Happy timezones, friends! It’s so good to be here, speaking with you all.

As you may have guessed, Old Stone is not being published today but on February 7th instead. This could not be helped as in recent days, I’ve been having chest pain. Friday, January 23, I was rushed to hospital by ambulance and was admitted.
Luckily, I had posts already scheduled, so nothing at booomcha was interrupted. I was feeling better while in hospital, so was able to answer comments via phone.
The news? I’m unhappy to report that there is another leak in the valve I had replaced. I am happy that It’s not severe, so we are watching it for the moment. I have more appointments this month, and the past few days have been feeling better.
Please don’t worry about me. I am home again. Life is good, and so is God.
Thank you so much for reading, liking, lurking, and commenting! You are important!

Oh no. I’m so sorry to hear that.
So glad you’re home and feeling better. Praying for continued healing and peace as the doctors watch things. Life is good, and God is faithful.
Continued Prayers for you my Dear Friend…

So happy to read that you are home safe and sound! God is good! Praying for your continued health and thankful for good doctors, too!
Thank you, Melissa. Your prayers mean a lot to me. The doctors are wonderful!
take care.
Thank you, Suze. You, too, my friend.
Telling me not to worry. I will send prayers out for you sis. May this pass gently and top shelf health returns soon. Can it repair itself? Keep us updated! Not to worry HA.
Hey there. I don’t know if it can repair itself. I have an appt on Feb 9th where I hope to ask a ton of questions. Hope he’s prepared for me. lol
Thank you for the prayers and I will keep you updated, for sure.
It’s hard because I want to be candid, but I also don’t want to worry anyone. Know what I mean? 🙂
I sure do and you shouldn’t sweat the small stuff, I think being candid is the way to go. Write those questions down and bless ya sis. 🙏💗✌️
You’re right, and I will definitely write them down. That’s a good idea. Bless you, too. 💗🌺
Sorry you are dealing with health issues. Praying 🙏 for you and sending (((hugs))).
Thank you, Kim. I appreciate it. Sending you hugs, too.
Sending you a big hug Kymber. Maggie
Thank you so much, Maggie! 💗🌺 I appreciate it.
Oh, Wow, Kymber. Sounds like you are in “good hands.”
I’m in good hands, Michael. My doctors are amazing. So, no worries there.
I’ll try not to worry about you while I say a few prayers…
Thank you. I appreciate your prayers very much.
Whew, I am sorry to read this, Kymber. I hope you the situation will improve and you don’t need surgery.
Thank you so much, Robbie. I hope so, too. 💗🌺
☺️🥳🤨😚
So glad you’re home again – I’m sure you’re in good hands – healthcare is pretty darn good these days fortunately. I’ve been on medication for YEARS for a mitral valve prolapse which is NOTHING compared to valve replacement. Take care of yourself – rest – behave!! Sending hugs.
Pam (and Teddy too)
Thank you, Pam and Teddy. 💗🌺
I hope your valve prolapse doesn’t bother you. You are right about healthcare being really good nowadays. I really like my cardiologist, too. I’m sure he’ll figure this out.
Telling me to behave is a good call. LOL It’s so hard, though. haha
Hugs xo
Sorry to read you are going through these struggles, Kymber. I admire your strength and peace. I send you best wishes full of love and hope for your complete recovery. Hugs, my dear. We’re with you. ❤️🩹
Thank you, Nancy. Your words help a great deal. I appreciate the well-wishes. Hugs. 💗🌺
