news from Mom

Hi, I have been in PA from Tuesday until Friday evening. Your Aunt Jean needed a bit of surgery on the polyps in her lower bowel. My, she had lost so much blood by putting off going to a doctor that her iron was very low and she was as pale as a ghost. Even by Friday, with the bleeding stopped she had color back in her face. Her energy was also starting to pick up. I am very blessed to have children who are concerned with me and help me when I need it. Her kids make me pretty angery as they never seem to be there when she needs them. I wish she would learn to be a bit more independent, and not have to call on them for the little things, they may be more willing to do the bigger stuff for her. Both Doug and Toby were sick with the cold and flu while I was gone. Maybe Jean was a blessing, as I was not here to inhale their bugs. Visited Bell and Claude. both are looking good. Bell has lost some weight and boy she has a nice figure. You would never know that she is 85 and Claude is 90. I will be going with Doug to look at cars next week. Seeing I am his financisl advisor, I will negotiate on his behalf(I know how much he can afford). Talked with Mike and Donna today. Donna is in Regina for some of her meeting. Love to all Mom
