Update on My Sister.....

I don't usually post personal stuff here, but those of you who know me, know I have a younger sister who has been very sick.  She is 4 years younger than me and her health has been a total train wreck!  She has been in the hospital with heart, lungs, and kidney problems; on top of diabetes.  Heart functioning at 30% and kidneys shut down, lungs filling with fluids, blood sugar around 500.    We finally got her transferred to Knoxville to a bigger hospital and she is improving every day.  Her kidneys are doing their thing again but somewhat diminished and heart is about the same.  But there is a light at the end of the tunnel!  She now has specialists caring for her and they are beginning to say HOME to her!  For all of you who kept us in your prayers.....thank you!  You gave me much needed moral support when I needed it!  This is going to be an on-going problem, however, I think we bought some time this time.  Again, thank you for your kindness!

Oh my gosh! I will keep your sister in my thoughts and send all my positive energy her way. It sounds very encouraging though--keep us updated!
