Waiting and Fretting

[cnq50b]

Gosh Lyn, That wasn't real smart, but it sure was a variation of something any of us might try just so we don't have to ask for help. You got off easy with nothing broken. And tell your SIL you are acting your age!

Sue, Mitch, you two are on my prayer list for good outcomes & peace while waiting.
Lyn, you are on my prayer list for continued safe landings & less items that are out of your reach.

I read your last sentence & thought it said imagine driving into the ocean.

This made me laugh out loud!!!!

Vicki, you are on my prayer list for comprehension when reading these posts, so you don't end up following a recommendation incorrectly.

God bless this group!!!

I appreciate all the help I can get!

Sue, hope you get good news soon.

Lyn, that was not smart. I have a dear friend in critical condition in FL because he wouldn't wait for his son in law to help him trim a palm tree. He fell from a ladder. He did this last year and he is on a respirator still. We need to ask for or accept help when offered. Hear me?

Lyn my mom fell off a ladder can't remember at what age she is 86 now and it was a few years ago so thinking you are acting your age....being independent and independent and with mom it's need it done now! not waiting so she does and then she gets compression fractures...just be careful when you are being independent

Thanks everyone. Love this compassionate and caring group. And the laughs that go along with it. I kind of got that same thought when I read Vickie's thread about the ocean too and then reading farther brought laughs

Lyn, you be careful. It's tough to ask for help, I know. Been there done that. I can get as stubborn as a mule sometimes when I need to do something and should ask somebody for help. Most of the time I usually figure out someway to do it myself, bu.....

Good luck. Known how you feel. Dad has been legally blind in one eye since an accident in his youth, and is now dealing with a cataract in his good eye. Get as many opinions as you need to feel comfortable with any treatments recommended.

Sue, sending you strength and patience to make it through these next weeks of waiting and hopefully appropriate response whether that is treatment or more monitoring. Keep us in the loop.

Waiting and worrying is miserable!!!

Getting old ain't for sissies. Sue, I'm sorry to hear that you're in that waiting place. Lyn, what the heck? I'm sorry that you're hurt and hope you heal quickly.

Prayers for you Sue along with Mitch...
Like what Vicki thought it said... or another is diving into the ocean!!
I believe it was Art Linkletter said Laughter is the Best Medicine...

So sorry about your eye problems. Praying the worry is for naught and all will be well soon.
