Hello

I know its been awhile but I have been very busy.

Work is going well and Aaron is super busy with sports and other activities.

He is in a musical and doing great.

My right hip is still driving me crazy. Knowing there is nothing I can do to fix it right now is very frustrating.

The pain goes up and down. Not sure why but I guess that's the way it is. As before it makes me very tired most of the time. Doing work around the house sucks.......

I just want to get through this year and then get my hip fixed. Too bad I have 10 months to go!!

Looking forward to summer and Our Dive Trip to Florida.. It will make all this worth it.

On the bright side....Still in remission...........................

Happy Holidays!!

Hope everyone is having a great holiday.

Just got back from Maui! What a great time!

By the way, I got a CBC just before we left for Maui and everything is great!!

My counts are still off the charts! I am thinking I am years away from a relapse.

Thank God for that.

My leg felt awesome while I was on vacation. However, just a day after I got back it started acting up and is hurting like hell.

I don't get it. Why is it now bugging me?? Maybe it was the 5 hour flight but I had the same flight on why over and I was great for 7 days.

Now it wont stop hurting?? Was so bad this afternoon I took an hour nap. Hopefully everything settles down.

I guess its back to the real world.

Have a very happy new year!!

MRI Results

So got my results......

Not good. Doctor says I have severe labral tear. The tear is the result of my dysplasia and without getting that corrected there is NOTHING HE CAN DO!!

WHAT...ARE YOU KIDDING!!!

As I have said, I really don't think I can handle another PAO. It would be the right side this time.

So it is wait and see...

Don't need to do it right away. As long as I can control the pain or put up with it.

Unfortunately, it will continue to get worse the longer I wait. May end of with arthritis.

Feel like this Merry Go Round will never end. Its has been 3 years of nothing but issues. Its a Nightmare that I can't wake up from.

At least none of this is life threatening. Just a massive disruption to my life, my family and my pocketbook.

Anyway, enough complaining. At least I am still in remission, right........

Talk to you later.

Not a good Day!

This will be short and sweet...

Heading back to Seattle on Monday to see my Hip Surgeon. Right Hip is driving me nuts and it has been very frustrating for a very long time.

I cant afford to do a RPO nor do I want too. So I guess the only hope is arthritis so I can get a hip replacement. Not really anything I want to wish for but its realistic.

Scuba may be history too. Oh yeah, Aaron and I have been working on our Scuba Certification.

Let you know how it goes.

See ya........................

Summer Over??

It has gone by so fast... We have been very busy getting Cameron ready to go to school.

Well, he has now been gone for over 2 weeks. Miss him very much and no I don't hear from him everyday but never expected too.

I remember when I started school. The last thing I wanted to do was talk to mom and dad. He is making good connections, slowly but that's how it goes in a new place.

He is very excited to be there and likes all his classes.

Theresa and I had a great trip back. We spent a few days in Pismo Beach before heading home. We also stopped by the Hearst Castle. Very cool. He was nuts.


Good to be home and getting ready for the Duck season opener against LSU. Go DUCKS!!

My HCL is not an issue at all. My hip on the other hand is. Trying to deal with it each day but not being very successful. Not much to do but get through each day as best I can.

Don't think it will improve so just need to try to live with it, I guess.

Anyway, lots to do today. Just thought I would check in.

Take care and Happy College Football Season!!!

Happy Summer

Ok.....

This is the first free weekend in like for every.... We had a great time at Camporee!! Cams graduation was amazing....

Our trip to USC for orientation was very cool as well. He is very excited to go.

My last HCL CBC was great. No worries. Wants to see me in December but everything looks great.

My right hip still sucks but trying to stay busy and ignore it. Heading to Northern Cal in a few weeks.. Looking forward to a few days of rest.

Life is changing for sure. One left at home...

Keep your fingers crossed my hip stops freaking out and I will be able to enjoy everything that is going on.

As they say at USC....FIGHT ON!!!!

Summer??

What an Awesome day outside today...

Hopefully the weekend holds up. Going camping with both boys this weekend. Cameron's last Scout camp out. Where did the time go?? It has been 3 years since we all went to Camporee together. Looking forward to it.

I am praying my hip cooperates this weekend. Has been a very rough month. Trying to ignore. To much going on to worry about it right now.

I want to enjoy Cams graduation and move to USC...

I will post pics of this weekend.

Talk to you sooner I promise.
