A little more in depth...
Jul. 27th, 2005 01:38 amSorry about the brief "out of nowhere" post previously...
To explain...
My mother has diabetes. And with her weight condition she needs to lose weight to get the diabetes under control. She's tried dieting but it doesn't seem to work so the doctor suggested gastric bypass surgery.
My mom thought about it and decided to go through with it....but before that could happen she needed to get tested to make sure her mind and body could handle the procedure.
Her mental tests were fine, but during her stress test they found something wrong with her heart. The suspected a blockage of some sort so they told her she needed angioplasty(spelling?).
A few days ago she had that done and they found no blockage, but they cut an artery and needed to fix that.
But she is home and fine now....sore but ok.
Hopefully everything else will be ok. I'm really worried about her because she's gone through breast cancer, heart problems, diabetes, obesity, bladder surgery, massive acid reflux disease from Chemo therapy...among others.
Can she just please be ok please?
News in my life:
So i have 13 days left. I am a stupid emotional basket case and I count down EVERYTHING. So shoot me.
Why did this place have to grow on me so much?
I'm excited for my road trip however. Extremely so. There is so much of this country I haven't seen and just the fact that I get to drive through it is plenty. I want to experience an "open road" and really have it be an open road where you can see for miles in all directions. Sounds boring and plain but it's something I want to encounter.
I also have to leave a boy.
Now this boy is wonderful, kind, compassionate, drama free, and not crazy. And he's crazy about me.
He's romantic, and full of surprises.
He will be missed.
I tried to explain to him where I am in my head these days. That I am 22 and there are so many things I have yet to experience, and that I am JUST starting my life I feel.
If I don't dive into the pool, I will waste too much time dipping my toes in by the ladder.
I need this. I need to take this leap because I don't think I can do it. And the only way to prove to myself that I can is to succeed.
And I really want/need to succeed.
