We got a call Sunday that my wife's oldest sister had a brain aneurysm . This morning we got another call at 1:30 am that she passed.She was the glue for this family as she'd alway's have a open door and if anyone ever showed up at meal time everyone got something to eat. My wife and 3 other sister's were raised in a convent from the time she was 6-15 year's old after her mother passed. At 15 she went to a foster home but that didn't work out so June took her in even though she had her own family with trouble's.
My wife and stepson will be making the 500 mile trip to pay her last respect's. I wanted to go but my wife told me I should not as my right leg is still giving me trouble after having a blood clot and this week I've been back to the dr's as now my left leg is giving me trouble swelling,hot and a lot of pain. I had ultra sound yesterday and that turned out good so now I'm waiting on blood test for Lyme disease as 3 week's ago I was bitten by a deer tick.
And they say when you get old these are the GOLDEN year's I say balony!!!!!!
 
The main thing that I have found out about the golden years. Is that it takes a lot of it to stay on the right side of the sod.
 
Bob a bloodclot from my leg almost killed me with a pulmanery embolism back in 2,000. Watch that! It might require you to take blood thinner. I spent something over a week in ICU from it.
 
Thank you all for the support !!
I was on blood thinners for 6 months now I'm down to asparin only. My right leg that had the clot is not too bad but will swell if I over do it. This new thing with my left leg is troubleing as I have all the symptems of a blood clot but the ultra sound show's none.I got the test back this afternoon for the Lyme and that was Negative also .So now I will wait a few days and see if the swelling and pain go away if not it's back to the Dr's.
