What's Happening In Your Life?

My car is out of order, today morning it did not want to start, nothing happened's! I hope only the battery is empty! So I had to call even at the work to say that I can't come! Thus I was only in 1 instead of in 2 schools, the other school is only a 10 min. away from my home, there I could go then.

Sorry to hear about your car, Koala - ugh, what a pain! Did you find out what the problem was?

Did you find out what the problem was?

Yes, it was only the battery they was empty,luckily nothing serious! Because this mostly means also expensive! We had connected the car the whole night on a battery charger, now it runs again without problems!

Tell me about it Koala! I hate car repairs! Do you have an electric car then? Is it economical to run. Petrol over here is getting sooooo expensive.

Soda, I'm glad the tornado missed you. I hope nobody suffers from the brunt of the weather this year.

Mike, gorgeous pics. Your grandchildren are adorable.

Cathy, glad you can use both the chests and that the decorating project is going so well.

We have ahd beautiful weather the last few days, its putting everyone in a great mood. AND its due to last for at least a fortnight! Thats a better summer than we had last year already.

Tuesday morning (ed: don't know what day it is!), my brother Johnny had a stroke. It must have happened during the night for when his wife awoke to take care of him, he seemed more unresponsive than was his "normal". She called the Hospic folks out to see if there was anything they could do and while there, the nurse did indicate that he had all the symptoms of a mild stroke.

The got him in to the main Hospic House a short distance away Tuesday night and the Doctor saw him Wednesday morning. Sadly, he gave him 48 hours at the outside. He was having some trouble breathing but it was drainage from his sinuses (not fluid in his lungs) which they treated with some eye-drops under his tongue. The side effect of that medication is that it does dry up sinuses and seems to work.

He was restful last night and doesn't seem to be in any pain, but he is totally non-responsive to any stimulus. It is not at all likely that he'll recover from this last attack on his body and mind.

I'm glad that Verna and I were able to go down a couple of weeks ago and visit with him. At that time, he knew who we were and other than having a hard time hearing us talk (bad hearing loss) he was carrying on conversations without losing his concentration. I was intending to obtain a hearing aid for him thinking that would make communications a lot less effort for him. I hever had the chance to get one packaged and sent down.

Rhonda, his wife, is hanging tough and both my sisters are sticking with my Mother.

Ohh Mike--I'm so very sorry to hear this! I'm thinking of you and your family.

[sodascouts]

How awful, Mike. I'll be praying for your brother and your family.

[tbs fanatic]

So sorry to hear that, Mike. Thinking of you and yours.

Mike, I'm so sorry and will keep you all in my thoughts and prayers.
