We have just returned from a larger metropolitan area about 2 hours away. My husband was getting a second opinion about a recommended surgery on his foot. The specialist, to no surprise, recommended the surgery advised by the local doctor--but suggested a different method and a bit more adjustment to one of his tendons. What he said made sense and my husband really enjoyed meeting and talking with this fellow. And not just because he has a Harley Davidson and they got to talk bikes and automobiles! So it is now official--we will be scheduling his surgery some time this fall after he has finished his fall projects and had the winter to recuperate. We'll be making several trips to accomplish this with this doctor--but have decided it will be worth it. Yee ha. I don't always enjoy driving in the winter (especially north), but this is the best option.
We are blessed indeed to have the resources and opportunities to have our health concerns addressed within the realm of the "insured." There are so many who are not likewise blessed. And I wonder how in heaven's name they take of themselves.
I was reminded today that my husband and I enjoy a fairly quiet and peaceful life. It has its frustrations, but generally we are content. And that indeed is a blessing that many folks seem not have. So I am grateful for all that is good in our lives.
Blessings to you too!
