this year - I am resolving something, you see this has been a little bit of a “come to God” month for me - with two dear friends/relations who are incidentally YOUNGER than me suffering from maladies that I have formerly “poo-poohed” being as I am far too young and vibrant to be victim to such things... well - apparently I am not because both of these people were younger - and more vibrant than I! (and no, they're not being victim to these things - they're doing great) With complete respect for their various trials I will not go into depth, but I'll take the warning to heart and this year I resolve to get a check up - my doctor won’t recognize me it’s been so long, but I’ll be making that phone call. I'm willing to endure a little pinch/squish/look the other way and pretend that this is not the most uncomfortable procedure in the world for that little peace of mind.
So - to my two dear friends/relations who have inspired me - I love you and thank you - and if you need a meal brought in I make a MEAN homemade chicken noodle soup!
Happy New Year!!!
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year! Let me know how those resolutions go:D
ReplyDeleteThe best implied new year's resolution I have ever heard! Go for it!
ReplyDeleteSounds like a good resolution, one I should probably join you in! (gotta tell ya, my word verification is trapsin, don't know if it means anything, but i thought it was funny)
ReplyDeleteAmen! I was just thinking about that the other day. I work in the cancer department and I get to read A LOT of info...so it makes me think ALOT!
ReplyDeleteA great resolution! No one likes the squishy pinchy procedure but it does save lives. It's really funny when I go for that, as I don't really have much to pinch (sorry TMI, haha) Prayers for your friends and their healing. I think sometimes God sends us wake up calls -- to get us moving in the right direction!
ReplyDeleteI agree with that resolution! It's good every now and again to do those hard things..though it often takes a big push or scare to do it.
ReplyDeleteWay to look at illness as a good weight loss plan!
ReplyDeleteTrue true about the other stuff. Funny how we have an imaginary age in our head where life threatening illnesses are more acceptable. In reality I don't think I'll ever feel I'm old enough to have a bad health scare. Even when I'm 95. So it's a good reminder that it can hit whenever.
Over from SITS!
ReplyDeleteThat is an excellent resolution!!! I'll join you ok? Then we'll BOTH be better off!
Hey thanks for the luv at CTD... and good luck with the doctors... BRING a friend if you can and treat yourself to lunch after!
ReplyDeleteI'm with you - I made my annual appointing last Friday. I already have to move it to accomodate Dear Hub's work schedule.
ReplyDeleteI wonder why it's been two years since I've seen a doc?
Here's to getting pinched and being healthy!!
