Joe, Peter, Gorgeous Georgia, Little Angel Alie and myself would love to wish you all a very good morning.
We are still in major healing mode in this house… inside and out. We appreciate all your thoughts and prayers and keep them coming because we sure can use them.
I will fill you in more later but for now… Peter has started week 5 of his IV intravenous 3 times a day and went to the surgeon and said that the surgery area looked good.
Joe’s doctor has given us a few things to try for him, Georgia is getting extra fluids now 3 times a week and for me… hanging in and I should know more second week of July. Still intense back pain and still on oxygen.
How is everyone out there? Enjoying the weather? Have any July 4th plans? Fill us in ok… we would love to hear about it!
Sending hugs to all!!!!
