Hi all: Well, Miss Lily was up bright and early. She is eating a little but not enough to sustain life (in my opinion) However, she is drinking milk and lots of coffee laced with sugar and cream. She told me today that she wasn't ready to "leave" just yet.

I told her she needed to eat then.....So, very grudgingly she ate one bite of meat, but did eat all of her mashed potatoes and gravy.

When I left today, she was back in bed for her afternoon nap. She really hates to stay in bed and puts up a fight when her nurses even suggest she needs to lay down. We made it through another day and we will see what tomorrow brings. Again, thank you all for your prayers.....

I came home at 2:00 p.m. and started my yard work. I couldn't get my mower started! I was using my weed eater and trying to figure out what to do to get the dang mower going when I remembered what Larry would have done. He would have pulled the spark plug and cleaned it with the electric wire brush....so, that's what I did and SCHAZZAM! it started. Four hours later I am upstairs writing to you all and about to get into the shower. All I did today was mow - no hedge trimming or brush cutting - it really seems like things are budding out slower this year. I am getting a brief reprieve :-)

Scott Crossfield has passed.

He was a childhood hero.

God bless them men that fly and fight. Especially the crazy ones that push the envelope.

How encouraging that Miss Lily is eating a little bit and drinking more.

And how wonderful that Larry helped you through another situation.

You are one spunkly lady and have my admiration and my love. (((((Bev)))))

Bev, thank you for the update on Miss Lily. I'm glad to hear she's not ready to "leave" just yet.

Prayers continue for both of you!
