Day Two of the Rest of My Life

Hey there Blogland......can you believe 6 months from today (the 25th) is Christmas :)
Christmas is my favorite time of the year....well honestly from Halloween through New Years ROCKS.... But Christmas, the birth of Christ, the church programs and everything LOVE IT :)
This also means though that in one week it will be 6 months left of this year......How will you make the rest of this year count??? What will you do different??
We went to the nutritionist/doctors appointment today ..... and you will never guess this I gained two pounds GRRRRRRRRRR..... Dr. had a LONG straight forward talk with me BIG time..... see either the end of last year or first of this year I had a echo done on my heart..... my left ventricle is mildly enlarged a bit thickened......and my tricuspid valve only has a bicuspid (it is a inhearited deformity .....) Lucky me huh .... well any ways I have lost and kept off a total of 4lbs this year (since Janurary) the other weight I have put on then lost the next month GGGGGRRRR But Doc basically told me...... Dawn you work in the medical field and you know things about your body and how it works....... so loose weight or go into CHF early ....... take your pick....... and he told me he knows I can do it but he is NOT holding his breath to see much of a loss next month ... he said it will probably be two pounds .....
That got me thinking abit all day ...... God has brought me through cancer (I had mixed mullerian sarcoma uterine cancer in August of 2007) and he does not want me to die from heart problems..... so I am the only one that can fix this ..... either I need to get real about it and deal with all that comes with it or I need to start explaining to my 5 year old why his mommy wont be here when he is graduating from high school or college or getting married ...... I dont think I want to do that ..... I want to LIVE ...... to enjoy life and STRIVE

So here we are on Day Two of the Rest of My Life

Tomorrow will be a BUSY day as my mother in law (gotta love her) needs to go to a renal (kidney) specialist as she is in the starts of Renal failure (they think do to her blood work yesterday) and I am the lucky one that gets to take her to yet another doctor .....then I have to work for the next four days .... wish me luck on this doctors appointment with her..... I want to go in with her so I can help her understand what is going on but not sure she will let me go in :(
HELP LOL
Have a great night and Keep On Keepin On
