He told me he was sorry I had to sell my home there before I left.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">Anyway end result is that <b>the report given me from Utah was not accurate he said. The echo actually was the same result as before but they interpreted it wrong. He said I still have severe aorta valve stenosis and am eligible for the TAVR anytime</b> I want it. However, the procedure is determined more by symptoms I am having than the actual reality of the severity. So I need to report if <b>shortness of breath gets worse or I have any other symptoms. </b></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><b>I should exercise more and keep up the walking and good eating and care,</b> etc.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">He was most <b>impressed by the lowering of my cholesterol </b>so I explained about Dr. Serry explaining why I should try it and my internist talking me into at least 3 months. I have always had a bad reaction to statins and since it did not help John I have not wanted to take them. <b>However, rosuvastatin has not caused any side affects and has really lowered my cholesterol!!! </b> So, been on it since fall 2020. Feeling good!</p><p style="text-align: justify;">Also numbness of hands at night is not poor circulation, from nerve damage like carpal tunnel. Need to check.</p><p style="text-align: justify;"><b>Follow Up June 2. </b> I did see my Primary and <b>she had me wear wrist braces to sleep at night to prevent my hands from going numb and voila, no more numb hands.</b> She also approved me for physical therapy and possible surgery on my carpal tunnel hands and made an appointment for the evaluation on June 16 at Torrey Pines Scripps.</p><p style="text-align: justify;"><b>Follow Up June 15</b>, Monday a scheduler from Torrey Pines called and said since I lived in Carlsbad wouldn't I rather have my appointment in Encinitas. I said I had figured Encinitas did not have the therapist and so I was sent to Torrey Pines. No, she said they did and I could call the number which she gave me and get scheduled. Since I was looking at more than one appointment I agreed to do it.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">However, when I talked to Encinitas scheduler it was made clear to me that they were short on therapists and had intentionally sent me to Torrey Pines and since I had cancelled the appointment they could not help me get it back. <b>(The scheduler had put on the form I had wished to cancel the appointment and as if she had nothing to do with it.)</b> When I explained to her what happened she said she would have her boss call me. I actually got <b>two calls of apology</b> and explanation <b>but they were so short I would have to go back and reschedule. We are talking another two weeks, month?</b></p><p style="text-align: justify;">So next day the Torrey Pines therapist wrote on my Scripps Internet Chart and said she was sorry I had cancelled but if I still needed help she was there, just not for awhile. I sent an explanation back and then I decided I did not want to be traveling by Uber for my appointments all the way to Torrey Pines while Linda was gone after the last experience I had with that so I wrote back and said I would just <b>handle my problem with my braces etc and not do activities which caused pain</b>. <b>After all it is not as if I have a job on the line or anything. I do not have to correct carpal tunnel surgery at 90 years of age. I just avoid things and handle the problem.</b></p><p style="text-align: justify;">But what this Torrey Pines Scheduler did to me by phoning me and having me reschedule without direction from anyone because she assumed she knew what she was doing is one practice I drummed over and over to my loan processing assistants...<b>NEVER ASSUME</b>. <b>Too often an assistant does not want to appear that she does not know everything so she gives out erroneous information and it causes problems for everyone as it did this week. Never Assume you know, IF YOU ARE NOT SURE, SAY YOU WILL GET THE CORRECT ANSWER AND CALL THEM BACK AND/OR NEVER CALL AND DIRECT A CLIENT UNLESS YOU HAVE ABSOLUTE KNOWLEDGE OF WHAT YOU ARE TELLING THEM.</b></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><br /></p>Janet http://www.blogger.com/profile/00958600686323778939noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17966449.post-9013956083218985392023-06-11T17:07:00.006-07:002023-06-14T12:49:29.100-07:00Janet as a Swedish Grandma<p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Meagan created this at the Family Center at Temple Square.

I cannot walk that far anymore and would be much to slow, even if I could go all that way. <b>So I do not beach anymore </b>but it is a lovely place to live with very lovely people to speak to and watch at the park. Directly <b>across from my windows is the park </b>where basketball, racket ball, swimming and playing on slides and things takes place. It is a great place to walk my dog and just enjoy the whole scene. I<b> am enjoying it very much </b>and the weather is marvelous even though cloudy, gloomy certain times of the year.<p></p><div><br /></div>Janet http://www.blogger.com/profile/00958600686323778939noreply@blogger.com0Carlsbad, CA, USA33.1580933 -117.35059394.8478594638211518 -152.5068439 61.468327136178843 -82.1943439tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17966449.post-67998677978347196622023-06-06T07:45:00.008-07:002023-07-02T06:12:09.874-07:00Linda Discovers This Chocolate Cake!!!<p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

And Cholesterol Under Control<p>I saw a <b>Scripps Ophthalmologist and the news was all good</b>. The Fuchs Dystrophy on the left eye is <b>growing so slow he</b> thinks that I will die before it really chooses to bother me. Also my glasses still have a <b>great prescription and I do not need to change them for now. </b> He says especially if the prism is working so well because that is <b>hard to achieve</b>. He says when my eyes are irritated it is eyestrain and not the Fuchs causing the problem.</p><p>Last year I saw a Ear, Nose and Throat and he started me on the generic version of Flonase which I use every night and I never have a stuffed nose anymore. That was the greatest appointment outcome because I<b> had been sent for sleep apnea problems and because I could not breathe they said I had it and was going to have to wear those horrible things at night</b> and then I suggested the ENT idea and my primary said definitely and it worked!!! <b>ENT prescribes Flonase and no sleep apnea!!! No sleep apnea at all and I have been so grateful for that.</b></p><p>Also after all the blood work numbers came back the Dr told me my <b>cholesterol was under control </b>and <b>so is my blood pressure and sucrose. Yea!!! Also my weight. I do need to exercise more though. Longer walks will do.</b></p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjLCYikSY9p7fDHWizp4M-V8zWArWPmSzgiJBi5dxdYMw9jDvkO1cYVJl7533wfPBH4_zx8I83oF1VlzaUstZRMjBB0dea4Z9Q0IWliP6N4KfdEh-MY7FyPgsr9QNBFIKEP17Nh32P4ozVJiN2NclN8cfcUbWpqkti_kZO1sPUEFumBzIpA--BH/s415/Resized_20230510_094012.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="415" data-original-width="347" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjLCYikSY9p7fDHWizp4M-V8zWArWPmSzgiJBi5dxdYMw9jDvkO1cYVJl7533wfPBH4_zx8I83oF1VlzaUstZRMjBB0dea4Z9Q0IWliP6N4KfdEh-MY7FyPgsr9QNBFIKEP17Nh32P4ozVJiN2NclN8cfcUbWpqkti_kZO1sPUEFumBzIpA--BH/w335-h400/Resized_20230510_094012.jpeg" width="335" /></a></div><br /><b><br /></b><p></p>Janet http://www.blogger.com/profile/00958600686323778939noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17966449.post-37772141098581690192023-03-27T19:43:00.019-07:002023-07-02T06:30:13.604-07:00The Lyft, Uber Dilemma<p>Today my appointment with <b>Mohs Surgery Doc was at Shiley Pavillion on Torrey Pines</b>. Linda and James were both going to be out of town and my insurance provides rides so I called for an <b>Uber.</b></p><p>All worked fine until we got there and d<b>river wanted to drop me three buildings and a parking lot from </b>where I was going. <b> I finally got him to take me back to Shiley and he said he would pick me up at same place.</b></p><p>Ha! At 11:45 I was told my driver was on the way and then he had arrived. <b> Problem is it was Marcos and not Carlos and he had same problem as morning driver and had instructions to pick me up at wrong place.</b></p><p>I talked with <b>Scan Transportation and she proceeded to keep me on line while we went through three or four Uber drivers who all had same problem and could not find me.</b> I was now very tired and frustrated.</p><p>She was stoic and <b>could not understand the problem</b> but extremely sympathetic and determined to get me picked up. Finally <b>Samy, a Lyft Driver was called and I said the magic words that told him where I was at. I said, closer to the Torrey Pines Golf Course, and he came right to me. </b></p><p>By now I was frantic and had James and Mary ready to come pick me up ( he was back from SL) if this one did not find me but he did. <b>It was almost 1:30 before I got home. What an experience.</b></p><p>However, I did find out <b>why there was a problem. The Lyft driver, a little younger than Meagan, said the data that Scan sent to them showed the big area of all the Scripps buildings but not the numbers except for the main building which is 10666...I was at Shiley 10820. </b> He said the data would point to a place a little north or south of the main building <b>but unless someone gave them more of a clue they could not see addresses, etc. </b> He said he would have known instantly if I had said next to the big hotel by the golf course.</p><p>Meantime, the <b>lady from Scan thought it was Uber and Lyft data that was bad </b>and she said we will never know what the problem is unless you get to ride back with one of them, weird right? Is this Scan driver stuff new or just a problem here where there are so many buildings in a row???</p><p><b>UPDATE: When I wrote a letter to Scan and explained the problem they treated it as a grievance letter from me, apologized, and never learned a thing from it. So I am never using their transportation again.</b></p><p> </p>Janet http://www.blogger.com/profile/00958600686323778939noreply@blogger.com0La Jolla, San Diego, CA, USA32.8328112 -117.27127174.5225773638211564 -152.4275217 61.143045036178847 -82.1150217tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17966449.post-77431594547569734702023-03-27T19:25:00.006-07:002023-03-27T19:44:00.674-07:00It Is a Good Day!!!<p>I met my new Primary Doctor on March 14th and what a dynamo!!! In two days she had all tests I needed, additional appointments needed with any and all doctors ordered. </p><p>I am working with a dermatologist on eczema etc. Having mohl surgery on hand scheduled, addressed all other itching problems.</p><p>Have medication for edema she saw immediately and medicine caused additional itching on lower legs but all well and have lost at least 10 lbs or more.</p><p>Have appointment with opthomologist so will be getting new glasses and hopefully help on the Fuchs Dystrophy.</p><p>Have the new lower dentures and will work with them and eventually have a permanent set that I will actually be able to chew only end of year. Some sensitivity issues but working on them.</p><p>Had chest exrays because of edema and no pneumonia type stuff but need to get all fluid out. There has been additional heart enlargement, etc. Working on this.</p><p>Blood tests came back and have a few high numbers on creatine and urea but liver does not look too bad and phosphorous and calcium are under control. Have new info to work with to keep balanced and prevent more damage. All other numbers look good. Cholesterol lowest in 60 years since began monitoring.</p><p>Have not experience anymore shortness of breath, no aching in legs. I got very stiff and sore when I was energetically doing over an above on collage, puzzles, sorting of records, pictures etc. But it is all done and I am feeling great.</p><p>I think my hormones are balanced for the first time in ages and without the patch, etc. Living here and eating the right foods has made a big difference in my life. What we eat is what it is all about...stay away from processed and fast food, eat clean. Listen to my body and what it can tolerate. With all my allergies and etc. it has been a learning process since Hurricane Katrina ruined my digestive system but I have always had allergies and such. My skin is better than every, wish I had this skin in my teen age years. </p><p>Yes, I do get tired but I take a nap!!! I was having night sweats and found it was the throw I was wrapping myself in to stay warm. All well, there.</p><p>Anyway after the Echo results come back I am sure we will discuss more but I am thrilled to be working with such a competent doctor. She is East Indian as is Dr. Serry. Only 37, 1 and 4 yr old, only here 6 months, hating living in Palm Springs, love it here. She is a Family doctor, not internist but very sharp and aggressive. Her husband also works at same clinic I think.</p><p>I can't see my new cardiologist till May 23 when it will be 3 yrs since Dr. Grey, I am hoping to have no more to do with him or Stinnis, we will see!!!</p><p>Because of all the changes to my eating and etc for many different reasons I am no dairy, no gluten, drink almond milk and use coconut yogurt and ice creams, etc. Ckd changed some eating, no chewing teeth changed some. The lisinopril has blood pressure under control and rosuvastatin doing it's job. </p><p>I need to work on my specific exercise and walking but I am very active and energetic doing things inside!!! Last night I was even dancing, hope that will be a part of my life again. My weight stays under 130-135. </p><p>I take care of all monetary, etc and health care issues and appointments etc, Linda drives me to Dr Appts and see I have shopping needs, etc. So much I can order from Amazon, I try to be quite self- sufficient.</p><p>Dr. Nathwani is going to be a great doctor to work with, so happy I was inspired to call and change Scripps offices.

I told Gary I could rock the baby and so I settled in the chair and he brought him to me. I was showing him musical reels and he soon fell asleep. My arm is too weak or he is too heavy for me to hold him well so I snug him against my body and hold him that way. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I love these rocking pictures with Ro. That is how we got acquainted in November is I got the new recliner, glider, rocker and Kelly would bring him in to learn to rock with me and I would sing and rock and show him books and he loved the rocking. So fun for me.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Before he left this time I went over to give him a hug and I not only got the hug but a slobbery lick on the nose, too, which is pretty near an expression of love, I choose to think.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">...............................</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Linda got some good pictures of Coco and Roro learning to play together. She also got a video of them taking a wooden toy away from each other and just keeping their eyes on each other while they took it and then lost it to the other, waiting to see what reaction they would get. Neither cried or got upset but you could definitely see a little older boy glee in Coco's eyes when he was the victor and got to keep the toy and Roro just looked a little bewildered as to what had happened. You can see in the picture below the wooden toy Coco ended being the victor of taking away from Roro, who is only 8 months old.</div><br /> <br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjIPoYy6W0tzQgpqWdjQkvx9DG7T8Q4bwXulrSxTUTP1e6irqerD1QjUfTPUasxkof6OUCeBS5Q77DUAo8SYMrMy_wR_YXC6iDpDQbuyXsOsoKMPuZSIk5dWQMMKk_UBZEA5dLY8cXRZBZ3VmYsMr44yuZHGAsT94rPr4L-yYGcFPWdSmDH8w/s320/IMG_3276.jpeg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="320" data-original-width="240" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjIPoYy6W0tzQgpqWdjQkvx9DG7T8Q4bwXulrSxTUTP1e6irqerD1QjUfTPUasxkof6OUCeBS5Q77DUAo8SYMrMy_wR_YXC6iDpDQbuyXsOsoKMPuZSIk5dWQMMKk_UBZEA5dLY8cXRZBZ3VmYsMr44yuZHGAsT94rPr4L-yYGcFPWdSmDH8w/w480-h640/IMG_3276.jpeg" width="480" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjJ4m2PlesSCFnYFKaFLmNq-X9KIqUtl9DfN-Px1-s2WP267x38qclhhz9YDS7cFpNal1qsRZGr_dwWUD3RNKYIV_bADdzeOjEVNAntCQXGll13LNwhDhFbDG7oHDpY720hDg2T_Porvzoe8T9mhJOgh16CzuxKwAI5NCm0YalkXjuc6Yv8Eg/s320/IMG_0153.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="240" data-original-width="320" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjJ4m2PlesSCFnYFKaFLmNq-X9KIqUtl9DfN-Px1-s2WP267x38qclhhz9YDS7cFpNal1qsRZGr_dwWUD3RNKYIV_bADdzeOjEVNAntCQXGll13LNwhDhFbDG7oHDpY720hDg2T_Porvzoe8T9mhJOgh16CzuxKwAI5NCm0YalkXjuc6Yv8Eg/w640-h480/IMG_0153.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Another funny thing that happened with Coco is that after the Torsak's had left and Tanner and Marissa also left for an errand and Gary was busy Coco ended up being in the kitchen area with just Linda and I.

At age five, his family moved to Whitefish, Montana, where he spent most of his childhood hunting with his favorite uncles, teaching tricks to his horse, and joking and playing tricks on his younger sister, Henrietta.</p><p class="MuiTypography-root MuiTypography-body1 css-1yzfdrp css-9l3uo3" style="background-color: white; box-sizing: inherit; color: #303030; font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 18px; font-variant-ligatures: normal; letter-spacing: 0.00938em; line-height: 1.5; margin: 0px 0px 16px; orphans: 2; text-decoration-thickness: initial; widows: 2;">At 14, Harry worked for his Uncle Roman for two summers as the youngest member of his combining crew harvesting crops from North Dakota to New Mexico. This crew was a 500-person team the US government chose to serve as the Harvest Brigade to provide food for the Allied troops and civilians during WWII. Harry finished his last two years of high school in Glendive, MT, where he found life-long friends. He excelled at playing basketball, track, baseball, and football, and helped Dawson High School win back-to-back state titles in football. He continued playing football at North Dakota State College of Science. In 1991, Harry was inducted into NDSCS's Hall of Fame for his outstanding athletic abilities and achievements during his time playing football for them.</p><p class="MuiTypography-root MuiTypography-body1 css-1yzfdrp css-9l3uo3" style="background-color: white; box-sizing: inherit; color: #303030; font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 18px; font-variant-ligatures: normal; letter-spacing: 0.00938em; line-height: 1.5; margin: 0px 0px 16px; orphans: 2; text-decoration-thickness: initial; widows: 2;">Harry received his associate degree from NDSCS and promptly got a job working for Shell back in his hometown of Glendive. Due to his strong will, perseverance, and the disciplined principle of working hard, Harry quickly rose through the ranks at Shell. In 1962, Harry was reassigned to take over one of the offshore oil rigs off the coast of Santa Barbara, CA, making him the youngest offshore drilling foreman at the time. Harry helped to develop/employ underwater diving and drilling techniques/devices. In 1974 Harry was transferred to Gaylord to supervise Shell’s operations in the growing Niagaran trend. He retired from Shell in 1987, then promptly went to work with Ward Lake Energy to develop the shallow Antrim formation. He has been honored for lifetime achievements in oil and gas through the American Petroleum Institute and the Michigan Desk & Derrick Club.</p><p class="MuiTypography-root MuiTypography-body1 css-1yzfdrp css-9l3uo3" style="background-color: white; box-sizing: inherit; color: #303030; font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 18px; font-variant-ligatures: normal; letter-spacing: 0.00938em; line-height: 1.5; margin: 0px 0px 16px; orphans: 2; text-decoration-thickness: initial; widows: 2;">In 1958, Harry fell in love and married Shirley Jean LaPage, and they have shared the following 64 years together.

Last month, she turned 90 & she wears it well!</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><div style="color: #656565; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: georgia, times, "times new roman", serif; font-size: 16px;"> </span></div><span style="font-family: georgia, times, times new roman, serif;"><div style="color: #656565; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: 16px;">Janet was born in Ogden Utah, during the depression. When she was just a year old, her family moved to a small town in Montana, where they were the only LDS family. She graduated from high school, attended BYU, & graduated with a degree in elementary education. She then taught school for a year in Billings, Montana. When school let out, she & a girlfriend took a road trip down the West Coast through Oregon, & down through California. They stopped in San Diego, when they saw how beautiful it was. They were smitten. They found the office of education, interested to inquire about teaching positions. Although the hiring director was on vacation, when the office found out that they were BYU graduates, they guaranteed them a teaching position on the spot. After going back to Montana to pack up her things, in 1956, Janet made San Diego her home.</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="caret-color: rgb(101, 101, 101); color: #656565;"><br /></span></div><span style="color: #656565; font-family: Helvetica;"><div style="text-align: center;">A few years later, she met her husband, Richard. Six weeks later they married & went on to have 4 children, 2 boys & 2 girls. After having children, Janet quit teaching and pursued a real estate license. She served in many callings in the church. </div></span></span><span><div style="color: #656565; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: 16px;">In 1996, her husband passed away. Janet sold their home & went to live with her children. After several years, she bought a home in Lake Almanor, California, located in northeast California, situated where Yosemite meets the Cascades. She lived there for 22 years. It was a wonderful place to live. She attended & served in various callings in the branch there. Her children & grandchildren loved to visit her there.</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="caret-color: rgb(101, 101, 101); color: #656565; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;"><br /></span></div><div style="color: #656565; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 16px; text-align: center;">Having experience with loan processing, Janet went to work for the SBA ( Small Business Administration) providing disaster relief. She would travel for months at a time & process low interest loans for homes that were destroyed by flooding or other natural disasters. She worked for many years, until at age 79, she finally retired. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="caret-color: rgb(101, 101, 101); color: #656565; font-family: Helvetica;"><br /></span></div><span style="color: #656565; font-family: Helvetica;"><div style="text-align: center;">Janet enjoys time with her family. Linda Pulsipher is the 2nd of her 4 children & James Hardy, also in our ward, is her youngest. Janet has 15 grand kids & 13 great grand kids. She has so many great and inspiring stories to tell, so get to know her. We're so glad she's here!</div></span></span></div></td></tr></tbody></table></td></tr></tbody></table><table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="mcnDividerBlock" style="background-color: #fafafa; border-collapse: collapse; color: black; min-width: 100%; table-layout: fixed !important; width: 100%px;"><tbody class="mcnDividerBlockOuter"><tr><td class="mcnDividerBlockInner" style="min-width: 100%; padding: 18px;"><table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="mcnDividerContent" style="border-collapse: collapse; border-top-color: rgb(234, 234, 234); border-top-style: outset; border-top-width: 2px; min-width: 100%; width: 100%px;"><tbody><tr><td></td></tr></tbody></table></td></tr></tbody></table>Janet http://www.blogger.com/profile/00958600686323778939noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17966449.post-83932033170500621202023-02-06T04:56:00.002-08:002023-02-06T04:56:38.204-08:00Margaret Sent Pix of Lake Almanor!<p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">So beautiful, I miss it and she does, too.
