August 7

Judy sent three sticky notes for me to place on today's post.  It goes as follows:

"So, part of this blog is going to be from me, Judy, today, to say my own words of thanks.   I am, once again, humbled by the love, care, thoughts, and prayers from all of you. It's quite overwhelming and to be honest, I can only process small amounts at a time.  My appreciation also goes out to you for the support you've provided to Alvin and the girls.  Words are not enough.  I am looking forward to catching up with everyone after I get home.  Much love, Judy."

In today's news, Judy had 3 staples removed from an area that was weeping a bit.   She felt much better with the three staples removed.  She went for a few walks today and ate lunch sitting in her chair.  She has a specially designed air cushion to sit on.  So far, no pain in the butt.  She climbs into bed with relative ease.  Catheter may come out tomorrow.  She had cream of wheat for breakfast and cream of celery soup for lunch as well as yogurt.

If all goes very well, Judy could be out around the weekend.

Mary and I are off to the Ex.  Audrey is doing evening chores for me tonight.
