Out of Town for Medical Reasons!

We are off to see the Wizard of Albany Med. tomorrow. We must be there at 8:30 in the morning as that is the only time Dr. Beegle can see me. Up early and on the road we go.

I talked with Pittsburgh and they want me there on Monday to see the transplant doctor, do PFT's and a 6 minute walk. So, we will be leaving on Sunday and returning on Tuesday, if all goes well.

I called to see if we could take the plane, no oxygen tanks allowed, a concentrator is allowed, but it won't give me 5 liters of oxygen, so we are driving. We will be using the Tom Tom to help us along the way.

They are going to check me out thoroughly and see what is up. We will see. Well, I am off to inhale the wonders of Ventavis and mentally plan for tomorrow.

After the many phone calls this morning to the doctors and their hospitals, we had a fantastic lunch with our friend, Judi C. and her husband, Chuck. They just received a camper that they are doing over and it will be stunning once they finish it. Judi can sew like nobody's business and Chuck is a Jack of all Trades. What a complimentary couple. Can't wait to see the finished camper that will be parked near their new pond. Picnics and barbecues will abound as well as their kids being able to sleep out in the camper, where the bears won't, hopefully, visit them.

Be well while I am out and about trying to figure out what is next on our agenda in getting me well.

May you do the 6 minute walk in no time flat and may the bears leave you in peace.

All at once I feel such grief, so selfishly, no more emails from Mlle Mott? Yet, I simultaneously feel overjoyed that this beautiful woman was a part of my life for 14 years.

Marge was an inspiration and her spirit will live on in her students... she was a positive light in our, sometimes, dark world. I will miss her, but will remember her teachings. To the woman who taught me the definition of Zut Alors, she will live on.

As you all can tell, this was Margie's last blog entry before she left us. For all of those of us who had the pleasure of having her touch our life in some small way, her postive energy and love of life will continue to spread. That is a legacy that will continue even without her physical presence. She will be sorely missed by all of us. We love you Marge and are so happy to have been part of your life! May your legacy live on.

Wow, I am so sorry to hear of Marge's passing. I didn't know her well, but we both unfortunately shared living with PH. I'm sad to know she is gone, but may she breathe easier forever. My sincere condolences to her family.

Marge was so excited to get her transplant. She had big plans for when she was feeling good again. I'm so saddened by the news that she passed away too soon and didn't get that opportunity. She was such a sweet and caring person. This just isn't fair.

Rest in Peace, Marge.
