Hmmm... Wonder what's next?

[hairbrain4]

There's something about birthdays. If something is going to go wrong it will happen around my birthday. For my 50th I was diagnosed with MS.

[hairbrain4]

Oops I accidently hit the post button. So anyway for my 60th I was diagnosed with AFib. This year I apparently have some blockage in my arteries. I'm going Thursday for a heart catheterization. Who ever came up with the term Golden Years wasn't living in them at the time!

I hope all goes well for you this year!

[hairbrain4 in reply to falalalala]

Thanks. I'm still having a hard time dealing with the fact I can get the senior meals at a restaurant & I'm 67!

Thank you!

I'm sure it will get better from here. On my 30th I woke up with aches and thought: This is the beginning of the end. hahaha

[hairbrain4 in reply to Sandydemop]

At 30 it probably felt that way! We have such a different view on life when we are young.

I have stopped asking that question I always get an answer and it usually not something I want

[hairbrain4 in reply to Turtlepie]

That is so true! My mind forgets stuff like that. Right now I could hide my own Easter eggs & go search for them tomorrow & not remember where I hid them.🤣

[Sandydemop in reply to hairbrain4]

so funny

[Turtlepie in reply to hairbrain4]

Same here. I hope all is well and everything will be good

[hairbrain4 in reply to Turtlepie]

Thank you.🤗

A quick, heartfelt prayer for your heart cath tomorrow, hairbrain. I hope all goes well for you. Let us know how it goes.

[hairbrain4 in reply to Mollyabigail]

Thank you.🤗

And things are looking up now! Right? You have a ton a new friends because of it.

[hairbrain4 in reply to mrsmike9]

Yes, I do! I tell everyone else that there is always something good in everything, even the bad stuff, I should probably look in the mirror and say it to myself too. I'm actually thankful I was diagnosed with MS. 1st it was an explanation of what was making me feel crazy & 2nd it actually got me closer to Jesus. I have a relationship with Jesus that I never thought possible. He is with me 24/7 no matter what happens. A couple of people have asked me if I was nervous about the heart cath & I said no, there's no reason to be. People look at me funny so I tell them why, it gives me a reason to share about Jesus. Life is good even during rough times.

This is not making me look forward to my 75th in August.

[hairbrain4 in reply to Jesselespaul]

I don't look forward to any year that makes me older. That's what I don't like about birthdays, every time you have one you are another year older. I personally would just like to skip them, then I could of stayed say 35 for the rest of my life.🤣

[mrsmike9 in reply to hairbrain4]

I am looking forward to Mt next one. I can retire then! After that, stop birthdays.

[mrsmike9 in reply to mrsmike9]

Mt??? Next

[lbenmaor]

[hairbrain4 in reply to lbenmaor]

Thank you🤗

[Tazmanian]

Happy Birthday! 🥳

[hairbrain4 in reply to Tazmanian]

Thanks, it was in March but when you can drag out the good stuff... It took my sister 1 1/2 months before I got my present from her. And it's ok!

[BlanketTime1]

hate that! from year one until my early 20's, i was always sick on my birthday! sometimes it was flu, sometimes a stomach bug, but there was always something. i still am pleasantly surprised when my birthday comes and i'm physically ok, lol. hopefully it'll be a good one for you.🤗🎉🎂

[hairbrain4]

Back in my 20s I was inebriated every year then I decided to give up alcohol & have been sober for 31 years.

[twooldcrows]

sorry about that but i was actually glad to a small point for now i knew for sure what was going on with my body ...not a good thing but now i wasn't being told in my head but not a great birthday present ....loves...

[twooldcrows]

they aren't what we thought the golden years would be ...the joke is on us ....loves....
