Place: Cypress Springs Comments: SNL - of course you guys are in my prayers. Wish we could have joined everyone at BMF last night.....I know that you all had a great time...the Dr. told me this week that I needed to keep my feet up all weekend to try to get the swelling to go away so he recommended that I not go out....  Missed several things including the Fire Awards Banquet.Between that and going to see mine and Bobby's mom all week the Dr. thought I had been putting to much stress on it and that is why it is swollen. I guess we will see if it works.
Place: Texas Comments: I haven't been on the GB much lately so am catching up. SNL - will be praying for Diane and Stephanie, and Don, praying for your brother and his healing. Sorry to hear about Bob Burns. SNL - Happy belated anniversary to you and Don! 27 years is a remarkable number to be married.
Place: Richardson Comments: Thanks Toni - Faith, Prayers & great Doctors is what has brought her this far. I use the plural bec there are so many doctors tending to her that we need a spreadsheet to keep up with all of them! Today is the 3rd good day. No setbacks or new problems or heart stoppage. . . therefore a good day. She's been on dialysis since late Thur & so far so good. Again, Thank You for all the prayers, each & everyone is felt! We plan to be at BMF dinner tonight & really look forward to seeing all our friends!!!
Place: Garland USA Comments: Oh my goodness, so sorry to hear about Bob Burns. We were friends on Facebook... Sandy, so sorry to hear about Stephanie's biological mom. She will be in our thoughts and prayers. What a thoughtful step-mom you are. See everyone tonight at the 3rd year kick off of the BMF Project. Don/Barbara, hope you got our click on Facebook that we would be there tonight. We have been trying for several days to figure out how to pay for our dinner but could never find the paypal link. We will just pay at the door. Don, still holding Doug in our thoughts and prayers.
Place: Richardson Comments: Thank you so much for all the prayers! For the 2nd day there have been no critical set backs. Diane, Stephanie's mom, is holding her own & her heart is beginning to work some on its own. They may remove the pump by Monday. Small steps, but at least for 2 days her heart hasn't stopped & the machines are quietly working. We're all praying this is the beginning to her long & slow recovery. I stopped by to see Mike Murray this afternoon & he is doing pretty good. Still working on getting his left arm & leg to work. He hopes in another 2-3 wks he may get mobile enough he can leave rehab & go to his dtr's hse. DWF & Barb-At this time, we plan to be at the BMF fund raising dinner Sat nite. Look forward to seeing our friends!
Place: Waxahachie Comments: Hey, guys, an old man here jumping over on your site to tell you about an experience I had yesterday that involved your class. I am having all my VHS tapes converted to DVD at a shop here in town and spotted a SOC 66 football DVD on the counter. My buddy who runs the shop said it was being copied for a customer named Hudspeth who I am sure is a distinguished member of your fine class. Just in passing. And oh Sandy, leaving in fifteen days for spring training. Hope to see you there. Take care and thanks for letting me drop in. Steve

Place: Sachse Comments: Sandy, you know you have my prayers too for Diane, Stephanie and all the family. Sad news about Bob Burns as well. But I know he is in a place of love and comfort now.
Place: Richardson Comments: Thank you Karen & Susan. We know she's gtng good care, but she is so critical & things are not gng well. After her massive heart attack in the early hrs of Sat mrng, her heart has stopped every day since! 4 days in a row! With each day new problems. Thank you for your concern & prayers, Stephanie & especially her mom need all they can get. We're headed bk up there shortly to see that Bill & Stephanie get lunch.
Place: Bosque County, TX Comments: Sandy please know your family will be in our prayers. That is a great hospital she is in and I know they will take good care of her. We stopped by Monday to see Mike Murray and he is making such good progress. My neices' father-in-law was also in the Heart Hospital over the Christmas holidays and he is doing wonderfully!!
Place: FW Comments: Sandy, I will keep Diane and Stephanie and the entire family on my prayer list. Don, I'll also keep Doug and your family on it, too.

Place: Richardson Comments: Haven't bn on site since Fri. It's bn a sad wkend & continues now. Early Fri our dtr, Stephanie, cld from her home in Austin & her mom was in Baylor Heart Hospital. She was having chest pains early Thurs & when arrived at hospital they put in 3 stints. 1 artery totally blocked & 2 more partially blocked. She was dng good Thurs evening & walking. Fri Stephanie got her MIL to come stay with kids while she drove up here. Things were good Fri & mom was gng to go home Sat. But abt 4:30am Sat her heart stopped! Several min B4 got it started. Stephanie called crying & beside herself so we threw our clothes on & went to the hospital. She & her step-dad were by themselves & in shock! Spent day & part of night at hospital & came back agn Sun. Things are bad. Her mom is very very critical & her heart is severely damaged! Her heart stopped agn on Sun so they put an external pacemaker on her. Agn Mon her heart stopped & late Mon they did another surgery & ran a line to put a pump in her heart. Stephanie hasn't left the hospital & her step-dad Bill only goes home to feed the dogs. I was out several hrs yesterday buying Stephanie some clothes clothes as she only brought one change thinking she'd be her a day & a half. In case you are wondering . . . Yes, Stephanie is my step-dtr & it's her real mom & Don's x who is so ill. But when you have children there is always a tie & you do what is best for your child. Bill, the step-dad, is a great guy & right now our hearts are breaking for Stephanie & Bill as they are still trying to process all this. They've bn told to take it one-day-at -a-time & she will have to have some type of heart "assist" because her's is too damaged. Was told this mrng she may be in hospital another 4 to 8 wks, then moved to a critical care facility for several months & when able to a rehab center for several months. It's gng to be a long hard road if she can make it thru the rest of this wk. I may not b eon GB much as we plan to go every day to make sure Bill & Stephanie eat & then trying to help out with the kids. This is a sobering event, Diane is 2 yrs younger than me . . . !! Sorry for such bad news, but that's why I'm absent & may not be here much. Please pray for Diane Sutton, Stephanie's mom, as she is very critical. Thank you prayer bears!
Place: Allen, TX Comments: Another great SOCite has passed away. Bob Burns (SOC'65) passed away approximately 1:50 p.m. today. You may remember that Bob gave his wonderful singing voice to so many of our choir concerts and musicals. He had undergone heart surgery recently and then came down with pneumonia. His condition kept deteriorating. He was a really good, likable man, and will be missed. |
