Oh Sweetie, this is exactly why it drives me crazy to be away from Starlite! The last I knew you were just going to take a little break for health reasons and I see now that you have been in the hospital and ready to leave. I am so glad that your thearapy is doing well. I am also glad that you have some help at home for your Mom and hopefully for yourself as well. My new mail system is not going well but I am at least able to get to Starlite this morning and that is a gigantic plus. Love and Hugs my friend, Lesa Lesa Gay Aspiring Angel

Tomorrow I will be leaving the hospital. I can walk with a brace (will probably require it a few months) and will take home a walker as well. I can only fully commend the rehab staff here for their wonderful efforts. Thank you all for the best wishes and prayers in the past three weeks. It is good to know so many of you thought of me and so many prayed for me. Maintenance is the key now to avoid another stroke. God bless each one of you. Pray for me as I resume light care-taker duties. We do have some help in place. Barbara Not the quill but its use. Scottish motto

Awesome news my sweet friend!! Keep on keeping on!!! When we hurt each other we should write it down in the sand, so the winds of forgiveness can make it go away for good. When we help each other we should chisel it in stone, lest we never forget the love of a friend.-Christian H. Godefroy

Sweet angel you are doing the right thing for yourself. Take as much time as you need. I know caregiving can give a body and mind much stress.... am there myself with now 2 grandchildren (Teens) living with me and still caring for my dad who is a stoke victim but lives back at his own home 8 blocks away. Close enough for me to get there if the need arises. You need not explain my dear. Just get rest when you can and know that many prays will be said for you and also your mom.Love~Jacie ~Jacie Stralko Duca~ JMDUCA@webtv.net
