Hi Courage-

Thanks for writing back. It seems you have been

quiet but that doesn't mean you are out of my

thoughts and prayers.

I can emphasize with you cleaning out your parents'

house. It is an odd feeling. Good to have behind you,

odd just the same.

Please keep us posted as to the new grand baby. Is

she actually due in 2 weeks? Or is there testing to

determine the gender?

Unbelievable that your dad is eating the LTCF's food.

He had given such fits, over so many things, that now

eating the LTCF food is such a blessing. There is hope

yet!

is still away in Europe. I have talked with him

last week and again on Sunday. A small mishap

but all in all, he is doing well. He sounded so good

on Sunday. He comes home Tuesday the 11th.

So many sights seen and so many more to see

before they come home.

Many hugs and prayers to you up North-

Sandie

(having an absolutely beautiful day here in Des Moines)

Thanks you two for keeping me in your thoughts.

On the weekend we cleaned mom and dad's house in honour of my mom - she

was the cleanest person I ever knew (one cleaning job away from OCD!).

As of today the house now belongs to a young couple. It was tough but I

kept my mind on the cleaning tasks.

Dad has moved into a room on the same side of the building as mom so if

they have to prevent visitors due to upper respiratory infections he can

still see mom. And, shock of all shocks - he is actually eating some of

the LTCF's food! Our caregiver Lyn has been feeding him and he is going

along with it. I never thought I'd see the day as many of you know how

much of a hard time he has given me at every turn.

My children and are doing well and I hope to learn whether I will

be enjoying a new grand-daughter/son in about two weeks time.

Thanks again for thinking of me.
