Barry, I am so sorry Marlene is having to go through this. How terrible for her. I know everyone is grateful that you're taking care of the dogs and holding down the fort. I will continue to keep Marlene and the family in my thoughts and prayers.

Mom and I went to see Marlene after church this morning.She looks good,resting,eyes were closed,she talked to us.They have had her up walking,have let her drink diet pop,no solid food,been a week,still on an IV.Has had hallucinations due to the Morphine they give her for pain.No trouble with her bowels.Larry was the with his sister and her husband when we came,they left soon after we came.Gave her a kiss on the hand so did Mom,hard the other way with an IV in her nose.

I'm glad to hear you and Mom got to see her, Barry. It sounds like she's doing ok but these things are never pleasant. I will still keep her and all of you in my thoughts and prayers. {{{{{MARLENE}}}}}

Mom said Marlene had some food,had Cream of Chicken soup,had some Butterscotch pudding or might have been Jello.I am kind of busy running mom up and bringing her back,only a couple of minutes there and looking after Fritz and Taffy.She had been out walking again and was sitting in a chair,looking really good.
