About Me

Well test date is set- May 16th 2017!! I am thankful I have the energy to get my house in order. I have been re-organizing "stuff" like a mad woman. I bothers me that I will need to have hubby in charge of the household for a few weeks. Thankful though that we are both retired for a couple years now. Need to complete the testing for final determination of severity. My home Dr;s. alluded to surgery, so am preparing for this news. I live about 3 1/2 hrs. away form Cleveland Clinic, so hope to have all in one drive up.
