· I’m settling down for the long haul in my favorite
chair. Yes, it needs washing. Yes, the sofa and Morris chair could do with
some soap and water too. They aren’t
getting it quite yet. One more day at
work.

· Diane: Her
daughter writes in Diane’s blog SCHMIDLEY'SSCRIBBLINGS:
“I read all your posts to Mom yesterday at the hospital. Although
she cannot speak yet, I saw a tear coming from the corner of her eye. This
morning she was put back in ICU for atrial fibrillation of her heart, which may
have also caused the stroke. She is stabilized and will be moved back to the
Acute Stroke Unit. I reminded her that many people are praying for her, and she
squeezed my hand tightly. The stroke affected the part of her brain that
controls alertness as well as sleep cycles, so we are waiting for her brain to
heal enough so that she is more alert and can begin therapies. It is slow
progress, but hopefully there will be some changes in this next week. I will
keep checking back here and posting. Love to you all -Connie (Dianne’s
daughter.”

· My friend Robert is doing fractionally better too after the removal of a kidney. His wife Carol keeps us updated on her blog Tehachap
· I know you haven’t forgotten Hattie. She like Diane reads and pokes us to open our minds. She's beginning treatments for lunch cancer tomorrow, and my thoughts and prayers are with her.
Everyone is getting worn, I think.

Me: Last time at the pool this morning. Cat scan of my sinuses after lunch. Once I get both wrappings off, I will be
right back in the pool at seven every morning.
I do think I will cut back on the Discovery Shop work a bit once I get
hand strength back. I post to their Facebook
page 7 days a week, I do the receipts 3 days, I sort one day and do books
another. Instead, I think I really want
to go back to my writing class. I wonder
if they would let me come back to work just one day a week just for the books? Don't forget, I won't be able to type for a while.

George is going back to eight hours a day with one hour for
lunch. Heaven.
Good thoughts headed your way during your surgery, Mage.
ReplyDeletePrayers for Diane and David as they face these challenges at this time. I pray Diane's spirit and determination get her through this health crisis. I think of her often!
Sounds like you're well-organized for your after-surgery recovery so should have a good mind-set going through the procedure and afterward. Will be sending positive thoughts your way.
ReplyDeleteAren't you a volunteer for the Discovery Store? As such, you get to call the tune.
ReplyDeleteThe store would be nuts not to accommodate you! Sending thoughts of good healing your way. Dianne as well. Been a rough winter.
