Happy New Year! A visit from Deb's 'Sister'


Suddenly I realized that no posts had been made since last year! Shame on me!

This afternoon Jackie came to visit Deb. Jackie and Deb are teacher buds who both grew up in Albany,Ga. When they get together, look out! Gattling gums! They are a real hoot together.

Earlier today friend Mary dropped by. Yesterday friend Doris visited and brought lunch. Thanks!

These visits are a real blessing. Deb has been housebound due to weather, weakness, and trying to avoid the numerous bugs floating around out there. Deb has been downright lonely! I suggested she 'schedule' a daily visitor. Obviously she doesn't have the endurance for long visits, but if you want to get on her schedule for about an hour per visit, give her a call or email. I've been taking Deb to Tuesday chemo. Someone who would like to spend more time with her could take her back and forth to Piedmont Fayette on Tuesday mornings.

The sun room is proving to be a good decision as Deb is practically living in the sun room. It is so cheerful and comfy. Come check it out! Thanks, construction angels who made it possible!

If you look closely at Deb's picture above, you may see the fresh crop of hair coming in. Deb looks so good and is glad to leave the wig in wig storage.
Her lab numbers are looking good. We are very pleased with the treatment she is receiving. The facility and staff are first class.

I've been working as much as possible trying to catch up.

Trey, Katka, and Evelyn flew down to Ft. Meyers,Fl. a few days ago and rented a car to visit the Keys. They love the sea and diving. Later tonight they come back to Peachtree City. Sunday afternoon they return to Europe. We will miss them!

Blessings all!

  2. I have loved seeing all of the family pictures! Thanks for sharing them. I hope to come for a visit soon, but thought I'd wait until Trey and family leave. Joseph and the grand-dog left today. It seems really quiet after having everyone here. So thankful that all seems to be going well with the treatment here. You continue to be in my thoughts and prayers. Hugs. jan

  3. Vern, have y'all heard about cleaningforareason.org It's a group that will come in and clean your house once a month for people who are having chemo. It's nationwide supposedly. Just wondering.
