A Ruby-throated Hummingbird
perches to rest and then makes another wing beating trip to one of our sugar
water feeders, as others try to grab his territory.
This is a rough time, as they have these little wars all day long, every day now, until they fly south.
The little Skipper Butterfly was on the last of the Cone Flowers at my next door neighbor's garden, along with a Yellow Tiger Swallowtail. Summer's blooms are just about all spent in the gardens on and surrounding Tingsgrove. I shall miss the activity, and yet await the calm of Autumn's presence.
Many have sent me e-mails and messages asking about my health issues.
What I can tell you is that from the beginning, I did not think that this was about my heart, but the Cardiologist was not so certain.
After 2 and a 1/2 months, I think that she now feels the same way, other than the fact that I have several SVT's back to back every day, which can be either left alone, or I can take Beta Blockers.
In the meantime, my Internist and Cardiologist conversed last Thursday and more testing was ordered up.
This morning, I had gone to the Pharmacy to pick up a new script, when in front of the Pharmacist and 3 employees, I went into an event, and it lasted nearly 2 minutes. It was a good thing because the very kind Pharmacist immediately sat me down, and he checked my blood pressure and pulse every five minutes for 25 minutes. I went really pale and then broke out in a sweat and felt very weak, and nauseated all day. My normally very low and excellent blood pressure had gone up 29 points from normal and the lower number had increased about 15 points higher than normal. My blood pressure and pulse continued to drop to the norm after 25 minutes.
I am feeling better yet still have no peace, for when these events take place, they are most frightening.
We are getting ready to go on much needed journey and shall be away from September 16, thru October 2. I will try my best to post a few images in drafts before we leave as well as while we are away, and also try to keep up with what you post.
I feel so badly, that this year has made it to where it is more difficult for me to do this and I shall continue to try to do my best, for you all bring so much joy my way.
Thank you always so much for your kindness sent my way, each one of you are so very special, and I am grateful for your friendship~
