HI ALL......................................................

[Guest guest]

I LOVE YOU ALL AND JUST WANT YOU TO KNOW OUR FAMILY HAS A BIG

GATHERING HERE ON SUN. 1ST MAR. GINA'S 49TH B/DAY. GINA HERSELF IS

BAKING THE BIG TURKEY. SHE IS MAKING MY FAMOUS ITALIAN SAUSAGE

STUFFING THAT IS RAISED MY CHILDREN ON. WE ARE JUST GOING TO VISIT

AS GINA AND DENNIS CAN NOT EAT ICE CREAM AND CAKE, (NO SUGAR). I

WILL EAT WHAT EVERYONE ELSE CAN'T. LAST NIGHT, EARL WENT TO THE

STORE AND BROUGHT HOME A GALLON OF ROCKY ROAD AND A GALLON OF FUDGE

RIPPLE ICE CREAM AND THAT IS WHAT BRENDA AND I WERE ENJOYING DURING

AMERICAN IDOL. IT WAS SO SOOTHING AND COOL AND NUTTY.

WE ARE SO VERY BLESSED WITH BRENDA IN OUR LIVES. KATIE THINKS SHE

MAKES THE SUN SHINE EVERY MORNING.

YESTERDAY I FELL FOR THE FIRST TIME IN MY SMALL HALF BATH FORTUNATELY

NOT HURTING ANYTHING BUT SOME PRIDE. MY BREATHING IS SHORTENING

SOMEWHAT, I CAN FEEL IT. I HAD 3 SHOTS OF MORPHINE THIS MORNING UPON

ARRIVAL FROM THE BED. HOSPICE YESTERDAY BROUGHT A NICE EGG CRATE (NO

EGGS IN IT THOUGH) SO THE BED DIDN'T GOOEY OR GET MESSY. BRENDA PUT

IT ON AND IT IS JUST WONDERFUL AND HAD THE BEST NIGHT SLEEP EVER.

YOU WHO DON'T USE AN EGG CRATE SHOULD TRY IT. IT MADE ALL THE

DIFFERENCE IN MY NIGHT. I DON'T THINK I MOVED ONCE.

THIS MORNING PAID A FEW BILLS, AND NOW BRENDA IS IN FOR THE " FIGHT "

OF HER LIFE AS WE ARE ABOUT TO EMBARK ON A " SCRABBLE " AFTERNOON.

I MAY NOT BE ON MUCH NEXT FEW DAYS, HAVE BEEN FEELING SOME WEAKER AND

WEEPY WHICH IS ALL PART OF WHAT IT IS, YOU KNOW. I DO KNOW I AM

WEAKER AND CAN TELL AND BRENDA CAN TELL TOO, SO CAN EARL.

(KATIE JUST KEEPS ON GETTIN' HER MILK BONES) HAAHHAHHAHHAHA

I AM NOT DEPRESSED AT ALL JUST FEELING WEAKER AND A LITTLE

EMOTIONAL. THAT SHOULD PASS AS SOON AS I CAN GET BRENDA TO GET ME

SOME LUNCH.

SEE YOU LATER. PLEASE ALL ENJOY GINA'S BIRTHDAY EVEN WITHOUT GETTING

ANY CAKE OR ICE CREAM. I, MYSELF, WOULD RATHER HAVE THAT HUGE TURKEY

GINA IS BRINGING. I HOPE NO ONE BRINGS " CANNED PEAS " .

I LOVE YOU THIS DAY.

You're such a good example and an inspiration for us all. I do see you

taking advantage of no one dare telling you not to eat what you want.

Poor family that has to watch their diet.

Give a hug for me. I'm so happy you were so lucky with who you

got. Don't you wish you could have had a long ago when you were

healthy, just to do everything you wanted?

I had never heard of the egg crates but, of course, googled and have

looked at them. They don't look comfortable to me but lots of people out

there swearing they are and you certainly seem to love yours.
