 Annette and i bought a replacement vehicle, oddly, she picked it out, without looking at anyother vehicles.  Chevy AVEO 2004, yeppers what a car, first time in it, headed to KMart, she said don't break anything, and dog gone it, the window handle broke in my hand like a twig, hehe, gonna be a wonder to see how this thing will payoff itself. Intend to keep the repairs and breakdowns twittered and posted as much as possible. Odd news is Chevy says i can get replcements for 10.00, a pop. Went to a distant junkyard and purchesed 3 cranks for the thing, working much easier now! (seems to be a popular part to look for) Older ones, they didn't rotate when trying to use, they just kinda give one the idea this isn't a normal vehicle of choice. But she's happy ! Too bad, wonder if any tax rebates will imply within next years tax dues,. 

4/13/11 Well aside from Japan's aweful mishaps with the nuclear plants and the catestrofic events leading to them, Annette is playing hookie from dialysis to day, seems her foot is swollen and she didnt get much rest again, seems everytime i think things start looking up, another event of something takes place with her ailments. Still working on the plates for the new vehicle so be going out here in a few while she rests. See you's nexttime hoping to share her recent venture to Va. beach area when she left dialysis a couple fridays ago for the weekend, it was a somewhat unexpected trip, seeing how she didn't feel up to going home so soon on a wonderful day as she called it. Still have some saltwater taffy so wasn't a bad trip at all.

    Annette spent few more days in RMH this past week, nothing too serious, so she might say, doc didnt have much good to say of her ongoing conditions. Be a wonder to say the least if all works in her favor. Havent a clue on what to say. The doc's words were direct and to the point. Bad enough to let it stay with that. Thanks all for the prayer(s) and good thoughts sent her way on this behalf at Facebook. She needed it and sent her to a quicker discharge date, or so am gonna say. She spent weekend so far much with her sister. they did the grocery shopping and got themselves a few clothes for the upcoming season (winter) dread is here and creeping ominously closer. I say we gonna get it. Somethings left better unsaid. So have a good NFL and NHL season, an try to use this site for any if all your travel needs, we (she) can use the support. 

From Oct.3 10, Annette asked to go to hospital. She usually waited til last minute for this type of request, this was no different from any angle. She'd been seen by triage and sat awaiting them to take her back for further exam. As she waited she became fidgety and complained she couldn't find a comfortable position to sit in. I'd given her, her dialysis pillow when the attendents took her from the car and brought her to triage area. As she lay her head on the pillow and squirmed into childlike discomforts i'd tried to calmly ask her what was wrong, she uttered she didn't know in childlike amnner and laid her head back again into the pillow, looking around in the waiting area to see who'd been noticing her behavior. She looked up towards me an said she loved me, thanked me for all i did and rested again, saying she loved the family and was tired, very tired, as she squinted raising her head slightly from the pillow, trying to focus, she uttered she couldn't see, all was dark, then the triage nurse, came and said they were ready for her with a room. I let go of the chair with certain unease and felt she'd finally been able to tell them what was wrong. I'd done this so oft i guess it was relief to see her going back with her, not contemplating the next 30 minutes which would occur beyond the norms of her usual triage visits. I believ i went to the car and took the next exit from the hospital and gotten a cup of coffee and a couple of her favorite KFC pies. Figuring she'd be asking for food once they checked her out to see what the matter was this time. As i returned and went thru the door to the E.R. the attendant was walking towards me, not thinking any different i tried to avoid contact thru eyes and went to walk into another direction, thinking he'd been on his way to another E.R. departmental duty. He kept walking towards me, hmm , odd is he following me or what might of come to mind, he rushed a silent yet stealth walk to me as non chalant as can be, the doctors want to see you in back her, file out a paper so they can examine her further, ok was my thought usually done from time to time on visits, but not quite in this fashion, he led me thru the double doors, as they swung open, he jestured and said doctor will be right here, he darted off farther down the hall, as i went to enter the room, the female doctor, asked a question, which seemed odd, DNR  do you have power of attorney, hmmm, mind was wondering abit, as i said, what, guess rather outloud aswell, she asked again, i said yes i believe so, she pointed towards the E.R. rooms and stated Annette's seemed to of slipped unconscious, after they took her from my hands she'd apparently, had heart failure, they went to check her pulse on normal procedure, and said she'd slipped away. They'd been trying to resusitae in Resus3. She pointed the way and i followed as she said i could watch, the room was array with staff trying different positions and procedures to regain pulse, i'd reached into my pocket and immediately called her sister who'd been at work, i told her what was going on, the tears and the wails started over the phone. I hung up with her and returned back to the Resus room, she'd still been unresponsive. I flipped my phone and this time called her brother to inform him, as i expected him, her stepdad answered the phone. I reported much the same as i paced the hallway from Resus to the small room, they'd origanally took me to. The team had now gained a pulse, as i recall just shortly to this point, a darkened aura over her limp and lifeless body, telling myself almost assuredly, she'd finally ended the several years of pains, medical wonders and dialysis, she'd been going thru, she'd oft state that her mind and body was tired of the run around, it wasn't helping with her conditions as far as the treatments went. I almost smiled i went blank from that point in a way wanting to smile on her behalf, yet in another sullen of who little, it seemed i could actually seem to do for her. She an her ma aswell other family members always gave me thanks and praise, i always seemed befuttled on thier encouraging remarks on how lucky she was , and thank GOD i'd stayed to help her thru all this over the years. As i returned yet agin, getting that twilight zone feeling of going back n forth between phone calls and checking in on them, they'd had stuck a monitor and some wires to her chest, she'd regained a pulse, i looked in disbelief of sorts, the aura was staggering to say the least, then the tubes came to stick into her for her breathing, they'd gotten her back. Since i'd been quite subdued, less seems to matter in some instance while some gets stuck in reserve as to not wanting to open up to it, she'd spent 7 days in CCU following the prodecures done at that time, on 4th or 5th day doctor was saying perhaps a 63% chance she'd even make it back, let alone figure how she might be had she even regained a conciousness. Guess i was bewildered, i'd sat in a room setvaside, for doctor conferncing when i'd come across a folder with the words What Comes Next written on it. As i glanced at it i said no way, then said well guess i'll have to look at the big picture, towards putting her to rest. Moments past into minutes as i tried to talk myself into another possible way she might not make it, or that she might be won't bve able to function at all on her on behalf. I opened the folder i had chest pains and shortness of breath, the tightness was over powering as i fought the pains on me an looked somewhat towards, her motionless body in the other hallway, behind the automatic double doors.

Lot has happened over the past year Annette's still being asked to take the T.B. meds although the doctors in UVA said perhaps she didnt need the stay that took 6 months in Winchester medical. We found a vehicle beibg sold along the road and been paying as we can, although they are saying transmission maybe going, or just a need for a cylanoid, Annette been having to take oxygen lately toward the end of her treatments at dialysis, being kind of spookie going in there to bring her home and she's laying flat hooked up to all the tubes and such, then stressing herself more by having to take them TB horse sized pills. Would like to find a lawyer and a good TB specialist to see just what is going on. Unfortuently they wont part-take in her case. (lawyers) without being 100% sure its not her fault, whatever thats supposed to mean, they emphasized that when her double kidney failure evolved some 6 days after taking her into her primary doctors office whom wasnt there so she'd been seen as a late walk-in and given medication for urinary tract infection and thrust mouth, five days later in a comatosed state calling 911 and saying people and children walking thru walls taking her possessions and medications. That was an experience trying to explain to the 911 operator it wasn't a domestic going on. Thats about the time she spent 6 months in hospital and having her hips deteriate, due no exercise while she laid up with a possible TB case the next hospital states she might not of needed to go thru. Whats next i don't know but fleeing this worlds gifts are about my next option, can't live with it might try without. Thank you for your concerns, i guess i can add. Her story within these and http://www.citytraveler.mysite.com/ and other sites i forgot where they are, tho none seem to aide or benefit either of our concerns needs or wants to apply towards her or our well-being. As when i started these pages, we end up in one run around after another, just a slightly different version, sorry to say i don't have a prayer, and thank you for your's , was checking a memo left by one teenager to the efforts made on Annette's behalf the ignorance to watch her type seems like a scam to me, filtered the worlds welfare pretty well. Thanks for schooling and world efforts to promote the bs tought in these era's and political run-downs. What a joke like thier religious beliefs, due to serve what they just want you to dream for,,, Well  havent a prayer or dream left, if she wasn't so ill and noone to help would be outta here by now. Thanks for the help Dr, Phil and others whom couldnt get her to appear and boost your show's ratings on how helpfull you can get others to help thru your mediocure show's.

 Annette questioned dialysis or hospital this past week friday, opting for dialysis as she'd want to be home for her son's baby to come for visit sat. or sunday. She felt sore anf uneased for some reason relaying oft how her breathing and or body ached with her breaths, i'd asked her if she wanted her oxygen on as i drove her to treatment. She'd grown weakened as some strange presence was drawing her Karma as she stated several times in the past. RMH was out of the question this time, she'd felt like the whole world collapsed around her from her Sept.2010 stay where the doctor had given her to the xmas season to be amongst us. After several meds changes and home oxygen and ambuterol treatments perscribed i thought all would work itself out. This sunday Oct.3,2010 all changed in the world for me, Annette awoke and asked to go to the hospital, she'd decided that Win Med Ctr would be better for her, some awkward notion pointed her away from returning this time to R.M.H. in Harrisonburg. As i drove Annette to the ER i stopped and gotten her a McD's sweet tea, and farther up the road, a coffee for me at Starbucks. As we continued i'd noticed Annette's body slumping and doubleing over as to find a comfortable way to sleep or rest. I slowly along the road pulled over and grabbed apillow from her dialysis appointments in the back of the truck to make it easier on her. Her hand found her sweet tea during the next few minutes as we drove along, she raised her head on several occasion reflecting her Love for me and her Family members, she seemed sullen and quite reserved, as she seemed to state on other trips to dialysis or other doctor, or road excursions we'd take to ease her frame of mind. The 3rd time Annette didnt reach for her sweet tea, as she leaned over body across pillow and reached for the tea to sip, in the awkward possition, i chuckled thinking she must be relaxed so much from the ride to the ER, I took the 522 scenic rte of sorts as 81 would no doubt be a bit shaky and fast for her present condition, she always seemed to wait til her mind and body wanted help, being all the past times she'd found herself in a wandered state. This was no exception, as i took her to the ER the nurse or aide took her from the truck via wheelchair, leaving her by triage as i went to park the truck in the parking garage, for some reason i veered past the garage and found myself driving to the next exit past the hospital and rabbing a smoke while she waited inside, turning around at the exit and making parking spot in garage. I found Annette signed in and awaiting triage as she slumped in the wheelchair, her name was called and i wheeled her to the nursing station for questions of why she was there. Yes, she'd made her friday dialysis appt, she felt weakened, super tired, hairloss, chestpains and ongoing reasons to be there.As they finished and directed me to take her around the corner and await a nurse coming to allow us into the other double doored section, Annette's aburt and uncontoled behavor changed, she sprawled somewhat in the chair like a child, tired, scared perhaps and cranky, staing she was too tired and want sleep, i looked around as if a child was acting up infront of me and asked her if she knew where she was and why the outburst, she stated i don't know and slumped back into a somewhat folded position on the chair. She raised her head as if nothing happened said Mark i Love you, you know that, i love my family too, as the triage nurse looked at me from the door, several feet away, Annette stated rather audibly that she was tired and needed sleep, trying to raise her head from the lurched over position she now sat in the wheelchair, trying to hug the pillow on her lap, snuggling into it, she then trying to squint her eyes,  stated i cant see, about the same time the triage nurse came and said it'll be about 15 minutes til we call you, from her exam, they rolled her to the double door. I turned and walked to the parking garage as she whisked Annette off, when i returned thru the door after a short walk outside the aide with a rather professional look in his eye said they'd like to see you in a room back her for some questions. I followed thru the double door and to a small waiting area i went, as i looked strangely around the five seat area, a nurse approached and asked a question, i felt took or somewhat blank of expression as she asked again, she asked about resusitation, no time to think i stated yes, she said follow me, i looked thru the room sliding door as all that just happened raced thru my bewildered mind. On the table infront of me several aides nurses and doctors spead acroos the bedside as they tried in vein to resusitate Annette. The aura was mindboggleing as i tried to focus like was watching a bad or sci-fi movie. I couldnt grasp yet tried to identify who or what was happening, Annettes limp body lay motionless, 'cept fot the crews quick and thrustfull attempts at reviving her, i walked back to the small room out of awe and phoned her sister to tell her what was happening, she started to weep, wail, and cry on the phone, i hung up on her as her brother about the same time called my cell and i informed him aswell, or so i think to recall, calling her stepdad, aswell, i went back to the room they worked so dilegently in as they now tried to stuck tubes and monitors about her. I noticed a few steps i took inbetween as the bizzare yet happenstance danced in my head, she was going to leave me i thought . Her aura seemed so dark about her i couldnt help but state it seemed like a bad dream or sci-fi movie i was in. I went back to the small room and try call her sister again, she wailed so i couldnt talk to her, they revived her it seems their sticking tubes into her. She wailed i hung up the phone and all til her Critical Care Unit room i have no recollection. I've been sullen, awed,numbed,burdened, and yet not too suprised at the events. Annettes one of the strongest,most caring,wise and learned people i'dever met, after 7 to 8 years of ailments, TB scare, hip replacement(s), half lung removed, dialysis 3x's a week and several other theropy and doctor exams tests, medication(s), somewhat at times experimental, resp. failure, cardiac arrest and amputeeism, college courses online (Kaplan), family matters and just plain stresses, her pleasentries, seemed so far and apart, i find it hard to say i helped all i could. If by chance she passes along this time, i'd like someone to know this Girl, mother, woman, friend,pal,grandma, was about one of the sweetest, caring, loving, passionate, and bewildered  person i'd ever like to know and Love, tho i never told her much as harder sentiments fell on my shoulders, more ways then one, i did seem to fall short of the support, she'd needed and yearned for aswell. Am awestruck to say i feel inadequate as a provider, a caregiver, a lover, a friend, in some decisions we'd found ourselves into. I'd been praised by her family, her friends, her unanswered LOVE and can only say she's so much deserved a special place in the sky or where folks go that leave the world, i only hope to find the affections,the care, the insight this woman possessed in 20 people as her wide array of knowledge and wisdom, was only dampered by the silent agonizing pains she endured thru the whole affair. I am speechless to say i cared, i loved, i adored her. Words couldnt seem to reflect her Special mind sets, her caring ways often dampened by some procedure, event or .......... I'll miss you as if i never knew LOVE, and it suffered as it was given just to be disected, and emptied upon the Wondered World. Vasculitus,Double Kidney Failure,Hip Replacements,TB scare with 19 mnths of medicinal agony,Countless Pneumonia bouts, UTI's, and other infections seemed to take a Beautiful person and turn her into a Missed, LOVED, and Admired lady. I hope to never know someone like her again, as when she goes, all i could of loved admired and hoped for, will be nothing but an unaswered dream, Rest your wery eyes baby, sleep amongst the stars, dream a lil dream for you, for i'll have a special smile just of you. Your childlike states, your laughs, your dreams, thank you for the times, the pains, the unanswered dreams, for missing what you been, is far more then what life seemed. I could never tell you what you meant, you changed unknowingly like the winds.I'm awed as to what you showed, felt,and sometimes dreamed, only to show life isnt all it seems.  You were more then i deserved, i didnt hold close enough so it seems. As you pass thru the skies, i'd like to smile thru the sighs.You were more then i could Love, Return now to the Lord above.

i'll be sullen, i'll be grey, i'll curse and laugh along the way, i'll never have or ever be The Greatest Person Who Cared  for  me thank you for your love and dreams, i guess its not all as it seems, your the greatest i could of had.

Annette's doing somewhat better on 2nd floor WMC, her condition now is low red blood count, they also treating here for diabetic symtoms, tho not diabetic, they say happens when you go thru her type ordeal. Anyway they gave her blood yesterday 10/19 to help, tho took hours to find she still needs stress test done on heart, they say cath put in leg to check flow to heart, She's bit nerveous but as we can say, she wants out of the hospital, now.
