Comments: That is great new about Christie. Prayers work! Actually Richard I had warned Alfred at El Fenix that you might be coming by & described you to him - that is why you got thrown out. He went to school with my Dad & is a friend of ours. Since we did not get to come to your party we told him to throw you out of his ![]() ![]() ![]()
Comments: Just returned from a Dallas weekend, only to read about Christie. I do hope she is doing well. I think I've known her since grade school. We went to the El Fenix downtown, but when they found out we were ex-socite's they nearly turned us away. Apparently there had been a ruckus a week or so ago by some SOCite women....really raised some @#$@#.
Comments: SNL, thank youfor the wonderful news....we really needed to hear that this morning. Prayers will continue for Christie and her family. Rosemary...happy birthday to a beautiful lady!
Comments: Good News About Christie- - I have recvd word she had surgery yesterday (2-18) btwn 4:00 & 8:00pm. Dr. told them it was successful & she is now resting comfortably in ICU!!! The family again asked that we NOT CALL THE HOME! While in ICU only immediate family will be able to see her & go in. As soon as she is moved in to a reg rm they will let us know & then they will welcome calls & cards!! Of course, you can send cards now to her house & someone will bring them to the hospital. Prayers work ... continue them for her full & rapid recovery!! The surgery is over & now she can start recuperating! Now we can all breathe ...
Comments: ...on a more upbeat note....Happy Birthday to a really classy lady...Rosemary Zapata Cooper!
Comments: Yes, her family knows how much we care about Christie & it was her dtr & son that made the request for us not to call as they wanted some quite "family time" with their Mom before surgery. In Adam's em he said he'd let me know when she goes into surgery. Just for the record, I know 2 people personally that have recently had this surgery & both were 100% successful & they are both doing great!! Christie is feisty & strong-willed (duh) and she'll be fine. How would you like to be Christie's kids ... in her room trying to keep Mom off the pho & resting!! Now THEY have the HARD job!! Send up a few prayers for them too!! ![]()
Comments: SNL - just let the family know that they are on our prayer list and in my thoughts.
Comments: JD, I like your poem ![]() ![]()
Comments: Yes Ada, usually the day goes by quickly, but tda it drug by slowly. I haven't gotten anymore em from Adam, so we'll just have to wait. I can imagine how awful it has been for Christie & her family as they sit & wait in her room. Christie is supposed to rest & her kids are trying to see that she does. We'll just have to keep going until we hear that she has gone into surgery -- could be anytime! I know the GB has been quite tda . . . I guess everyone is like me ... I'm upset & speechless!
Comments: This waiting for news about Christie is getting very nerve wracking. I just can't imagine how she, her family and dearest friends (Eileen and Pat) feel. She has been on my mind all day as I'm sure she has been for all of you. Let's all keep the positive thoughts going and encircle her in our love and support.
Comments: Sandy , Thanks Your are always keeping us in the know !
Comments: Update on Christie - - I've recvd em from her son, Adam, and he asked that we not call the hospital or send flowers just yet! He said they would like some quite "family time" together before she goes into surgery! It's an hour-by-hour situation and they can take her to surgery at any time! When she comes out of Recovery she'll go into ICU, then later to a new room. Please respect the family's wishes at this time & give them their privacy! He will let us know as soon as anything changes and she goes to surgery. He also thanked us for caring & our prayers. And yes, they will take us up on our offer to stay with Christie at night as the family is already getting worn out. Therefore, any of you ladies who would be available to sit all night with Christie after surgery, please send me an email with your Name, Contact # and what nights you might be available. Just indicate Monday,Saturday, Fri etc as we don't know exactly when she will go to surgery. Nothing more just that info. Be specific and brief. I'll keep it and when Adam or Amy call I'll see who can go and what nights each can be there. Don't send me your info if you can't follow thru, this is serious and we need to be able to follow thru with our offers! Let's respect the children's wishes as they want to have time with their Mom before she goes to surgery and they're trying to have her rest like the Dr. asked her to. I promise I will pass on anything I hear from the family as soon as I get it. For now, we have to be patient and pray. They will need us even more after surgery.
Comments: JD -- Awww! What a poet you are. Did you write your wife a poem for Valentine Day?
Comments: SNL, thanks for the update about Christie. Please let Christie and her family know that I am thinking nothing but positive thoughts and will keep all of them in my prayers. This news really hits home with me for many reasons....I'm too upset to post anymore....sorry.
Comments: I know all you warm weather friends of mine have asked me ove and over...how could I continue to live in Wisconsin...well...I thought about it and here is my final answer: It's winter in Wisconsin And the gentle breezes blow Seventy miles an hour At twenty-five below. Oh, how I love Wisconsin When the snow's up to your butt You take a breath of winter And your nose gets frozen shut. Yes, the weather here is wonderful So I guess I'll hang around I could never leave Wisconsin 'Cause I'm frozen to the ground! So now ya know!!! ![]() |
