It's raspberry season in our garden. Zucchini are bursting forth and the tomatoes are blossoming like crazy but it’s the raspberries that have our attention. We go out to pick them first thing most mornings. We pick all that are ripe, but a few hours later more are ready. They are a marvel!
The last lung drain I wrote about left me feeling really good for two days. Then, I returned to not feeling well. It got worse. Breathing was difficult and I was really sick. Finally, we drained all the fluid away.
The good news: my lung is able to re-inflate. A long-term fix is possible. The other news: I’m having lung surgery tomorrow. If all goes well, I’ll come home with a lung less prone to fluid build-up.
A new treatment plan is in the works. Options are few at this point. That’s not great, but I remember this is just like buying a house or finding the love of my life. I might want to have lots of options but I only need one that works perfectly.
Until Monday, I’ll be in the garden - picking berries!
