What a lovely few days we have had, together as a family.  Thanksgiving was very special with Dave’s family here for the day.  Braedon had a blast playing with his cousins, Austin and Kelton.  The adults enjoyed visiting around the fireplace.  The turkey was nice and moist, and I baked my first pecan pie.  It [...]

I would just like to take a minute this evening while we anxiously await the arrival of our Thanksgiving guests, to update everyone on the transplant news.  At this point we have been told week after week for four weeks that the next Friday would bring us an answer.   No answer as of yet, and [...]

I have some time this afternoon while my boy naps so I thought I’d update my blog.  I had several Doctors appointments this am, so it was a busy morning.  First off we went to see Dr. Martz to get an adjustment for my aching back.  He is so good, I could hardly move going [...]

Good Morning! I hope everyone has just had a wonderful weekend.  I know we sure did.  We went on Friday afternoon down to Cincinnati to Tom’s brothers house.  We all then went to a Collingsworth Family concert.  It was a real treat.  It was fun to see so many old friends whom we haven’t seen [...]

Just wanted to pass along info reguarding my transplant.  We got word yesterday that the news we were hoping to hear on Friday this week, will not happen til the first of next week sometime.  You know there always seems to be a delay of some kind, but that is OK!  We are not pushing [...]

I know I know, it is unbelievable that I am posting again so soon.  I just have so much to pass along this week I thought I’d do it here.  After weeks, months, and even years now of waiting for a kidney transplant we are down to the week in which we should here if [...]

What a blessing to have the sun shining so brightly this morning.  It seems as though it has rained for weeks.  I don’t think that this is even an exaggeration.   Life has just been plugging along here.  I have had numerous doctors appointments, getting cleared once again  for surgery.   Our beautiful transplant angel friend is [...]

I don’t know how it is at your house, but at ours we have a pretty excited little fellow who cannot wait to go trick or treating.  This is the first year for it to be a special  event at our house.  It just took one look at the first little goblin last  year and [...]

I am sorry it has been so long since I have blogged.  I guess this past summer went alittle off plan about July 3rd, and we just now are returning to a somewhat normal schedual.  Wow what a journey it has been.  Thinking back to the beginning and trying to blog it is almost overwhelming, [...]

Wow, has this ever been a busy month.  It started out with the trip down to my parents with Judy to do a kitchen make-over at their house.  Now that seems to have happened ages ago with all that has happened since.  Last weekend we had our wonderful friend, Frank Baldwin with us  Sat-Sun.  What [...]
