Mi Chica

On Sunday night while watching Christmas movies and almost towards the end of the one we were watching mi chica asked for a small brake as she wasn't feeling too good, the next minutes happened too quick and to tell you the truth they were blurry at best. Mi chica had gone to the rest room, the next thing I heard was a faint "Joe" and the next thing we know is I'm rushing her to the hospital. Her blood pressure went so low that she even passed out. I know it wasn't a good feeling for her poor thing but it wasn't a good feeling for me either. Trust me, acting like a chicken with no head is no fun.

With all the medication she takes, it seems when she starts with a new one which she did the day before something always happens. While at the hospital the medication she was given made her feel cold inside, so no matter how many covers we put on her she would still be cold. After a cat scan and the medication her blood pressure returned to a "normal" level and after making sure she could walk without getting dizzy she was released.

It was a nice feeling to see her in her bed under the covers feeling all nice and warm and resting like nothing had happened. In one way or another she has been fighting migraines all year long, it has not been a good year for her. I pray that next year is not as bumpy as this one was, and if you are up to it don't be shy and join me, I have always know that the power of prayer is very strong.

I'm Almost Recovered

Oh man this was not good at all, I don't even know if I had the flu or not but I had something that put me down since Thursday night. My nose and the toilet paper and in a sort of relationship that they never thought would develop. I felt better yesterday and we were able have our Easter Dinner at my son's house.

This morning I woke up and got up to turn the shower on but I immediately asked mi chica whom by the way is also sick to turn it off. I really needed one more day to recuperate. For the most part I am feeling a lot better but now I have a body ache. Could be from too much bed time but I just think my body has taken a toll between the constant nose blowing and this pain in the butt of a cough that I too developed along the way.

Now it is very important to be well by Thursday night because we need to be 100% next week for our California trip. We've been waiting for it for too long to be all sick.

A dear friend of mine that some of you may already know is going to have an operation next Thursday. Wanda of "Brushstrokes from the Heart" will need many prayers and good wishes not only from those of us that know her and love her but from anybody else that may want to send prayers her way. A soothing comment from a stranger sometimes moves mountains, please keep her in mind during this week.


Wanda's strength in her faith is one of the biggest things she has going for her as she gets ready to do what is needed to do for her to conquer this. Please join me in keeping her in our minds and prayers.

The plan still is to leave for Los Angeles on Friday early morning so we can get there at an early time that will allow us to rest, after that it will be a hectic weekend.
