Kathy:

Looks like you might be feeling poorly. Hey give me a shout out immediately when you can. I am concerned for you and now that I know I am thinking of you and praying for a pull through.

Hi Kathy,

I am so happy that you are confident that you will have a full recovery. I bet you are going to have a lot of colorful stories to share when you get back on Tu regulary. Have a good Christmas, 13 is my lucky number, so a very Happy New Year too.

I was snoozing. Went for my first and only shopping spree for the holidays. It wasn't crowded at the big mall at 4 on Christmas Eve. We did not have to wait in line at any cash register, and everything was on sale. I finally got a digital camera for my gift, dirt cheap, and the last camera in the store, not just of that model, the last one of all!

We accidentally parked on the wrong side of the mall, so had to walk inside all the way to the opposite end. Then we forgot completely where we parked the car, and walked all the way around the whole place in the rain with all our packages before we finally found it. It was good though, first time I walked in the fresh air for a long time!

It did snow a bit and it was pretty to see it in the air, but mostly rain and then a bit of sun. The coldest place in the house is my room. Thank goodness I also got slippers for Christmas. Take care, feel better soon or else! Lots.

Merry Christmas Kathy! we got a little snow, very pretty. saw your comment to Reed, you sound good. the caroling sounds like a hoot, hope you have a nice book for reading by the fire. we are making ourselves a little turkey today and just taking it easy. glad we stayed home.

Kathy, hope you are keeping your spirits up and feeling better every day. You are in my thoughts and prayers. I was in the hospital once over Christmas and it's not terrible, they do try to make it a bit special. We decided to cancel our plans to go into NYC over Christmas, so we'll be home. the weather looks like it might be acting up, and the locals are calling for a little of the white stuff. better we stay home and put an extra log on the fire and watch "It's a wonderful Life". HUGS!!

My dear Kathy. I cannot tell you how I and the other residents of Reedsville were so happy to hear from you. Did they ever find out what the problem happened to be. Rehab is no place to be for Christmas but it is better to be there and get yourself built up and str and stronfer before you go home. I cannot tell you just how much everyone missed you. I am all set for the big day. The house looks New England as all my decorations came from Lexington. I collected things Christmas for years. Rake good care. Get stronger so you can go home. Miss you. HUGS,Reed

KATHY....dear Kathy!!! So GREAT to hear from you. Good God...BG over 500....what the heck are they doing!! Hide it under the mattress, yes...or in the toilet tank lol. Sheesh!
Do they know what caused all this??
Praying for your speedy recovery. Nothing like hanging out by the water cooler as Bikette calls it (Reed's page)...I think of it as the homestead!!
We love you, and can hardly wait for you to get back on your feet and be a trouble maker again (not!!)....just hurry up and get well dang it!
Luv and baskets of hugs....linda ♥

Kathy, thinking of you, yes take your insulin! brother, someone needs to let them know you know your diabetes way better than they do. but you must be so tired and weak. we are all praying for your complete recovery, no need to respond to me, I'll keep up with you in Reedsville.

So happy to hear news from you via Reed, Kathy!!!! LOTS OF HUGS, amiga!

Hi Kathy,

I was so happy to hear from you on Reed's page! Yes, yes, take your own insulin! I had highs all the time I was in the hospital. The last time I got wise and took my fast acting insulin pen. I was not allowed out of bed because they were afraid I would fall, balance issues too. I took off my IV and snuck into the bathroom every four hours to take my glucose readings and make corrections with my Novolog. Without that I was in the 500s too, With my Novolog pen for boluses and corrections, perfection. I am so excited to hear from you again, but hope that you stay as long as necessary to get feeling better. We love you dearly and don't feel alone on Christmas because all our hearts are with you. Have a wonderful Christmas. Lots.

Hi Kathy! My goodness, what happened? Seventeen days in the hospital, that is serious. They don't even keep heart attacks in the hospital that long! What was wrong, did they ever say? I bet you have lost weight and are weak. I sure hope that they are taking great care of you and that you feel better really soon.
What's up for Christmas? Maybe we can Skye when you feel better and exchange details about our ailments! When I was in the hospital they had an Interent room. Feel Better. Lots

Hi Kathy. I read that you're in rehab; I hope you are getting better rapidly. I know it's a tough time to be "under the weather". I'm hoping for a good Christmas and a very, very Happy New Year for you!

Dear Kathy. It was so great to hear from you You had us all worried. Many Prayers went up for you. Cards were sent. I hope the hospital forwards them to you. Rehab will be good for you it will get you stronger and be better than being home alone. All of Reedsville is praying for you. A BIG HUG. Reed
