GOOD MORNING EVERYONE

We are all settled in here, well Kyle has settled us. He is taking such good care of me. It was a fiasco trying to get out of the hospital yesterday. After I wrote, we found out I had to have 2 units of blood before I left which takes about 5 hours and of course of all days I get the nurse who is just taking her time. We arrived here around 5:30, had a little snack and Doug, Mom, Barb D and Mary Ann Kidwell came to visit. It was so nice to see them......I know Kyle had beeen telling people not to come earlier when I was having so many problems, so I had only seen a few people recently..........so the hugs felt good and the conversation and gifts were great..... and yes, I did have some of that wedding cake ice cream, Doug! It was absolutely wonderful. I feel a bit stronger this morning and I'm sure each day will get better, I don't want to go back to that place.

    Hi Cindy,
    Glad to hear you made it out of jail...oops, I mean the clinic. I'm sure you feel like an immancipated woman!! You just take it slow and easy. You will feel better everyday, I'm sure of it. We leave for Florida today for a quick visit with my parents and brother. Hopefully when we get back you will be home and we can stop by for a long awaited visit. You take care and keep smiling. It's the best medicine ever!!
    Love,
    Jan

    HI CINDY
    SO GLAD YOU FINALLY GOT DISCHARGED FROM THE CLINIC AND SETTLED IN OVER AT HOPE LODGE. WHEN WE LEFT YESTERDAY YOU WERE JUST FINISHING YOUR LAST BLOOD BAG AND WAITING FOR IT TO BE FLUSHED. I KNOW YOU WERE REALLY DISAPPOINTED WHEN YOU FOUND OUT YOU HAD TO HAVE ANOTHER ONE BEFORE YOU COULD LEAVE. ENJOY YOUR FREEDOM OVER THERE AND HOPE TO SEE YOU THIS WEEKEND.

    Hello Cindy,
    Sooooo happy to hear you're at the Lodge now and will soon be enjoying the comforts of home again. You've been on such a roller coaster physically and mentally and YOU DID IT!!!!!! Enjoy the pampering and good food, get lots of rest to gain back your strength. My thoughts and prayers are with you Cindy.

    Bella! I missed the pics of you in your jammies until today!!!! You look awesome!!! Where'd you get them? I LOVE em! They look really shiny. I'm wondering if they MADE you wear them so they could find you at all times. You're coloring looks healthy and rosy. I hope you're feeling as good as you look and that everything is going well for you and Kyle. School has started and I so very much miss my kids from last year. Just as I said earlier, many asked about you. I told them to keep on praying. Keep doing whatever you're doing because you look FANTASTIC!
