End of August

There is some news from the Krew. Mr. Bill has his appointment for cornea transplant on Sept 17th. He is so ready for this. We'll be in Miami for two days due to the follow up the next morning to make sure all is well immediately. Miss P wants to go with us and and taken the two days off to do so.

Miss P has bigger news though. She just received her raise at Margaritaville, but also found out that her insurance will cover an ankle replacement. So she has been busy getting the proper scans/xrays that will be needed to evaluate her ankle. On October 2nd or 3rd she has an appointment with the doctor in Miami to do the meet and greet. She has been told over the phone already that the youngest candidate that has received what she will need is 36 and doing great. The office also told her that a 17 yr old from Canada has an appointment for the surgery next month though (I do not know the girls circumstances). She was told that her age is a major factor for rejection unless she is INactive, and also that she must not be too overweight or forget it, it will not last even if inactive. She is so excited she is peeing her pants. She will diet as much as possible without the starving diet to have a chance that way. Inactive is the problem I see. Keep Miss P down? Doubt it, but she will get all the poop on this in her meeting. These are just a few of the questions. Her ankle was crushed, that may be the biggest problem.

Anyway, we are all positive and excited for her. The doctor she is talking with is in Miami and works at Baptist/Doctors Hospital so that is a huge plus. His office thought she, as most of the patients that come to him are, was from out of the country. Coming from KW was a plus for her, so arrangements can be made more easily. Please everyone keep a positive outlook for her, anything negative will crush her spirit. I've never heard her so excited!!!!

So, moving on.... I'll be seeing the New England Krew next weekend. I guess I have to come up to do some witchy stuff to keep that weather from getting any worse!!! What the heck is going on up there. We've had fabulous weather this year, better than any I remember these past 30 yrs - KNOCK ON WOOD.

I'll be there Sat the 5th and leave the 12th. So, I'm excited as well. The next 30 days are jam packed.

Mr. L has been in school and all good. Mr. R comes and does his music stuff then off he goes again.

  1. That is such great news for Miss P!! Give her my very best wishes and let her know we're all pulling for her!

    Looking forward to seeing you, in just six days now! Weather is definitely improving, should be at least mid-seventies and sunny when you arrive. Rained all day yesterday and may have showers today, but we needed the rain. At least the humidity is gone, that was what was most miserable.
