Wow, July is here already!
Well, as they say, “Summer is almost over”. It has been busy to start. I took my brother Sonny to the Doctor to set up a date for the colonoscope, as some of you already know. Had to call the coumadin clinic to let them know he was going off of medication for three days. They suggested I call his health care Doctor and find out if it is okay. They then called me to say I had to check with his Heart Doctor to see if he needs a Heprin Bridge. They have started using this on Coumadin patients who are going to have outpatient procedures. Anyway they had the wrong cardiologist name in his file. So I called his Cardiologist and they said they would let us know in the morning. Dr Hirsh was not in the office. In the meantime his regular doctor called and said that they contacted the cardiologist and he said it would be okay. Well his Cardiologist office called and wanted to know the name and fax number of the Doctor who was going to do this procedure as he doesn’t want him to have it if it isn’t absolutely necessary. So we were in limbo until we heard for sure on Tuesday. Don’t ever think, if you have more than one Doctor, that they know what the other is doing or knows. Well, it finally came together and we were informed he has the procedure on the 14th.
I received word from cousin Marcella that a 2nd cousin, Ceola Puckett had passed away due to an aneurism. She was 86 years old. I didn’t know her, as I said before after Mom moved us to the eastern part of town I didn’t get to know the extended side of the Sarver Family. My prayers and love go out to the family she left behind. She was very close to my Aunt Louise (AKA Sis) . Louise is the only surviving Aunt on my Dad’s side of the family. She will be 82 in September. Louise was named after Ceola’s mother. She is not taking her passing very well I am told.
On a lighter note we had a pleasant family holiday gathering we went to the the Dulle’s. Planned on staying for a couple of hours. Ended up staying around four. There were 1st,2nd,3rd,4th cousins there. Had a nice time and visit. My Cousin Charles (AKA Butch) was telling me he had test done . They found a spot in his lung. It is very small . So prayers are with you Butch. He has recovered from a lot of horrible things. He had an accident a couple years ago that was a miracle he pulled through. We all love you and sending those prayers for a blessing there isn’t any thing to heal . Prayers were answered. Butch let us know every thing was okay, no problems.
Love to All………Barbara
