Hello folk - we want first to thank you for the words of support and affection that have been coming our way - the e-mails , food and cards are a reminder of the wider circle of our friends that we have known over the years.
Today has been one of trying to integrate the information we received from the surgeon yesterday. Last night was a terrible night for Shelley - likely a migraine caused her to have her head in the toilet bowl for several hours. Besides a rather tender tummy, she is in very little stress today. Our doctor has been very helpful with sorting out the pain medication.
One of the things the surgeon told us was to '"get your affairs in order". This is a code phrase to sort out my documents and all those things that I have held onto lo these many years. We had begun this sorting process some while back but, of course, now it has much more urgency attached to it. There is something both absolutely wretched and yet at the same time very healing to look at those things that bring back precious memories of times and people in my life. The blue bags are filling up and we are setting aside stuff for a yard sale one day. There is also a box of treasures for the things we are not ready to put aside.
It is good to see the sun shining. I hope it shines where you are. We are off for the weekend.
