TomKat (Tom Cruise/Katie Holmes) had their love child, a daughter, this week. Have NOT heard if he actually did eat the placenta, like he said he would ( I do hope he was kidding)

My question is: Did Katie make any noise during the delivery? (I have a shallow mind.)

Great opening, I especially liked the cartoon about legal and illegal immigration, so true.

My email to family and friends:

Saturday morning...... The Care Center called at 0400 and said everything is slowing down and I might want to come up.

I threw clothes on and went up there to find my little Mom snoring softly - perfectly at peace. Her respirations are normal (12) her heart rate 94 and her O2 saturation is 90. Dr. Rinehart came in and just shook his head and said "Well Bev, she looks pretty good". I am home now to walk Oscar, get some decent clothes on, comb my hair, etc. I am on my way back to the CC.

Oh yes, I forgot to tell you all one thing about yesterday. I told you she was bright and cheery and up for coffee....well, I forgot to tell you that she also played Bingo! What ever transpired to cause her to lose viability in the L lung, happened quickly. She now has breath tones in that lung.

Please continue to keep us in your prayers, we do feel them. With love, B

Saturday afternoon late.... Hi: She is exactly the same as she was this morning - her O2 sats are the same, heart rate and respirations too. She is sleeping peacefully - no distress at all. They will call me if there is a change, otherwise, I will not go back until early in the morning. I must admit that I am exhausted from lack of sleep.

There is something remarkable about her appearance! Her wrinkles are almost all gone and she has a serenity about her that is awe inspiring. There isn't edema - she is just that totally relaxed. I feel she is already in the Lord's hands. Please continue praying for us.

I went to Manzanita earlier, but not early enough, gas had gone up 10 cents a gallon the hour before. We are still cheaper here than in Tillamook - $2.85 a gallon. $3.09 in Tillamook. Now we will start seeing a sharp rise in food prices. We are being robbed by someone!!!! Love B

Hi,
I saw The Sentinel today, and I was disappointed that the bad guys weren't Muslims...
