Today the sun is shinning in Wichita and the wind is down. Yesterday was another day of improvements. Danna went to Lab and Clinic, numbers continue to be excellent. She quit taking one med, decreased a couple of others and increased another. She has a fulltime job just keeping up with her drug regimen. We went to Dr. Smith's office and he removed her port which was put in for dialysis. That was good. She was worn out and rested the rest of the day.

Deanna spent the day getting more movement and getting on top of her headache. I it is getting better, just seems to be taking a long time. She is healing and getting more limber each day. Both girls walk around the yard at the apartment and today I hope we can go to the park across Webb Road. I told them I would drop them off and pick them up later, Danna looked at Deanna and said, "Don't you just feel the Love?". Humor has been our best medicine.

John and the boys called and they are in Ohio and back in school, work and etc. Seems that Tuck (their dog) is "depressed" without his friend Maddie. I'm sure John will see to him as well as he has the rest of his family in Deanna's absence.

Yesterday I started a puzzle. See, we really are making progress. Thanks for the thoughtful gift of puzzles. The girls stop by the table to put in a piece on their way through the room, but sitting in the chair is still not comfortable. When a piece falls to the floor I am picking it up, they are not up to that, but that day will come, maybe today. I no longer am needed to help them get out of the recliners, progress, progress.

This time together is precious for me. Allie said, "Grandma, you stay as long as you want, if my daughters needed me, I would stay." She has such a good heart. Dylan and Allie are back in school and staying with their grandparents in Deerfield. They have crazy middle school schedules and we really appreciate the help.

I will sign off for now. Soon the girls will be writing. All is well here in Wichita. God Bless, Norma
