Taking a Short Break

Posted on May 3, 2015 by Norm 3.0

In the past week I’ve had a bit of of health setback. It seems that pneumonia is not a good thing to catch when you’re in heart failure. For now it’s not too serious but it has the potential to become very serious if I don’t take proper care of it.

I need to rest and concentrate on letting my meds do their job while my body recovers and rebuilds it’s strength, therefore I’ll be stepping away for at least a week or two.

For all those participating in our Thursday Doors series, I have posts scheduled for the next two weeks, so please feel free to drop by and keep contributing. Last week we had our most participants to date so let’s keep that momentum going!

Back soon 🙂

    Oh no! I’ve only just logged on myself after many weeks to see this. I hope you get plenty of well deserved rest and recover well. I better go and find some doors and contribute! I don’t know how many I’ve missed so far!
    Take care 🙂

    Norm, I am the worst person on the planet to tell you to slow down and let your body heal (Ms. flying out on a business trip 6 days post-op…), but I’ll say it anyway. Take good care of yourself. Your heart is nothing to mess with. Be well.

    Take good care of yourself! Pneumonia is never a good thing. I’ve had it twice and both times it’s taken more than a month to really get over.
