Mike's Birthday






Since we have had Hospice Mike's pain level has been at a 3, pretty good for someone who has been living with a constant 7. Dr. Gray immediately changed Mike's meds to 100 mg Fentenayl and a Diladid for break through pain. He has done so much better. Also we have a cream made from Halidol and Adivan which really relieves his nausea and calms him. We have had three pretty good days. So I'm a happy lady today.


We had pictures this morning across the street with a back ground of sagebrush. Mike got really cold and tired so we came in. We took more pictures inside I sure hope there are some good ones. With all the cute grandkids they ought to be great. The photographer is the same lady that took Crissy's wedding pictures and Marrit's family pictures. Grandp Rex came down and so we had some taken with him.


We were so cold when we came back to the house I made hot chocolate. Around lunch time Lindy fixed chili and with a united effort of Michelle (pie crust) Crissy and I, pie filling we had a great lunch. Lindy and Scott, Michelle and Marrit took the kids out to the hospital to a craft fair and Christmas tree exhibit. Brooklynn and Jaymie had their faces painted. Jaymie a cute Christmas puppy and Brooklynn a mermaid. They saw Santa Claus and Marrit said Brooklynn ran up to Santa and said, "Hi, I'm a mermaid." She told Santa she wanted Repunzel and a Repunzel tower and two bad guys. What fun grandkids, we had a wonderful day. Michelle brought fixings for tacos and cooked dinner for everyone tonight. We have amazing children. We are so blessed to have such a wonderful family.



Thanks to everyone once again for thoughts and prayers. Tina called tonight. It is so great to have friends who call just to say they care.



Love to all, Mom
