibly be wrong with that.

Cody,
   At least it is good to her that there have been no recent "steps backwards".  We may be able to join you at M.A.C.C.  this summer.  We had planned to leave around the end of may, but can't leave until after our annual physicals and can't them done until June 16.  Doctors! Grrrr.    Jack

Cody, Glad to hear that Libby is doing the best she can and her condition hasn't taken a turn for the worse. With you upbeat personality I don't see how she can't get well. Hang in there, we continue to pray that Libby will heal and have the strength to take you on, like she used to.

Nothing wrong with that. Go and visit some friends and enjoy life. It's too damn short.

I would seem that trying to achieve some progress toward normalcy could be a good thing.  People often settle into a completely compromised life when smaller compromises would have worked.

Cody...it good to hear that your wife Libby is hanging on. We've been and will continue to pray before our meal about you & Libby & others everyday. Hope things will get better for both of you.

I might add that her personal home doctor and your family are in her best immediate care if the un-expedited arise.

Cody, Nice to hear whats going on there ! As a personal physician (ok, I'm not, but I play one on tv), I highly recommend a bus ride and a visit with friends. Sounds pretty darn therapeutic for both of you.. Its been an awful long winter for you guys...

Cody,

You and Libby have been on that Friday night prayer list for months, it seems now. I dunno if it's helping you and Libby, but I do know that being on there and your progress report makes ME feel better. :-D

   Cody,

   Life is how we live it not how we die. You and your precious cargo (wife) need to go live it!

   With respect and a loving heart I and others are pulling (praying) for you two

Cody, thanks for the update.  We keep the both of you in our prayers.

I agree, make the bus compatible with her and get out and enjoy the life you both love.  The docs may hate the idea (after all it cuts into their revenues and control freak tendencies), but I think it will do you both good.
