It's been a while now since I've posted a blog and a lot has been happening... so rather than rambling on about each separate episode which could very easily spawn into its own separate blog post, I'll spare you the details and go bullet point on this one:
- My jury duty came and went. My juror number wasn't called - in fact none of the 200+ jurors were needed and we all got dismissed early!
- We made almost $300 dollars at our first ever garage sale (not selling the wedding gifts, but rather the old things they are now replacing!)
- We joined a small group at our church which we're very excited about. Almost half of the group are Calvin alumni - strange coincidence since we go to a non-denom church :)
- I had a coronary artery scan done and the results show zero calcification (plaque build up). So much for the "modern medicine" theory that elevated LDL = heart disease!! I'll keep eating my red meet and other cave-man foods thank you very much!
That's the cliff notes of what we've been up to. For the full digest give me a call or send me an e-mail!

Hey Vyn,
ReplyDeleteAwesome results with the scan. I'm happy for you and hopefully it has eased your mind. Amy has gone wild selling things on Craigslist. She has made around 600 bucks doing this. Sold some big things bust mostly 20 to 30 dollar sales.

It has eased my mind significantly - and although my lipidologist attributes this positive result to the years of being on statins, he is ok with me continuing my diet and reevaluating periodically. I can't wait till I get another scan in a year with continued LDL scores of 300 + and prove to him that cholesterol is insignificant and doesn't cause heart disease.
