Quiet weekend

We have had a relatively quiet weekend. Other than going to an area playoff basketball game and going shopping for softball gear, we have spent the weekend at home. Congrats to the Ladyhounds for winning the area playoff game. Please continue to pray for Monty. He has not been feeling well this week. He has had some trouble with fluid retention and headaches. He was prescribed some Lasix and Potassium. He has been consuming an excessive amount of sunflower seeds that might be contributing to the fluid retention. I have been telling him for several days that the sunflower seeds contain way more sodium than he needs. I don't think he believed me until his hands and feet began to swell. I am hoping that the sunflower seeds are the cause of the fluid retention and that nothing else is going on. Have a good week!

  1. Monty, I am so sorry you are still having problems. You are still in our prayers. I finally had an appointment with a cardeologist yesterday. It had been cancelled because of the snow. I have a valve leakage also, but don't go back for 6 months. Probably just old age. Love all of you! Aunt Lorene

  2. I am glad that you were finally able to get into the cardiologist. There is nothing like waiting for an appointment. I hope you are feeling well. Love you, Melissa
