Wheels needs a heart valve replacement – nothing new because we’ve known it was coming for quite sometime. We’ve made numerous trips to the University Medical Center 3 hours away this past summer, as well as local health providers. It has been an emotional roller coaster with conflicting information, but we finally found answers to most questions and feel he is on the right track now. We are waiting for a surgery date and looking forward to a full recovery! Posts have been much scarcer than planned. I have a few scheduled ahead and plan to continue Busy Monday without interruption — but if suddenly there is a change you’ll know it is only temporary. Thanks so much for stopping by each week to share your awesome posts. Stay warm — and if you are in a place without snow on the ground — no fair gloating!

Waiting for all the ducks to line up is the hardest! Looks like February he’ll have his new “heart part installed” as he puts it.
