September 9, 2009 Well, life continues to march along with plenty of bumps. The metal bar supporting my son's pectus repair shifted it's position requiring out-patient surgery to remove it. The bones in his chest will remain unstable for the next couple of months. His chest has already sunk a little. Fortunately, our school district has a Home Bound service which means a teacher will come to our home for his classes. So, for the next 8 weeks, I will have my 11 year old home with me. Ahhhhh.....Life!
July 18, 2009 On Thursday July 16, my 11 year old son is home from Childrens Hospital from having heart surgery & pectus repair (for a sunken chest) June 22 and getting over complications of it! YeS! Praise God!!!!

I also don't like my left foot pinkie toe...well it's not really the toe, it's the nail. I've always had a really weird/deformed nail on that toe. I've never gotten a pedicure because of it!
April, I can't thank you enough for your support at the visitation and the funeral for my mom. What a sweet act of kindness it was for you to hold my hand. Thank you. {{hugs}} blessings, Gypsy
Thankyou so much for being there for Gypsy!
That is so sweet of you to go to the funeral home for Gypsy! You are one very awesome gal!
You should win a prize for your "mostly dead" comment. Classic! You are one funny lady. Thanks for the laugh this morning. :-)
Thank you for letting me know about John. I had to give you this...
Saying a prayer that your son recovers quickly and that the pain goes away swiftly! Big hugs to you and your son!
Can't believe you live so close to me! I'm in Carbondale, Illinois!
I hope everything goes well for your son. Your family is in my thoughts.
blessings, Gypsy
