Prayers continue Dee for your friend and family. Will your mom drink any of the nutritional shakes out there like Boost or ensure? They may help her keep her strength up when food is not appealing. Alot of cancer patients will drink Carnation breakfast drink with ice cream blended as a shake. Very high calorie plus getting the nutrition needed. When will she see the specialist?

Wow, what a scary week-end. My niece and one of her friends had a 4-wheeler accident. They had to call the ambulance to rush them both to the hospital and then airlift the friend to LeBounher Children's hospital in Memphis. They are both bruised and battered pretty badly, but, luckily, that's all. They kept them overnight for observation for concussions and then sent them home. They'll be sore for awhile.

Dee, I'm glad you're able to find peace when you're camping. I used to enjoy camping. Some day, when the kids are older, I plan to start again.

Hello Gayle, Janice and Shelley. to you all.

Dee - my heart breaks for you. You have so much sadness to deal with. Prayers to you, your family and your friends. I wish I was there to give you a hug. We are here for you when you need us.

Hello all!

First and foremost--Dee, you have been on my heart. I hope you are finding peace in your life. I agree with Janice, you know we are here for you!

Janice, when do you start your new job? Are you nervous or is it going to be second nature to you?

Gayle, my lovely, how is the weather in Kansas? Hot and muggy? Man, it is here!

Shelley, time to stop FB'ing and come pay us a visit

Suzy--we would LOVE to have you back!! Debbi, too, if she's interested and not too busy with school!

Good Morning Ladies,
My Aunt Shirley passed away on Monday, the funeral was yesterday. The service was very moving she was an amazing lady.
I will be fine in my new job, I start September 4th, I am on vacation next week and then thats it for a while. We are finally getting warm weather the pool is up to 80 degrees.
Have a good weekend all.

Janice I sent you the nice hot weather. We have had an awesome hot week. I was out at the lake, trying to recharge.
Thanks for support.
I am sorry to hear of the passing of your aunt. Was she sick for awhile?

Cheryl that is pretty scary. 4 wheelers can be so dangerous. A friend of mine died when he was only 20 from a 4 wheeler accident.
When your kids get older they will love camping.

Gayle I brought my mom a ice cream flavor protein shake last friday. I have to find out if she likes it.
How is your mom doing?

Shelley Happy anniversary! How many years is it?

I will start with good news. Dez seen the specialist this week, had some tests done and the dr thinks that it looks good. It will be a month before we get the results. While it looks good the dr did remind Dez that she has cancer and that the operation was not a cure but a treatment. She will go back in 4 months if all is well on the tests.

Steward had the breathing tubes taken out but now they are back in. He needed surgery on tuesday. they did an angioplastic on an artery in his brain. He isn't doing to good right now.

Another good friend of ours that Larry also works with had a heart attack wednesday night. He is only 45 and just about 20 pounds over weight but does smoke. We have been telling him that he needs to be careful and to go see a dr. They will do angioplastis on him next week.

It has been a rough week now I need to phone my mom and see how she is doing. As far as I know she hasn't an appointment with the specialist yet.

My little 3 month old niece is on life support following complications from surgery to remove the mass on her lung. Please lift your hearts up in prayer for this little angel. Last night her brain was beginning to swell. They are not able to do a brain wave test until she can change to a different ventilator and can come out of the heavy sedation. Their minister was making the 5 hour trip to be with them yesterday at Childrens Mercy in KC. So sorry about your aunt, Janice. I guess we should treasure the time we have with our loved ones here in this world. She sounds like an amazing woman. Are you doing OK with the added stress of starting a new job too?

Dee, mom is OK, the docs keep saying this is just where she is at for now. They prescribed her a narcotic pain patch, it seems to be helping so she can sleep better. You have your plate full too with mom & Dez. Is your mom losing weight from the lack of appetite?

Gayle I am sorry to hear that your little neice has had such a struggle so early on in life. I will pray for her everyday until I hear she is well. God bless her and her family, let them feel his presense.

Not looking good at all. I still need to confirm it with her mom & dad later but my SIL called and said the CT scan today came back with no brain function. They are taking the meds away from her which control body movement to see if they are making the brain not show movement. Basically, it is a last resort to an outcome none of us want to face. Her mom & dad will be needing to make a very difficult decision within the next few days.

If no changes after the reduction of meds, Mom & Dad need to make a decision by noon or so tomorrow. God bless our little Angel.

Little Kristen

Gayle I am sorry to hear the sad news. I guess there still is a little hope. I am still praying for a miracle. Thanks dfor posting Kristens picture. She is a darling. I pray for strength for her parents.

Gayle - you are in my thoughts, my prayers are for a miracle for little Kristen. God be with you.

Janice did you hear on the news about Tyrone Wilson being hit while walking down 401 and killed sunday morning at 4:00am?

He was my friend Jackie (the one that died of brain cancer) her grandson. He also went to school with Dez, we knew him since he was in grade 7. He moved to ontario about 4 years ago. If you hear more in the papers if they are going to charge the guy that was driving the truck let me know, ok?

Man it just seems like it never ends.

Gayle - my thoughts and prayers are with you and the family of little Kristen. Such sad news, poor little lamb. She is in Gods hands now. I can't think of anything worse than losing a child. God be with you at this difficult time.
Dee - Sad news about Tyrone I wonder why he was walking down 401 at 4 am. Did his car break down?
Dee - thanks for the heatwave!
