    My blood pressure goes thru the roof at medical appointments too😟. Dang scary because they might suggest or push surgery or dangerous new medicines they want to test etc🥹. Time and not overusing your muscles is best. Very wise to say no to surgeries . ☮️💟🖖CC

  2. big hugs, stay good to yourself and quick healings, that tree was issue can be scary , at old house i had a titanic dinosaur willow tree cant remember the variety of willow, but it was huge, one of the largest , including trunk, willow i have ever seen in my life, right outside the kitchen, branches would break for no reason from way up high, very dangerous, us kids were never allowed to play under it, but it was magnificent and beautiful , how i miss that tree, even tho it could have tooken out half the home, called it a widower also, or widow maker .
