Home

I'm told repairs to my apartment are almost finished, hopefully I'll be able to move back 1st of May.


I believe and lots say/or believe things happen for a reason. Some recent events makes this a realization of truth to me.


My granddaughter went into labor one evening and had I not been here and she had been alone with her 2 young sons (5 & 3) she'd had some problems. As it was I was able to get her to the hospital in time and bring boys home and stay with them. Had there not been a fire in my apartment I doubt I'd have been here. Although this granddaughter has spent a major protion of her life with me and we are very close, I might not have been here had it not been that I had to move out of my apt.


Last Tuesday her little girl was two weeks old and tried to stop breathing. After a battery of tests and 4 days in the hospital it has been determined she choked on spit-up, but those signs were not evident when we found her. After a nightmarish hour or so, and her trying to turn blue at least 4 times, and me thinking no matter what we do we are going to loose her - we got her to the hospital. Events like this make you want to live right around the corner from the local ER Room, definitely not 11 miles out of town as she does.


Momma and baby girl came home today and she is a very healthy baby and has gained a pound since birth. She has always been a very precious bundle of joy since her birth, only now she is more blessed and cherished.
