Post Thanksgiving Medical Update

Saturday, November 26, 2005

Thanksgiving has come and gone.  To my total astonishment, Joyce decided to cook!!!  We had planned to go out for dinner but she came home Wednesday from grocery shopping and announced she had decided to cook.  We had all of the traditional stuff and stuffing.  Turkey, dressing, gravy pumpkin pie (I don’t like it.), cherry pie (I do like it.)  It was great and I stuffed myself as usual.

Shelley seems to be doing well after her heart surgery, Joyce is back home (Thank the good Lord.) and seems to be doing well from her shoulder surgery and her back surgery.  Nancy is recovering nicely from her hip replacement surgery.  I haven’t had surgery but I wish my shoulder and back problems could be fixed with surgery.  I am very tired of pain.

Tony was burglarized a few days after he returned to Washington from his Texas trip.  Of all the things they got, the one he will miss most is his camera.  

I received a call from my sister, Charlotte, in Rock Hill.  Pat (another sister) lives around the corner from Charlotte had a kidney removed a while back due to cancer.  She has been feeling some pain lately and went to the doctor.  The MRI was inconclusive so they are going to operate next Friday to see what is going on.  Everyone I know is having medical problems (Well, not everyone, Tony and Colin seem okay.)

Jeff is still recuperating from his heart attack.  He and Debbie are at odds about what constitutes exercise but my money is on Deb.  Jeff doesn’t have a chance.

I am going to close for now and go watch CSI.  See you on down the road.
