Sister Dearest 12-4-08

Not good news today, Tonya and Billy had to take Trish back to emergency room last night in NLR with uncontrollable pain. I talked to Tonya & Trish at noon today and this was the update that I got. She is more comfortable with the meds they have given her, she is having a series of test done on her blood, also MRI on her back, chest xray, and a pretty good complete going over to try and find out what is causing all her pain. The last time she went to emergency room they just gave her a knock out shot and sent her home, but this time Tonya decided to make they try and find out what is causing the pain. This is going on 3 weeks (?) with her legs hurting, deep pain.

Keep her in your prayers. I hope to get some good news tomorrow after they run all the test.

Daddy is still feeling good, he has gotten his energy back so he is on the go. Art calls him the energized bunny since he got his pacemaker. He is worried about Trish, as we all are.

Wally is still putting up Christmas Lights outside, have I told you that Wally LOVES CHRISTMAS, he actually thinks he is SANTA!! I had this bright idea of decorating my BIG tree with all my stuffed Christmas Bears, I thought, that will be easy and will not take too long. Sure enough while Wally was outside I decorated the whole tree. I thought it looked pretty good, not my prettiest, but it sure didn't take long with the big bears. Wally came in and looked at it and told me right off that he hated the tree, it didn't look right. Well, I sat and pouted for awhile , he knew he had hurt my feelings, and I looked at the tree again, and yes - Wally was right, it didn't look very good. So I UNdecorated the tree, and started all over again and by the time I went to bed we had a beautiful tree again!! Wally was so very happy!! Daddy thinks we have just completely lost our minds of course. He was fusing and cussing the whole time about all the lights and all the decorations. We love Christmas and what it means. It is a time for friends, family, and celebration of our Jesus Christ.
