March 26

I just talked to Gail Blanton. He is now in rehab. And hoping to start PT tomorrow. They are supposed to measure for his prosthetic soon too.

The food at rehab is not too bad, but he's not hungry. He needs to build his strength for crutches so he can get up and transfer from bed to wheelchair, etc.

Sending blessings to all of us as we move through our health issues. It's not easy or fun but our support systems can make it bearable.

Love, Gayle

I have a mammogram on Tuesday! This is the end of the first year!! I'm praying everything's ok and that the surgery, the chemo and the oral medications are doing their job!!!

June 6

I'm now through all the active treatments for cancer. The last was the every 3 week Herceptin infusion for a year. There is a hiccup of occasional heightened BP that can result with light headedness and dizziness. I called the Oncologist first since she prescribed the oral estrogen blocker I take daily. She told me to contact my PCP about the BP med she has me on and see about adjusting that dosage. I told you all this to say I cancelled my plans to come to the Mini on the 6th. I don't know day to day how I'm going to feel. Hopefully next year I'll have everything balanced and can come to the 60th!!!

Love, Gayle

Sue Henson, I have been telling you for many years that socker was not your game and to stick to the piano.  Knees and hips are best done in pairs......when it is all over and recovery is in the distant past, you will be glad you had it done while you are still young.  Hang in there kid, you will be able to "climb every mountain" soon enough. 🚁

Update from Sue Henson

All is well had (hip replacement) surgery august 7. In rehab at The Lodge. Lots of pain but God is giving me the strength. This will get better.  

Getting good care.  It's rare for this to happen. My body didn't do what it was suppose to. This surgery was anterior. Cut halfway down my thigh even. I don't care about scars. Just want to be without pain. I was hospitalized for 3 days then transferred to The Lodge 5 days weekly of pt and occupational. I can do this. 😃

Good afternoon!

It's 8 degree chill factor I understand in Central Ohio today! Through chattering teeth I would still live here over anywhere else!!! The church just posted their winter festival info. I laughed and said I'd come if there are no winter events!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY to EACH of US as we move through the year! May we live each day to the full. Not taking anyone or anything for granted!!!

We have a 60th reunion coming up. So that means we will be 78-79-80 years old this year? How is that possible? 

Blessings and peace to you all!!!

Love, Gayle

February 1, 2024

I just got off the phone with Gail Blanton. First off and the best news I think is that he is now under the care of the VA. That means they are taking over his medical care, the surgery on the other leg, the physical therapy he needs to get him walking and the rehab facility once he is able to go!!!

Please pray for the surgery tomorrow. His circulation is not good in the other leg and they are taking it off above the knee tomorrow morning at 10 AM. I asked about the foot removal on the first leg? Is it okay and stable and he said yes!!!

Please also pray that the VA in Clearwater will follow through on his care and get him walking again soon!!! He probably won't make the 60th but being able to walk and being cared for by medical professionals that really care is the most important!!!
