My fight with cancer has been ongoing for some time. My life expectancy is only three weeks, according to my doctor. Nothing is beyond the power of prayer, in my opinion. You can include me in your prayers and leave prayers in your comments if you would like to pray for me.

This is my wife Jessica having dinner after a 14 hour day. She comes home from work, has enough time to eat and get ready for bed and it’s back to work the next day for another shift. She is up early to get ready for her day. She doesn’t like to be bothered in the morning and I respect that. She showers throws her hair up, grabs her lunch gives the dog and me a kiss, and heads out the door. At work, she takes care of people who are having the worst days of their lives. Strokes, Car accidents, motorcycle accidents, falls, breaks, brain damage, and more. She takes care of mothers, fathers, sisters, brothers, friends, and families. It doesn’t matter who you are or what happened. She will take care of you. She works through lunch and rarely has time to sit. She comes home after 14 hours, takes off her shoes that have walked through blood and tears, and just wants to sit down. I don’t ask her about her day because She doesn’t like to talk about work when she is home and that’s fine. If she does want to talk, I will listen. Sometimes she comes home happy and sometimes she comes home sad. But no matter how she feels, she is always on time for her next shift. I love her with all my heart. My wife is my hero. My wife is a Stroke Nurse.❤️

fvou or someone you know is taking any blood pressure (BP) medications or any medications that can affect vour BP you must learn how to take your BP at home or have someone taking & keeping an eye on your numbers. Take the BP shortlv before taking the medication and if possible, about 1 to 2hrs after. Keep a chart of date, time, BP numbers & heart rate. Take this with you the next time you go see the prescribing Provider. They will use that record to determine whether you are taking too much or too little of your medication(s) i.e. they will evaluate the effectiveness. You & your Provider will then determine which BP & HR #s thev'll like for you to have. A spot visit in your Dr's office doesn't tell vour Provider the whole story The goal of managing your BP is to prevent a stroke or sudden cardiac arrest. Failure to effectively manage your BP can lead ta these complications. Take action while you can by doing your part

His left eye no longer opens, which startec about three days ago. His right arm and hand also no longer have any movement He can still answer simple questions, but it is becomina harder to understand him When his Uncle Keith carries him from the bed in the morning to the couch, and back again at night, you can tell it hurts him. He makes soft moaning sounds and his face shows that he is in pain and feeling sore Anytime he urinates in his diaper, no matter how little, he immediately wants it changed He was actually in the middle of potty trainina before all of this started. This morning he insisted he wanted to use the potty and wouldn't accept no. So they helped him up from the couch, and Uncle Keith carried him to his small They potty.held him while he sat there, and he managed to pee in the potty like the big boy he is. He still wants to eat and drink. His favorite things are Dr Pepper and orange cream ice cream. When it comes to food, thev don't stop him much, but he usually only takes one or two small bites before he is done He is still holding on. Even Kage came to cuddle with him today

You’re not overwhelmed because you’re weak..you’re overwhelmed because your mind is trying to carry tomorrow, next week, and every “what if” all at once. That pressure you feel isn’t coming from your life falling apart, it’s coming from trying to control things that haven’t even happened yet. Slow it down. You don’t need to solve your entire life today, you just need to get through what’s in front of you right now. Peace doesn’t come from having all the answers, it comes from not needing them all at once. #life #love #laugh #start #today #fyp #healing #motivation #daily #reminder #grind #news #newsbreak #workout

Some of you are tired in a way that sleep doesn’t fix, and it’s because your energy has been going into holding everything together instead of actually feeling what you’ve been carrying. You keep showing up, smiling, responding, doing what you have to do, but inside, it’s heavy. And the truth is, that weight doesn’t disappear just because you ignore it. You deserve moments where you don’t have to be strong, where you can just be honest about how you feel. That doesn’t make you weak, it makes you human. #life #love #laugh #start #today #fyp #healing #motivation #daily #reminder #grind #news #newsbreak #workout
