    In the last few months I whole heartedly believe things happen for a reason and you are correct-you may not know clearly why at first- but as you look back you may start to understand or you may never understand why you were put on the path that we were sent down. Know that there is a reason for that path!

    Hey buddy,

    I'm really sorry I've been missing throughout your whole process. It's tough to get here while....out here...LOL

    But I think of you a lot and in fact, I'm sitting at the truck stop we met at. (I have a parking space this time though)...:biggrin_2559:

    Best wishes for you and your new journey with Swift my friend. I'll try to keep in touch more.
     
    Wedge Thanks this.

    Thanks for the info. My CPAP does have a card. I called the company I got the CPAP from, and they said that if the machine is recording correctly, the card holds the last year's worth of data. To be on the safe side, I'm going to take the machine in and have them read the card and make sure it's recording correctly, and while I'm there have them make sure the machine is still calibrated correctly. Thanks again for the heads-up.

    That's pretty deep, Sammycat. You seem to know how my head is screwed on.

    When we are thrown into adversity, and our confidence is shaken, our faith is being tested. Through friendship, we find comfort and the strength to move forward until the battle is won.

    Thanks for being here Sammycat. :biggrin_25514:

    Not a problem, buddy.

    You always seem to find the time to drop a post to say howdy.

    If I knew you where local, I would've stopped in, bought you that coffee, and we could've sat back and told some story.

    I'm running into some delays with Swift (temporarily deferred). I have to tie up some medical loose ends before I can move forward. That's a tall order two weeks before Christmas.

    I've been following your thread even though I don't post. I try to keep tabs on you.

    If you get local again soon, give me a call. We can do that coffee. :biggrin_25519:

    Get it Done. :biggrin_25511:

    Hello everyone.

    Just a quick update for all of you.

    Doctor appointments have been scheduled, however, because of the hoidays, I can't get all done by Swift's next scheduled orientation date which is set for Jan 4 (I knew I should have gone to medical school :biggrin_2556:).

    I'm working on trying to move one of the appointment dates up (by switching doctors) but so far I'm SOL.

    I'll keep you all posted. :biggrin_25525:

    Thanks for reading.

    -Wedge

    Thanks AT. :biggrin_25514:

    Yeah it's a pain, but I have to admit that some of it could have been avoided. Poor planning on my part.

    I'll get it fixed ASAP.:biggrin_255:
