Tomorrow

Not going home, but having a pleurodesis. It is an invasive procedure where they, in lay terms, get the outer lining of the lung to adhere to the chest wall. Hopefukl, this will stop the pleural effusion, collection of liquid around my lung, and make it easier to breathe, talk, and sit. 

Apparently I'll have a drainage tube for awhile and be in some good amounts of pain. 

Thank you for supporting us continually. I'm not up for visitors, at all. The only people getting past my nurses have shared DNA, or put a ring on me, and there is a no exception rule. 

I am terrified, nervous, and just need to be. Thank you for respecting this need. 

My mom and sister Michelle will be here for a bit, yet not Pam. She is preparing for her 2-scoop celebration on 5/1 when she finally receives her post mastectomy reconstruction! 

Thank you for continually praying for my family.

Your words are impacting people you've never met...like me. I'm Sandy Seibert's cousin. I'm inspired by you and am one of the many praying for you and your family.

I read every post and don't really know what to say. You astound me at every turn. I want to help and have no idea how to do so. I love you from afar, but that isn't much help at all. I am an Bronson Family Fan! You are all so special to me.

Hi,

I work for the company that produces Mutual of Omaha’s aha moment campaign; check out www.mutualofomaha.com/aha to see what an aha moment is and the incredible stories we’ve filmed over the last several years.

For the 5th year, we’re taking our 34-foot Airstream mobile film studio on the road again for the 2014 Aha Moment Tour, visiting 20 cities across America to capture inspirational, life-changing aha moments from folks all over the country. We are headed to Bowling Green, KY on June 30th and July 1st and would love to invite you to share an aha moment, and how your life has changed since. It can be about your work, your family or other life experiences. You would just have to step into the Airstream studio for a few minutes and tell your story on film to our tour producer. Your video will then be posted to www.mutualofomaha.com/aha, where you will be able to share it with your friends and family via email, Facebook and Twitter!

On June 30th and July 1st from 9am to 5pm, we will be parked at the National Corvette Museum, 350 Corvette Drive, Bowling Green, KY 42101. Here is a map link to the location: https://goo.gl/maps/1BBLZ

We’d love to have you. Let me know as soon as possible and I can reserve your time slot.

Many thanks!
