GardenOfHeeden's Journal, 22 April 2023

First journal entry in over a month. A LOT going on here. For those of you who are friends with me on social media, please don’t say anything other than here ❤️. For starters, my mother is not doing well at all - spending much more time just tending to her. Secondly, I have something going on in the vertebrae at the base of my neck. Have not been able to lift weights since April 8th. Thirdly, I have been diagnosed with an aortic aneurysm and aortic valve issue. Apparently the valve thing I have had since birth. Have had studies done. See cardiologist for results in 2 weeks. I’m having ZERO symptoms. Found it by accident. Might have always had it. But reading the test results I have a couple of red flags. I’m not letting it slow me down. These pics are of today’s walk. Felt good. Didn’t try to gas it. Just a good, steady pace. Hope everyone is doing well here. I’ve missed you all and just being here. 💙

I meant to add that only DW and my boss know. The reason for being discreet.

Sorry to hear about the aneurysm! Years ago I was scared to death I might have one when my doctor sent me for a test (maybe an ultra sound?) because he could feel a strong pulse in my leg. It was nothing. Hope and pray all goes well and you have a good plan for dealing with it.
