My mom's been having various health issues over the years, and now needs to have a stent put in her heart. Once she's finished recuperating, her other health problems (minus her kidneys (she's on dialysis for that)) will begin to diminish. I just wish she explained it to me that way, rather than putting words in the doctor's mouth and making me worried to the point of tears.
While I still had to work overtime, I only worked a 6 hour shift. The wine-tasting event was cancelled because of the blizzard, and I completed all of the tasks they asked of me. The bad news was I was an hour and half late because my snowblower died on me again, so one of my neighbor's friends had to come over and helped me finish plowing my driveway.
