Man, this roller coaster is a ride I wish you two could get off.  This is rough for anyone to go through.  Several of us already have.

 

We got you.

The love and prayers the bass resource family shows is remarkable. God bless you Andy and Lynn. I can’t wait to see Lynn on the boat telling you how to fish.  Keep strong..

I hit the reply button and just paused. Nothing I can say or do will change God's plan. I only wish for the best outcome possible.

A positive attitude is the key to keep fighting. It’s gets tough, especially after treatments but it sure seems like she always has the best attitude. Keep fighting Lynn and both of you stay positive. You have plenty of dogs to help in that category. They truly are amazing critters. 

@A-Jay, all I can offer is our thoughts and prayers for y’all and hope everything works out for the best. We’re going through the wringer here as well and have learned to be grateful for all the highs we can get while hoping the lows are brief. Please let me know if there’s anything we can do to help. ?

There is nothing worse than losing a child, a life partner, or preparing for what may be that coming loss and yet fighting it down to the wire.  As you are well aware, life can be brutal for some of us and is one of the reasons why I have rarely been on social media, including this forum, as of late.  I wish you all the best with this knowing that nothing I say can truly ease your pain.  I hope you and Lynn continue to fill your lives with as many good moments as possible, and hopefully things will turn for the better and you will have many more of those moments to come.  

I haven't been in this section for a long time, and I'm just seeing this now.

So sorry to hear about your wife A-Jay. I hope you both are doing better.

I'll be looking for a positive update.

Thoughts and prayers to you.

Lynn's a real life warrior who possess strength & courage well beyond anything I could ever muster.

She continues to receive routine infusions and Thursday we went to an appointment at one of her cardiologists.  This was to access her current status.  They ran remote diagnostics on her pacemaker, which is actually pretty wild.

The testing showed that it's performing as needed and the battery life is sitting at 6 years.

It's an out patient procedure to replace it, which is good I guess. 

We got her an E-Trike a year or so ago, so she could still get out & about with our dogs.

 

Unfortunately, with her super low BP and associated balance challenges,

this is no longer an option.  So on the way home we talked about selling it.  

There were tears.

We are both routinely pretty stressed before, during & especially after any & all of these appointments.  This one was no different.  

Moving forward we'll continue to take it as it comes.

Lynn's having her 50th birthday in a few days and for as long and as hard as she's been battling this deal, that's pretty close to a miracle. 

We'll have a mild but meaningful celebration, just the two of us.

Every Day's a gift.
