So as it turns out...maybe...NOT a heart attack?

Gorgeous smile! And I have to add.... your SKIN!! It has a dewy, ethereal glow :kiss2:

What an utterly rubbish time you are having. But it could be worse? My grandmother always used to say no matter what happened, tomorrow will be a good day. Often it wasn't & tomorrow brought a heap of shit with it, but her optimism was beautiful.

Try to keep your optimism up. Don't let your mind get dragged into your physical problems, which I know is really hard (I'm the BIGGEST worrier you'll ever meet when it comes to my health) but it's really important to keep spirits high. Changing furniture & decorating stuff is a great tonic - keep doing things that make you feel happy & satisfied.

Big hugs.
 
@mrs-b you are beautiful inside and out. I am so sorry for all your recent health challenges and I am sending you continued bucketloads of good luck dust on your upcoming procedure. And keeping you in my thoughts. (((HUGS))).
 
@mrs-b this is all just UNFAIR. You're beautiful inside and out. Sending prayers and strength to you (and your DH as well).
 
@mrs-b your skin, complexion and smile, are just gorgeous!
Continuous prayers, my thoughts are with you and Tim during this stressful time xx
 
I am so sorry you are going through all of this. It must absolutely feel like just too much. You are showing such grace, strength, and humor! All manner of prayers and good thoughts coming your way.
 
Hi @mrs-b!
First, you do not look near age 60 at all--look at your skin, your lively intelligent eyes and your smile! Second, if you have any concerns about neck skin, then you might want to check out pluto-living on IG or FB. The schnauzer has some real wisdom about wrinkly skin in his talk about the magic of elephants. Third, I think your inner beauty comes shining through all of this.

It totally sucks to be in the hospital or having procedures done when you have such a milestone birthday (9 days, right?) If it's OK to make a suggestion--a friend of mine used to celebrate her birthday during the while month. I think this birthday is all about the YEAR, not just the day or month. You have accomplished so much and it's time to celebrate the whole damn thing!

Mrs. B. Lovely Lady, You are My Hero I admire your Strength And Resilience ohhhhhhh and That Beautiful Smile.
I keep you in my thoughts and prayers xo
 
@mrs-b I wish there was more that I could do to help! But you will get through this and all of us here on PS will be right there with you! All will be well. Then you can have a big birthday celebration. Take care x
 
Mrs-b, you outshine all your baubles. I hope all of this ends for you soon and you can begin to feel well again. Prayers continue for you.... and Tim!!
 
I'm not terribly articulate with emotional expression. So, I overanalyze, which causes me to watch and worry but stay silent. But I want you to know something...
I admire you. You've got spunk.
You are the girl rocking out on the bed in the face of your adversities. It might seem silly, but it's also railing against the dark and that takes bravery.
You're in my thoughts and will stay there. I'm pulling for you.
 
Aw @mrs-b you look truly wonderful.. Miss you.. I can hold ANY and ALLLLL jewelry for you while you are recuperating :) I'm trustworthy! -)

Sounds like you are in good medical hands.. stats are stats meh. Your husband is a peach of a man and loves his wife.. :) miss you.. wish I had come down b4 moving back to God's country here but it was so quick.. dang. anyway.. I'm always here. :) xo
 
Warm thoughts and prayers for you as you continue to navigate all of this. So sorry for the fall as you didn't need that on top of everything else! Hang in there as I am sure the fight will be well worth it in the end!
 
@mrs-b, I'm sorry you're dealing with so many health issues and not feeling well. I can see where you'd be feeling stressed and overwhelmed but please try to hang in there, you will get to the other side of this. It's great you have the love and support of your dh to see you through this time. Please take good care. <3
 
HI:

Healing vibes across the miles. And yes, gorgeous teeth (goes with your pretty face and gorgeous skin!)

cheers--Sharon
 
Aww, sorry you hit a rough patch on top of everything else you're dealing with. I hope everything calms down and gets back on track for you soon.And wow, you don't look like you're turning 60 next weekend. I'd say next decade looks more realistic.

Congratulations on having great teeth! That's something to be proud of and relieved about.

You are a beauty mrsb!!! You are in my prayers everyday. You've got a lot of living and loving to do and you sparkle more than any diamond!
 
I love red patio furniture! Can’t wait to see it ( hint for a picture). Some of my best decisions were made while I was stressing about other things.
 
@mrs-b I've been focused on school but wanted to check and see how you are doing. I'm sorry to see about your call with the neurologist. I hope they are able to call you non-elective and get it done so you are through with that part. Glad to here your GI stuff has been better. I hope it stays that way.

I love the photos of you smiling and think you are truly beautiful as you are. Plus those studs :kiss2:

I've got to get back to schoolwork. Less than a week to go and too much left to do. Yes, it is 2:00am here. I was up until 4:am yesterday and up and running again before 8am. I'll be sleeping next weekend!
 
Had my next Covid test today, prior to Wednesday's op. This makes #7. My poor nose!! Do feel free to drop over to the Mr and Mrs-B household, tho, because we DEFINITELY DON'T have the coronavirus!!

As the weeks have passed, I've been aware of a little more dizziness, headache and blurry vision, so I'm glad I've only got 2 more days to go till I get this procedure. I also see a retinal ophthalmologist today, so we'll see what he has to say for himself. After all the drs I've seen, and all the stuff they've found, how much worse could it be??

Ok - this next bit is rather black....

There's a small chance of stroke/death from my procedure on Wednesday. Only small - but the last time I had a similar procedure to this (5 weeks ago) it didn't go all that well. So, I've told Tim that - should I stroke on the op table - please keep me on life support till Saturday because I'LL BE DAMNED if I'm not making it to my 60th birthday after all of this!

And if the worst comes to the worst, I want to be buried in my new ring and diamond bangle.

Altho - now that I think of it - those metals don't match, and if there was anything that was going to disturb my eternal rest, it would be that!

Assuming this doesn't happen (and the odds are certainly in my favor) - my new ring and bangle should be here in the next few days, and photos will be coming to a thread near you this weekend!

I'm sleeping badly at the moment, and am very wakeful. I feel like I just need a smidge of stress reduction and I could cope ok. At the moment, I just feel a tad overloaded. It bothers me that I can hear my heart (I have pulsatile tinnitus and can hear my heart beat), so I know every time my pulse shoots up, my BP goes up, I have a string of racing beats or I miss beats. My dream is that opening up my left carotid will take the tinnitus away - which would be seriously awesome! Mostly, I just want to be able to exercise like a normal person. I like working out, and it's really prohibitive when your pulse spontaneously hits 120 from walking into the gym, or suddenly drops to 50. Mostly, it's good - but because I can hear it, I'm always listening.... :(sad

And I just wanted to say - thank you all so much for your support. I mean it. You guys have carried me and I love you all for it.

@Bayek (I miss you too!), @Queenie60, @bling_dream19, @missy, @Karl_K (brother in the battle AND the faith), @Niffler75 and @TooPatient (what friends you both have been!), @AGBF, @Matata, @Dandi-darling, @AV_, @caf, @Daisys and Diamonds, @pearaffair, @Alex T (my British connection!), @MissGotRocks, @junebug17,@marymm, @arkieb1, @Bonfire, @kipari, @Sparkles88, @alittlelight, @springerspaniel , @Cluless, my dearest @Mcgregor, @mary poppins , @ItsMainelyYou @amti, @lambskin (patio photos def. coming, but the process takes around 8 weeks!), @mellowyellowgirl, @canuk-gal, and even @Dancing Fire - who never fails to put a smile on my face.... thank you. Thank you all. From the bottom of my heart.

@mrs-b I’m sending you continued bucketloads of good luck dust. I also take it as a good sign your surgery is this Wednesday. Greg’s kidney stone procedure is also Wednesday (he also had the Covid test today at the hospital as well as all the rest of pre surgical clearance) so you will both be at the hospital Wednesday and will both be AOK. Fingers and toes and everything crossed. Hugs and lots of well wishes!!!❤


And you’re not just going to make it to 60. You’ll see 70 and 80 and hopefully 90 too!!!

I think that's kinda awesome, re Greg and me! Please tell him I sent my very best wishes. What time is his procedure? I'm 2pm. We can both sail through this together! ox

We don’t know yet. They are contacting us with the time the day before so tomorrow I guess we will know. I’ll let you know and I’ll think especially good thoughts for you at 2 pm! They’re letting me stay at the hospital the entire time so I’ll have plenty of time for reflection and thoughts.

(((Hugs))).
 
ETA I realize already I missed multiple people in my thank you list. I'm so sorry! I did that list on the fly, and I shouldn't have. I notice and appreciate every person who sends prayers, warm wishes, and supportive thoughts - truly. And I value them more than I can say.
 
Continuing to think about you and keep you in my prayers that you sail through your procedure -- and get some answers! I'm also so excited to see your new bling, you always have the most classic, beautiful pieces.
 
Good morning @mrs-b you are a spectacular woman! I'm glad you stated what could COULD happen, especially since physician's et al cover all that IN DEPTH. I believe you have some of if not the BEST medical in the world in your neck of the woods, I'm not worried.

It is scary I am sure.. but I Am also sure you will be fine and I'm always right.

Getting this done opens you up to recovery and eventually back home to that Oasis called Australia (of which to be SURE I will visit). While they in you cleaning out your neck we all love you here and will be looking for your first post and how you feel and then you can say OH no I'm gonna be 60. (cause believe me 60 is young) as I said I miss you, I figured I'd get down your way but I didn't figure on moving back here to hotternhell Texas so quickly so remember you are special.

We are with you lady, also should you want me to safe-keep your diamonds so the Mr doesn't misplace them while you are in the hospital I am totally available.

An AUSTRALIAN BLACK CRYSTAL OPAL HEART, can't get any more beautiful and I hold this heart in my heart for you.. You are the best of the BEST. so hurry up, get better and move on! xo
