Journal entry by Lisa Loomis Follmer

Some days just suck...
Today was one of those days. Tom had an appointment today to meet his new cardiologist. Things weren't as positive as we'd like to hear. There's a fine line we walk on this page, between patient privacy and keeping friends and family informed. Without going into too much detail, I'll just say that today's appointment left is both frustrated and feeling defeated. There are several concerns that the doctor has about Tom's current health. He added about 5 different upcoming appointments to our already full schedule, with a barrage of different doctors. It made Tom angry (for lack of better word), and made me feel like I may have found my new permanent position as full time care giver. 

I'm hoping we can chalk today up as just one bad day, and have brighter ones ahead. Your continued support and prayers are very much appreciated. I will update with hopefully more detail, when we have definite answers to today's questions. 🤞🙏🏼
