ML,

Oh my precious friend. You make me cry and then laugh out loud all in a few sentences. The mental picture of you jumping on the air mattress with poor Earl flying up in the air....you make me laugh funny lady!

I'm so glad that you are happy and well taken care of. You and Earl and are in my prayers.

Love you very much!

He did that and after he was all tucked in and fed and watching tv, I came to bed to get into my bed but when I did I told him that when I wake up in the morning I am going to crawl down to the bottom of my hospice bed and stand up and jump really high up in the air and come down and land on one corner of the air mattress so his body would fly up in the air then we could hold hands coming down. hahahahahhhhhshshsh shasdfasdjfaskdj fsdkjfalsjfdasld kfaslfdjI sure hope you thought that was as funny as I did.

Lou

It is so uplifting just to hear from you and read of your adventures.

Simple fact is that for you yesterday was a good day and last night was

a good night and today seems to be a good day. I don't like garlic bread

so will take everything but the tuscan bread, even some of your

morphine...lol. I knew a psychologist years ago who always asked the

question of groups, " did you have more good days than bad days this

week. " You know, lot's of perfectly healthy people have very few good

days. If they could only read what you write. Living comfortably with an

aide like there all day and and a loving husband.....isn't

that the life we all hope for, regardless of age or condition? You sure

are proving so much and such an inspiration. I just love reading " I feel

marvelous. " And one more thing to just remember is that each and every

day you're bringing happiness to those there with you, to and to

Earl and you're bringing happiness, peace, and inspiration to so many of

us here. Not only are you having good days but you're still giving more

than you realize.

all tucked in and fed and watching tv, I came to bed to get into my bed

but when I did I told him that when I wake up in the morning I am going

to crawl down to the bottom of my hospice bed and stand up and jump

really high up in the air and come down and land on one corner of the

air mattress so his body would fly up in the air then we could hold

hands coming down.

Ah, my Lou. How wonderful to hear your beautiful printed voice again. I admire your spirit and your ability to find joy in life no matter the bodily difficulties. I have always though we should live more in our spirit and less in the body. You certainly do it well. And so does Earl. May God bless you both. Jack79/IPF - UIP/dx06/05 Maine

Just me !!!

I am fine just can't put words together properly from brain because of

the morphine. Dr. Haddad (pulmo) stopped in yesterday and made a

fresh pot of coffee and we talked for quite a while. The chemicals in

the morphine keep everything soft and limp and not meshing together

right. It takes me a long time to write a sentence as I have to keep

stopping and going back to correct mistakes. I do no write because it

is so hard to see also with my eyes all screwed up.

Thank you to all of you for your messages, emails and such that keep me

going every day. I am making home made spaghetti sauce today with

hamburger in it the way we like it, and will make garlic bread out of

tuscan bread in the toaster. Want some......????????? This is so

difficult for me as I am not used to slowing down for anything.

Last night Earl had his "angel wife", hahahahaha think of a very bright

idea about how he could get some sleep finally after 2 1/2 months of

sleeping in a chair. In the afternoon, a HUGE LIGHT BULB went off in my

head and God made another miracle for me. When Earl got home at 10pm, I

asked him to go into the closet to get our coleman queensize elect.

airmattress and blow it up and put it at the foot of my bed and then he

would be able to get a good night's sleep. He did that and after he was

all tucked in and fed and watching tv, I came to bed to get into my bed

but when I did I told him that when I wake up in the morning I am going

to crawl down to the bottom of my hospice bed and stand up and jump

really high up in the air and come down and land on one corner of the

air mattress so his body would fly up in the air then we could hold

hands coming down. hahahahahhhhhshshshshasdfasdjfaskdjfsdkjfalsjfdasldkfaslfdj

I sure hope you thought that was as funny as I did. He had a wonderful

nights sleep and I slept next to him in the air bed for the first time

in months. It was so good just to be next to him and he never moved and

neither did I. took the hospice bed. haahahha

I feel marvelous, Dr. Haddad wants to know how I am doing it. I told

him I wasn't,,,, that God was doing it as I have been praying for so

long, guess He is going to answer and finish one way or the other soon.

He said I looked good and hugged me so tight when he left, (I loved his

shirt), ha, as watching, ha, and he answered a lot of questions

I had for him. I did not know he was coming over until about 30 min..

before that.

If I get sick I will tell you, if you don't hear from me for a few days

at a time it is because I have gone to my secret island of healing and

prayer. I will be healed when My Lord says I am, then watch me fly to

the areas first where all the PF is. then you will be healed too, that

is part of my prayer agreement with the Lord.

WHO AM I TO SAY NO TO ME.

I LOVE YOU THIS DAY. (ALSO HI TO ALL NEWBIES TOO)
