Me too, I'm now down to 5' 1''. I started at 5' 3'' and a half. I'm looking more square these days. Shorter and wider!:arghh::eek::rolleyes:
My grandma was 5'2" and now is barely 4'10". She has scoliosis at the base of her spine, and her lungs are actually collapsing because of it. She now has to do breathing exercises daily to avoid losing lung capacity.

So sorry.:( Did the aneurysm burst before they found it? My dh's mother had an aneurysm bleed when he turned 12 and she became debilitated from it. They never expected her to survive, but she was never the same. Apparently it is genetic so he and his sister got MRI's in the last few years. He didn't have one, but younger SIL did, and it was huge. She was lucky they found it and that she had c-sections when she delivered otherwise the docs said delivery could have killed her. She had surgery to prevent a future bleed. All is well with her thank heavens. The plan is when my kids get older for each of them to have an MRI on their brains to make sure they are ok since it is genetic. They have the ability nowadays to prevent them from bursting. But prayers for your FIL. I hope he will be alright.

My best friend from our second neighborhood in No Cal had a 13 yr. old older sister that passed from an aneurysm. It burst and she passed 3 days later. I remember them traveling back to their home state of Missouri to bury her. I remember telling him how sorry I was after he got back from Missouri and him thanking me, and that was the last we ever talked about it. I never heard if there was a family history. It definitely left a lasting impression on me. Every time I read or hear the word aneurysm, my mind goes directly back to that time.
A few years ago I started having unusual head pain, and eventually an MRI on my head.
They found nothing up there ;), fortunately, and the pains eventually went away and have not come back since. They said it could have just been some sort of virus. :cyclops: No family history that I know of.
With a history in the family, those early scans for y'all's kiddos sound like a good idea, especially to catch something early.
Anyway, prayers that all are clear when y'all get them done, and they have no problems in the future.

I took the kids Tuesday to see it at a theater in MD that is 30 minutes from our house because the tickets were $5 all day Tuesday and $1 popcorn. :)The seats were reserved and they were these awesome leather loungers. A push of the button and you were reclined. The seats were so large that dd6 was able to share a seat with me. Of course I did pay for a seat for her, but since the sets were reserved and they were almost sold out at 10am, I didn't have much choice. One of us would have to sit alone. That was not happening of course. Next time I will have to see how to reserve online I guess.

I really liked Cars 3.:) I did get choked up at points during it. (And darn it! can there be one Disney film that doesn't bring tears to my eyes? :confused:I mean this was Cars!!!! Not as many tears as Toy Story 3 of course, but still a couple.):D


Happy Birthday to your dh!:):)

So many theaters like that around now. Sooo much more comfortable than bein' squished into those old theater seats and havin' to readjust your position every 5 mins. 'cause your beeeeehind was gettin' sore...!!! :hilarious: ;)

Just curious about this. I know that the theaters around here have "reserved" seating. I haven't been to any of those theaters in years. My question is this: so, let's say you reserve a seat in a specific location. What if you have noisy people around you, and you want to move? (In the past, I've moved to a different seat in a theater, if there was a noisy crowd.) But if you have to stay in a "reserved" seat--you could get stuck there, right? o_O

True unless it isn't a very full theater. I change seats at times because I am short. A tall person sits in front of me and I would move.

It is nice though, you can online order ticket and not have to show up 'till start time and know you have good seats and seats together. I tend to wait a few weeks to go to a theater for a newer release. All and all I'd rather watch most films on demand or on DVD, NetFlix

My silly cat, who has IBS, has been on a diet of pumpkin mixed in with wet food for her dinner. Well, while I was on vacation, she refused to eat the wet food out of spite for me going away. Guess who now is having problems with her IBS?

Called the vet and prescription food is evidently the next step. Ugh!

Hoping that when we get the new cat, they'll make friends so maybe she'll be a bit less spiteful about when I'm not there.
Hugs to both of you.
