Heartfelt Thanks

You folks are the best.   Mdme Padre and I are both so grateful for the outpouring of messages my last post received.   I have tried reading all your messages to her over the last two hospital visits and I still haven’t gotten to the bottom.   I can tell her sense of humour is strong because she keeps shaking her head and saying that I have a lot of weirdo friends - nice friends, but weirdos, she says,   Amen.

Kay’s condition has significantly improved this weekend and she says she feels stronger.  My hopes that she will be home soon, enthroned with cats.  Her oncologist says “Eat!  Eat!  You’re going to need it!”  I foresee a lot of pancake breakfasts.

There may have been some canoodling tonight.

Blessings to all of you.   Be well and love well.

  1. So glad to hear she's feeling better. Your last post brought me to tears but her strength and courage, and the humor you describe are inspiring. Life is hard but those traits, and the love of those we've chosen, help us get through it. My best wishes and hope are with you.

  2. LOL, of course we're weird, we are grown people that play with small metal figures but, that's part of what makes us charming....) Glad to hear she is feeling better!

  8. Good to hear. Never a doubt, of course. After keeping you in line for 30 years, anything else is easy!
    And please remember, the comments have all been from your weirdo friends on their best behaviour. Expect the tone and level of jokes to drop drastically once Mrs Padre is safely home and eating pancakes.

  11. Great news, Michael - in fact, the very best of all news possible.

  12. She looks, almost like herself in the photo; a human rather than a patchwork quilt of tubes. Been there, done that, not nice.

  16. I'm sorry not to have sent a message on your previous posts, but Sarah and I am glad to read of Kay's progress. Keep up the canoodling - it obviously does wonders!
