MIA
It's been quite awhile since I have been on here. Seems like there just aren't enough hours in the day to keep up with everything that I need to do. I will post some pics as soon as I get some free time this weekend....
Update on Dad
I just wanted to write a quick update about my dad. I am not up to talking to anyone so PLEASE don’t call me today. Yesterday my dad had an Angiogram, and we fully expected them to schedule open heart surgery on him. My mom called me about three this morning and told me that the Dr. said that there is nothing else that can be done.
The Dr. found that all of my dad’s arteries are clogged he said that there is nothing that they can do about it. My dad has had 3 heart attacks and after the one he had last May, he just hasn’t been feeling like he normally does. My dad is a cowboy, a hard worker and he has never been one to sit around and do nothing. Since last year he has been feeling sluggish and not had the energy to do everything he normally does.
When I went home last month I took him to his cardiologist. I can honestly say that this is the worst experience I have ever had with a Dr. Dr. Massoud, was aloof, and condescending when spoke to my dad. He told my dad that even though he only has twenty percent of his heart functioning, he is fine, and that his heart sounded fine. My father asked about starting the paperwork so that he could retire, and the Dr. said that there is no need, he said that my father’s heart is fine. He listened to it no more than 10 seconds and this bastard had the nerve to say that my dad is fine. He made my dad feel like everything is all in his head. This dr. is a worthless piece of crap. He has no bedside manner and seems like he is only in the medical profession for the money, because he sure as hell doesn’t care about his patients.
I suppose a big part of the reason that I hate the UK so much is because of the fact that I am so far away from my family right now. Honestly I have never been more homesick, than I am right now. I am praying that Allen can get a humanitarian reassignment and we can get moved closer to home. Allen is torn about this right now, because he is set to deploy and he doesn’t want to be labeled a “dirt bag” who is trying to get out of a deployment. As of right now, the kids are going home as soon as Allen leaves and we will be in Tulie until Allen comes home next spring. When he gets home or towards the end of his deployment he will apply for a humanitarian and hopefully we can PCS to Albuquerque or Tucson.
I will keep everyone updated as to what is going on. Please keep all of my family in your prayers. I don’t think we have ever needed them as bad as we do right now.
