Doctor Day

Well, since my last post, I have been to the doctor and back again.  As it turns out, there is a medical reason that might make me want to climb back in bed.  So, we are going to switch things up and hope that helps.  The good news is that my weight is beefy.  My husband has never known me so beefy.  In this case, beefy is good.  My lung function continues to hang around the same general vicinity so we continue to wait and see. 

Yesterday, I got to Skype with my super smart friend.  I don't know why we didn't try this earlier but it made me happy.  She has been trying to walk her dog every day.  I think that is a fair goal.  Like I said, she is super smart. 

The big news around here is that my friend got new lungs last week.  She is doing well and had her incision closed so on the road to recovery.  When I heard the news, I sent a prayer request.  This is just a sample of the folks who responded in no particular order but I think it is pretty cool:
