WEDNESDAY is ON!!!



Today is a GREAT DAY! We got the results of all the tests and all were CLEAR. That cleared me for surgery tomorrow! YES! The really great news is that all the tests were clear; that’s so good and we are so grateful for this gift of NO CANCER anywhere on the prowl.

I am scheduled to check in at the hospital at 9:30 a.m. That means they will get around to doing the surgery around noon. The surgery is scheduled to take 5 hours, so it’ll be after 6 before Don will get around to calling Trish and reporting so that she can post to the blog. Remember she has 6 kids and a husband at home, so she might not get it posted until bedtime, so don’t anyone be holding your breath! You can always call Don and get a report from him. His cell number is 405-371-5132. Remember he’ll be in the hospital with me, so he might not be able to answer your call when it comes; he may not even GET it. He’ll get to you as soon as he can if he sees he’s missed your call. Don’t bother to leave a message; I doubt if he’ll know how to retrieve it. He’ll do good to answer your calls left on the caller ID on the phone.

The picture on the blog today is a shot of the kitchen. I’m so proud of that little stool that Judy dug out of her garage! It’s PERFECT to get me up to the high shelves in the kitchen! Judy will be proud of how good it looks with a coat of paint! Notice Don’s birthday pie on the stove; it’s really home around here! We are so blessed to have this apartment.

God has sure taken care of us and we give Him profuse thanks for all our blessings! I know He will take care of us through the recovery period, too. I thank Him so much for blessing us so generously.

  2. Yeah! You figured out the comment process! What a sweet surprise to see your comment before I head off to surgery! Glad you like our 'spot;' it's so wonderful for us at this point in life!

  3. Hello Jo,
    You are probably at the hospital as I write this note. Thank you for the email letter; I appreciated your comments. Made a copy so sister can read it. Wish she would come over and see the pics. Your apt. looks very livable, and it is so great to have a place of your own while you await surgery as well as when you are able to come home to recuperate. I shall check the blog tonight, and in case Trish has not been able to post will then check tomorrow a.m. My prayers continue to be with you and all your family and especially on this day of your surgery. Much love to you all,
    Cousin Eb

  4. You are in G0D'HAND and GOD iS SO GOOD! Bless Don for keeping all in touch, especially Ruthie and Phil's and Tricia. Ruthie has been in touch every time she has heard from you and then I read the Wed. Post from you and then Tricia. You have to know how we are all Praying for you and we know God answers Prayers. Jane is like you, so Positive and she has said all week, Jo will be OK. But so good that you are all finished with this phase and hopefully all will be uphill from now on. Certainly you can see the end of the tunnel now. God Bless You and Phil and all your Family and Friends. We will certainly keep in touch and will keep on Praying for all of you! A special Thanks to Tricia for keeping us posted.
    We Love You Much
    Dot, Frazier and Janie
