First I want to thank each and every one of you for your extremely kind and caring words, sympathies and gestures...you Truly are the Greatest and Most loving this dragon has ever had, I Truly wish I could Hug each and every one of you in person! ❤️

My wife has had her procedure's and has recovered nicely.
Sadly the remaining situation hasn't changed any but life moves on.

And this is where the plot changes.
As some of you know I suffer from a Simi rare blood disease known as HHC or Hereditary Hemochromatosis. It's a genetic disorder that causes the body to retain iron, undiagnosed it can be quiet lethal and if diagnosed too late one can suffer the same fate.
I was diagnosed in a "midway" state I suppose. This has left me with a host of issues ranging from pure exhaustion for no physical reason, to sheer joint pains and random headache like symptoms.
As a result of the latter diagnosis, I have sclerosis of the liver (scaring) and a dead place about the size of a quarter. I've been recently diagnosed with stage 2 chronic kidney disease that has been upgraded not five months later to Stage 3 Chronic kidney disease. Funny thing is I don't have high blood pressure nor am I diabetic so this diagnoses is a bit of a mystery to my kidney doctor and new test are abound.
In addition to all of this, on the 12th of this month I had a bad attack, I mean a Really Bad attack. I was at work tarping a load (Flatbed) of lumber when my heart suddenly began racing out of control and I began struggling to breath. This lasted nearly two hour's as I fought off feeling of passing out. I literally felt like I was having a heart attack and suspect my heart had somehow slipped into AFib.
This is not the first time this has happened and those of you who have known me for a very long time may remember many year's ago before I was diagnosed that I had a similar attack, however This one was the Mother of them all!
As a result I'm going to see a cardiologist tomorrow (Wednesday) to see what they can find. Again back before I was diagnosed I was seeing a cardiologist who did a series of stress tests to no avail. However after my diagnosis he said there was a special series of tests he would have to perform to see what sort of damage and to what extent the same was to my heart as a result of the HHC diagnoses as this blood disease adversely affects the Heart, Liver and Pancreas. However at the time That particular doctor did not take my insurance and I would have to pay $6000 out of pocket. Draggy is rather poor and that much money was Way out of the question!
I saw my GP a couple of weeks ago and asked if he could find someone to perform these test who does take my insurance, he did and here we are.
So now it would seem my heart is the issue....life just really sucks sometimes.
I've filled for disability and am hoping it will go through without a hitch but it is the government were talking about so I'm certain that will be a long and difficult fight.

I've not mentioned this before because I'm not looking for sympathy or pity. I know we all go and I know one day it will be my turn perhaps much sooner than later. But the last thing I want is for anyone to think I'm looking for attention as I'm not. I just want you, my Dearest Friends and Family members to know what is going on and that I Truly do love every last one of you!
I am Back and keeping up appearances so I apologize for having been so spotty in the past, I'm sure you understand by now the stress I was under, but I am here now. I promise I will keep everyone informed via journals of new developments as they happen provided anyone is interested.
