Update on Life

Well, my HIDA scan came back normal today. That means my gallbladder is okay, functioning as it should and nothing is wrong with it. My liver is still all messed up and that's the next steps to take - since we know the gallbladder is okay, we can focus on trying to fix the liver. I have to make a follow up appointment with Dr. Oh (yep, that's his name) and move forward with whatever it takes to get rid of the "fatty" liver issue. I know losing 30 pounds is in the future but I think I need to get to a nutritionist (who isn't my husband) to help me focus. Yes, Eric knows all that stuff but I need to see someone outside the four walls of my house (I really have more than four walls but you know what I mean). So, until the next appointment, that's all I've got. Good news as far as gallbladders go....but still not defined answers. I'm staying positive and that's all I can do.

Eric is doing well Uncle Jim. Yep, he's still personal training....going on 11 years in the business. Funny, you would think as a personal trainer, he'd have a "smokin hot" wife but unfortunately, it's not reality. :) Hopefully that'll change with this 30 pounds I have to lose.

Ethan is doing awesome! We have decided to not start him in kindergarten this year - he is not quite ready yet. So, today was his first "Transition" day from preschool to PreK! :) Woo hoo! He did awesome with the transitition for day 1. He will start full time in PreK on the 15th! Unfortunately Uncle Jim, he isn't in to baseball or softball....he likes it but would rather kick a ball around....soccer! We wish for football but he loves soccer. I'm trying to find out if there is a team around our community for him to join - he would love it!

That's about it from here! I have 7 weeks of school left and I'm done! I cannot wait!!

Bye for now!

Not into Baseball?????
I hope you still have the receipt for him. It's not too late to take eem' back.....
Heh heh heh.
Actually, soccer would be cool. I was never into that. Too much running around for me.
Good news about the Gall thingy.
Stay cool. Cool! Yeah like Ari-freaking-Zona is cool in the summer.
Great day.
Jim

Thanks for the update! I'm glad to hear that you're doing better and that your gall bladder thing is better.
It's funny that you mention that whole "smokin' hot wife" thing. You would imagine that I would know how to do anything more than turn on a computer, being married to the computer guru but I am completely inept. Maybe that's the way they like us...
I can't believe Ethan is old enough to be playing ANY sport! I guess since we haven't seen him since he was like 2, it's hard to imagine him even talking!

Good news on the gallbladder, it is such a nasty sounding organ, it's really best you don't have to mess with it.
But I'm sorry about your liver probs. I go through periods of drinking FAR too much, too often, so I fear for liver probs. But alas, 'tis my only real vice. A body has to have sumpin', don't you know.
Oh and by the way, you are smokin' hot and don't you let anyone say otherwise.

Move here and the boy will love baseball or softball... I thought it was just in the Mac blood - but aparently the Troll blood has tainted him... poor little Ethan - what will we do with him! :)

I'm very happy about your gall bladder issue - thank God! I want to be a "smokin' hot wife" too - even if my husband just works on computers - I still want to be his trophy wife - maybe some day! :)
