Thursday- DWM family update

A week from today, Blogvile's own World's Greatest Quilter arrives for the weekend!  She and WHN will be attending a two day machine embroidery seminar and keeping the DWM and Dad sane!  


Last night we had to take Dad to the ER- he woke with a very rapid heartbeat and rapidly rising blood pressure- We had to stay in the car (NO FAIR) while WHN dealt with the intake people and all the other stuffs.  Dad is ok though- his thyroid is a bit wonky, and he was released and he saw his regular doctor later this morning.  He has a bad sinus infection and goes back in a month to have his thyroid re tested.  Our doctor thinks the thyroid is acting up due to the stress of being unemployed for so long and Ginger's death last week was the last straw.  He is busy napping right now, with two nurses waiting on him paw and paw- the beautiful Anna Rose and Tasha!  Last night after we finally got home, Dad was snoring and Anna Rose joined in on the fun, just like Ginger did!  He admitted to WHN that he had been trying to be strong for her so that she could lean on him, and she yelled at him and told him to start leaning on her!  Parents!  What would we do without them?  


WHN would like to thank everyone in BLogville again for all of their kind words, cards and emails during this past week.  Yesterday was the first day that she could look at Ginger's photo on the blog without crying or breaking down and she could also start talking about her without crying.

OMD OMD Miss Agnes and Mr. Geoff, I am so very much sorry about the emergency room visit. I am glad that the PATIENT is resting with TWO very good nurses.

I know that your "company" is gonna have a BLAST with all of you.

OMG! So sorry to hear Geoff is not well. I hope my upcoming visit isn't stressing Geoff out any. I would hate to be adding to any anxiety he's been having. I know how being unemployed can have that effect on you and then losing Ginger so suddenly sure wasn't good either.

I am excited for my visit and I'm also glad to hear Geoff and Anna Rose snore so I won't be the only one in the house doing it! Get your ear plugs ready!

See you in 1 WEEK!!!!
