LIFE THROWS WHAT IT HAS AT US

WE ARE IN LAS CRUCES NM AT AN RV PARK, SPENDING ANOTHER DAY WAITING OUT BAD WINDS. Yet that is not the worst...we received a bad news phone call from CA -from Kevin our son Steve's friend Sunday night and the news only gets worse from here. Unchecked diabetes. Our big boy is in Sutter hospital in Roseville CA for treatments but now it looks like he will lose a foot. Talked to him this AM and he is very depressed.

We will take all the prayers we can get.

We are backing out of the conference we hoped to attend in Tucson and all other plans. We will proceed to CA. God knows there is nothing we can do but be with him.

Thankful for all the friends there who have stepped up to visit him. This may be the last blog post for several days now. Just when things look ahead---HAH!

  2. Dear Patty,
    So sorry to hear about your son's illness. As someone who as worked in the field for 35 years, I only know too well what havoc that this disease can cause on any one body at any one time. Sometimes there are no warning signs, and then again there are several before something goes terribly wrong. It is a disease that requires constant vigilance. I lost my dear sweet Aunt Wanda to complications of diabetes way before her time. My cousin Carol almost lost her foot also, but a visiting Russian surgeon at Presby was able to save it. My hope is that this will happen in Steve's case. All my good thoughts and prayers are sent your way. Hang In. xoxo Carlie
