 She came for a short visit the other day and I have not seen her since.  She honestly seemed as excited to see me as I was to see her.

I had to call an ambulance for Roger yesterday morn...I could not get him to get up.  He would say what, when I was trying to get him to get up to take his meds.  And say okay...but would just go back to sleep.

You cannot imagine how stupid I feel...in my own defense, I will say I am ever looking for something that points to another stroke.  But he is diabetic.  Can you guess where I am going?  Yes, his blood sugar was extremely, extremely low.  I am amazed he was not in a coma.  The EMT gave him an IV that brought his sugar back up and had him eat a peanut butter sandwich before they would leave.  

And my biopsy was more basal cell....right now another MOHs surgery is scheduled for Aug 12.  The other option is radiation.  25 treatments.  Every day.    They both scare me since it is about an inch below my eye and close to my nose.

  1. Good thing you called for an ambulance for Roger. You probably saved his life! As for your biopsy results I think it's a hard decision for you whether to go for radiation or the MOH surgery. Hopefully your surgeon can give you advice on how to proceed.

  2. Oh Rose, sometimes life can seem to be too much. Diabetic lows are so dangerous so you did the right thing calling the ambulance, and I am praying your surgery will go well. Sending hugz to you both, Mxx

  4. Oh my, that must have been scary. I probably would have called an ambulance as well. Glad to hear he's ok now though.

  6. Tough decision of treatment options. You’ll do what’s best!

    I can understand you calling 911 for Roger. I probably would have too. Now you will know something to check for if you are in a smiler situation again.

    Take care, you two!

  7. I can only imagine how scared you were with Roger. Glad he is OK. I hate that you have to go through surgery or something again. You sure have had a lot of problems with all that. So sorry. Prayers.

  8. Sorry you have to wait so long for the MOHS. the waiting makes me crazy. the shorter time I have to free is always best for me. your little one is so precious, I love her toes and nails and claws and her WHISKERS.
    i know low sugar is scary but I am happy that it was that and he did not have to be transported and it could be brought up so quickly.

  9. Oh my, you have your hands full!! Hang in there, and good luck. I've had a number of basal cell removals, but not MOHs.

  13. Wow, you've had more than enough scares with your diagnosis and Rogers BS. Glad you called the EMT's and they got him stabilized. Think positive about your basal cell. Medical science has come a long way. ((HUGS))

  15. You did the right thing calling an ambulance for Roger. It is hard to know what to do since you are not a doctor. We (I am talking about me now), just don't know how to diagnose what is wrong. It is better to err on the safe side but it is a hard decision to make. You may have saved Roger's life.
