Here's Granny with me when I was in Florida just before Mother's Day this past April. The weather was perfect and we had a great time.

Update #1 - Wednesday, August 19, 2009 - Diane just called me and said that Mother got out of surgery about 15 minutes ago (a little before 9:30 Florida time). Everything went well. They had to take out a little more bone because of the arthritis. They straightened out her leg which is one of the questions she did ask the doctor. "Will my leg be straight." And now it is.

We're hoping that she'll be sent to the rehab facility on Red Bug Road called Tuskawilla Nursing and Rehab Center (something like that). She should be in the hospital (South Seminole Hospital in Longwood) until Saturday.

Whew.........thank God. Now, we just have to get through the rehab and she can start walking again.

I just got a call from Fred who is the caretaker at the cemetery. They're going to move Andrew and Jarrett's evergreens today. They've gotten too big. It was either that or cut them down. After they get them situated, they're going to put small plaques next to each tree in memory of each boy. So, that's where I'm headed now. talk to you later. bye, djb
