It’s been some time since my last posting.

  On April 24th I ended up in the hospital for 3 months because of double respiratory failure.  I was put on a ventilator for 17 days & was in ICU for 31 days.  I was told I had almost died 3 x’s. My husband was told he should make arrangements.   I pulled through because I believe God has something in store for me, not quite sure what it is at this point.  

I was then transferred to my own room at the hospital.  While in that room  I was given continuous multiple drugs thru IV but they weren’t giving me my high blood pressure med.   My blood pressure at one time read 212 over 197.  I told them I was having a heart attack & that I needed a cardiologist immediately.  They said I was having an anxiety attack & to take deep breaths.  Do you believe that??  My wonderful, amazing husband was there & saw what I was going through & demanded I be given nitroglycerine.  They gave me 2 & I was okay.

A cardiologist came into my room 2 days later to confirm that my enzymes showed that I did have a heart attack.  I was sent for an angiogram.   A blood clot was found in one of my lungs & so more meds!  In that room I fell out of the bed, my own fault.

I spent 10 days in rehab because my muscles atrophied before being released July 7.  I’ve been told it takes approx 6-9 months for recovery & to continue with the exercises to build up my muscles & lungs again.

I am here now visiting my oldest son, Jason, his wife Arlene & their 2 beautiful children, Bella & Leonardo for the month of August & to celebrate Jason & Leo’s birthdays September 1.  It’ll be sad when they leave to go back home because I don’t know when I’ll see them again.  The rest of the family will be meeting up also.

That’s it for now.
