Morning

[We_Destiny 1]

Sorry to hear of you grandmothers condition. Just to let you know that my grandfather had a stroke at the age of 97 and the hospital recommeded him for physical therapy. He was never able to walk again on his on, but, he was able to stand and give assistance when they moved him around. So, it is possible for an elderly patient to receive rehab, there goal is usually not full recovery of the limbs but to continue with a better quality of life.

My prayers to you and your family.

I was also very ill this weekend with a lovely stomach virus.

I received some more bad news about my Grandmother, the cancer has riddled her body, she was sitting down last night and her femur bone (that is the large bone located in your thigh) snapped as she was sitting. She is in the hospital, she has told my mothers cousin that she does not want any of us to come, not me, not my sister, not my mum, not anyone. She is going to have surgery to stabilize her leg with a rod and some pins, she is talking about rehab for her leg, I do not see that as a reality, she is 88 years old, she has hidden this cancer for quite sometime.

My Uncle is in Iraq, he does not know yet, my mum, has been having trouble getting a hold of him.

My mum says she wants to die alone. My husband keeps asking why we arent going up to see her.

Mrs. J! I hope you feel better. How long does morning sickness usually last?

[Enlighten one :) 5]

Varies really, but I didn't have much with my son. Hard to be at work when you just want to cuddle with a blanky on the couch.

Did you take your malaria prep before leaving? Also, did you take precautions with the way your food is prepared?

Yes I did take a malaria pill before coming and one every day since. A Liberian woman friend of my husband is cooking for us. I am not real sure what the stomach ache was from, but praise God it is over!!

I have just 3 more full days here before I go home I won't be able to return until his interview, I pray it will be soon.
