May 24

Happy Memorial Day weekend!  I hope this post finds your families enjoying time together. 

My last post was Lisa back in the hospital.  By Tuesday, she was stable and transitioned back to the Hurstbourne Care Center.  She lost several days of rehab and that set her back a bit.  She had hoped to be out by now and it looks like (praying nothing else goes wrong) it could be a couple of weeks away before she gets home.  I cannot imagine how frustrating it would be to be out of commissions for months at a time, but this is not new for Lisa  - and that is such a sad thing to me.

She was so happy that Jake and Franckie came up to the hospital last weekend before her prom to show off how pretty she looked and how handsome he was.  The nurses were making them stop all the way down the hall saying how cute they looked.  That brought a smile to Lisa's face.   Until jake tried to eat some dorito's in his tux... oh well, he didn't get any on his clothes - thankfully.  

Today is the birthday party for Graylen and Caroline.  They will be 3 and 8 year milestones.  We are hoping that Lisa can come - the kids would be so happy to see her and it would do her well to get out for a bit.  She had to have an extra dialysis treatment yesterday and has to go today as well - so i am not sure she will be feeling up to it.  I hope to report next that she was there and had fun... maybe i'll even  have some pictures from the birthday circus!

thanks for checking in!
