STILL AWAY

I'm still in Omaha with my mom (Carol Ann), and my return home is unknown at this time. They are running every test under the sun to find another primary site in hopes of not doing the risky brain biopsy. She was moved out of ICU on Friday. Thank you for your prayers and words of encouragement! Keep 'em coming ... we could use a miracle!

I'll start up with blogging, iPICKS, and Sweet Sunday Sketch Challenge when I get back home in a normal routine.

    I've been thinking of you Nancy and didn't realize you were in Omaha, just a couple hours from me! Your mother should be in good hands...along with all our thoughts and prayers. If you're still there next weekend, i would love to drive down and take you to lunch. Email me, ok? Hugs, Pam :)pspeidel@ptcnet.net

I have had my fair share of pain, and it ain't pretty. Don't worry about us, we will still be here. Thanks so much for the update. Hugs to You and Mom.

    Nancy,
    Behind in reading my favorite blogs so just realized you went to Omaha to be with your Mom. That is exactly where you should be at a time like this. More prayers are sent your way for you and your Mom. It's always encouraging when someone is moved out of ICU so hopefully she's gotten some relief. Take care!
