Thanks, Diane, and you, too, Cinco. We've got our own prayer circle going here these days.
I believe people are ruled by their fears and if there's one big fat, ugly hairy fear, its going w/out nicotine in whatever form. If you listen to the excuses its a lot like listening to an alcoholic being defensive & blocking & parrying arguments. H doesn't do that anymore. You can imagine where those arguments got with me. LOL
Someone reminded me today that radiologists often "over diagnose" when they evaluate film. (H's old lung x-ray says 'cardiomyopathy'-enlarged heart which he does not have). I'm hoping that's the case here. His lung capacity is fine. His cardio stress test was good. Whatever it is hasn't affected his breathing yet. Dr. did tell him 2 drinks a day are a "bad choice" because he takes Lipitor. Hard on the liver. I knew that. He heard it but ignored it. Sigh..........
At least at this time of year I'm really busy so I can't sit & stew about it. What am I always telling you guys??? Hang tough?? I guess I'll find out if I have any tough left.
Try to do something fun this weekend-it's almost Christmas. Go sit on Santa's lap. LOL J
