Thought it would be easier to check in here rather than answer all the emails from you. Thank you everyone for your positive thoughts and prayers. All is good now and I am on the mend. For those of you who don't know what's been going on. Briefly, I had been losing a lot of weight, went for a colonoscopy and there was a mass in my sigmoid colon. Needless to say, we were all concerned for cancer. A week later (about 3 weeks ago) I was in the hospital and had a colon resection. Apparently my colon had wrapped around my left ovary so it too was removed. The final pathology came back and it was NOT cancer but rather diverticulosis. I will find out more details Tuesday when I see the surgeon again. I was in the hospital from Friday until Tuesday, went home, and Friday went back in with pain and blockage. Lots of fluids, antibiotics, etc., and went home for good on Sunday. Mom and Dad were, are still in town and were so amazing. Janet coincidentally was planned for a visit so she was here too. She and Mom took turns sleeping on the pull-out couch in the hospital. David and his family were also in town for a visit. Funny how divine timing works. I'm recovering well and now and on a mission to gain weight. Fun huh?
So my beautiful granddaughter Faye turned one in March. That's her picture above. Tayo is hoping to make a trip down here the end of this month with both girls. I can't wait. We Skype and talk on the phone and they just make my heart giggle.
Christopher is still in Portland, not liking the rain but enjoying his 2 jobs and the experience. I miss not having him pop in but he's good about keeping in touch.
Well, that's about it. I'm going to try to be more reliable about blogging.
I hope you are all well and counting your blessings every day.
