I would like to thank you all for your cards, your gifts of food, and your many expressions of care and concern. We do feel loved!

Mother was talkative, even cheerful, earlier this morning but is groggy now. Due to her chronic leukemia, her blood counts are low today, and her doctor has ordered a blood transfusion for the afternoon. Increasing her counts should provide more strength and energy.
