doctor visit...blessings?

Today off to see the doctor... great fun... I have had such a setback since my other doctor moved. I ran out of meds about 3 weeks ago and my body has quickly began to suffer. So here we are with a chance to fix all that. It is always a challenge to start over with a new doc. I need to convince him that I am a partner in my health care and not just a patient. I know more about this old body of mine than anyone. I need him to work with me not on me. Sometimes a doctor cannot see past the weight to know there may be other factors at work in my body. The weight is just one of the symptoms...not necessarily the cause. I have fought these battles for 20 years now and get tired of it from time to time...but I cannot give in or give up. I already tried that once and it just made things worse.So once again I seek someone with more education than I have to help me "get all better".

I pack up another box yesterday. My bathroom bookcase is just about empty. Just my jewelry boxes remain. T-my DIL is getting excited about all the plans. This is a big move for all of us. It will take a year of more to get us all moved and settled. It is a long way from Ohio to Texas...and moving 13 people will not be easy... I am ready to return to our neck of the woods. I do so look forward to being in the country again and building a life to share with my children and grandchildren. Of course having my sweetheart beside me and parents close is going to make things all fall into place. I am looking for blessings from this day forward. We have had enough trial...it is time to receive good and not evil, blessing and not cursing, and joy not sorrow... I am ready to sit in peace and enjoy the blessing of GOD...
