NOBODY IS MORE SURPRISED THAN US! GKTW alumni return! 10/21 MOVING DAY!!

[McDuck]

So glad you checked in, Judy!!! Rachel looks amazing in the photo, so sophisticated! Glad she is improving and prayers continue!

So thrilled to hear Lisa is back to herself and that both girls have performed so well!

I am sorry my response is so short, I am on my phone at my parents and keeping everything straight and "typing are difficult.

Much love and prayers and.... two weeks??? Eeep!!! Hope you all have loads of fun!!!!

Well Judy, where might I ask is a picture of little Miss Giggles? We all want to see her in a healthier state too And you are just downright cruel to those of us that read this thread, telling us you have something to tell but then not telling............you will bust soon if you don't spill the beans

 

[KatMark]

Yes, Judy, Brenda and I hugged a number of times (we were fortunate to have more than one meet) and we thought of you when we did. I sent you the title of my TR in a PM.

Rachel looks wonderful and I'm glad she is doing better.

 

[mickeystoontown]

Wow! Lisa looks amazing on stage! Tell her that she's one fine lookin' rocking chick.

I'm so happy to hear that Lisa was bubbly and happy during the performance.

Come on woman! Don't keep us in suspense. Spill the beans!

 

[happybelle]

Rachel is gorgeous. I am glad she was able to perform, but very sorry she is still having problems. Music is a good release for her. I hope Lisa is better. Praying for all of the health/money needs.

 

[courtneybelle]

I LOVE that picture of Rachel! Such a rock star, she looks fabulous. So happy to hear Lisa is doing better as well! I am so excited that your trip is coming up. I've said it before but you all deserve some relaxation!!

School is super busy, but I have the Disboards app on my phone so I will keep checking in!

 

[thebeesknees]

Judy, just popping in to say I am thinking of you and hope your family is having a great day! Just two weeks until your trip? Eeeek! I'm so excited for you!

I had the first MOPS session of the year this morning. The coordinators should have cut off registration awhile ago but didn't until yesterday and we had 36 3-year-olds show up for my room (yes, one room!) We couldn't pull teachers from other rooms because they were also swamped (30 4-5 year olds, 30 2-year-olds, etc). It was nutso! I really hope the coordinator can round up some more teachers before next week. Otherwise, I think the existing teachers are going to go on strike!! I felt so bad for my boss (MOPS worker coordinator) who had no idea how many kids to expect, how many teachers she needed, and is sick on top if it all. Plus, she had a bunch of teachers back out at the last minute this weekend, so she was super stressed.

Hope everyone has a nice day. I SHOULD be cleaning my house, but I might just go take a power nap!

 

[Disney9.9.10]

I'm glad that you are seeing some improvement in the girls! Seeing your child go through things like that must be so scary. Rachel looks so great on stage and I love how frequently you get to watch them perform

 

[homeschoolmomof4]

So happy to hear that Rachel is doing better!! That's fantastic! She looks so grown up in her picture. It's amazing how quickly they go from little girls to young women. <sigh> My "little girl" went off to college a few weeks ago...

Yay for Lisa's medication change!! I'm so glad she's got her "sass" back!

I can't believe you only have 2 weeks until your trip! I'm so excited for you all! Praying you have the time and energy to get everything done that you need to get done before your trip. With your schedule, I'm sure it's not going to be easy!

 

[reelmom]

Wow! Is that the same Rachel? She looks so much older and so beautiful. Glad she is feeling a little better. I pray she continues to heal. Glad to hear Lisa is getting back to herself also. 2 weeks!!!! So close yet so far.

Thank you for all of the kind messages and gentle teasing about my keeping you guessing about my news. Just a little bit longer, I promise. Please feel free to start the guessing game about what my news is if you so desire. Gail, you can't play since you know. I was hoping to talk to you Sunday, maybe you can find time to call before your company arrives.

Lisa has another sinus infection and her INR (coumadiin level) is too low. She STILL feels better than she did all summer on that wicked seizure medicine. We started the antibiotics yesterday, hopefully we caught it in time to help her feel better quickly.

Rachel is still taking it easy and basking in the reviews from her Saturday show. She looked amazing and there are pics of her that I see my face from long ago (NOT my hair or body though).

I have something brewing, taking vitamins, etc to try and knock it out and trying to NOT share it with everybody. I want/need everybody WELL!

One of our dear friends who supports us here has a crisis in their family. PLEASE pray for them, I will let them share if they choose.

I would like to know if anyone who reads here will be in the Orlando area September 27?

Okay, medicine time for my brood, more later.

 

[pwdebbie]

Two updates since my last visit here. Rachel is beautiful! She looks so much older than her years. It is wonderful to hear that both Rachel and Lisa are progressing. Praying for Lisa to respond well to the antibiotics.

Thank you for the detailed explanation of Lisa's history. I have heard wonderful things about CHOP and I am sure you are in good hands there.

I continue to pray for your whole family, especially since your trip is getting closer.

Hmm... I have no idea what you might be hiding!! But I'm hoping it's Disney related!!!

Prayers that all of you will feel good for your trip and beyond!!!

Oh and prayers for your friend and their struggles too!!

Hugs,

Thank you for the prayers for my dad and family. He really wasn't doing well at all and last night and today he seems to have taken a turn for the better. He is acting more like himself and they were able to take him off the machine that was forcing air in his lungs and just put him on on oxygen mask for a few hours. They are going to keep alternating and hopefully get him off the other machine completely.

Judy I hope the kids don't get whatever it is that you have I know that is the last thing that you want. I know you all are getting so excited for your trip and I hope that the girls continue to get better between now and then. I will say a prayer for your friend that needs it.

Thoughts and prayers to everyone that needs them.

Marilyn

Judy, Rachel looked beautiful in that picture. Im so glad she was well enough to perform. Glad Lisa seems to be getting back to her giggly self. Sending lots of prayers that you and Lisa both feel better soon and nobody else gets it. Of course I cant wait to read your news however you choose to share it. I too have some news and a new cast member for our many adventures that I hope to share over on my ptr soon.

 

[scdak]

Judy - I am guessing another performance for the girls somewhere in Orlando?
But then again, I would rather the surprise be tickets to at least one Disney park! Although, SeaWorld would be great too

 

[happybelle]

I hope you and Lisa get well quickly. My guess is the Food and Wine Festival at Epcot. It starts on the 27th and you are planning some DIS meets.

 

[ladylyons]

Good morning! I hope everyone has a great day today.

Judy, we will definitely be here during your trip. JJ had very nasty full body tics Thurs evening and all day yesterday. There's no way we can make the drive north. I hope that Rachel and Lisa are doing better this weekend and that no news means good news.

My dad is in a critical care vascular unit. He did have a stroke (there's a small amount of new blood on his brain) and now he is having seizures. He was to be discharge yesterday, but his leg gave out on him while he was brushing his teeth. So they ended up doing a 24 VEEG this weekend. My mom is frazzled. My dad thinks everyone is making a big fuss over nothing. He doesn't understand fully what's going on. He thinks he is just fatiqued and needs rest to get his strength back.

Sorry to hear about your dad!! Continued prayers for your family. I'm sorry you had to cancel your trip. I was hoping for the best for JJ that the tics had subsided enough that you could.


Judy - Rachel looks amazing!! I'm glad to hear that she's on the mend!! Same for Lisa! I hope she gets well quickly!

Sorry I haven't been posting but I've been busy planning James and Sarah's birthday party which happened on Sunday!! I can't believe my princess turned 5 on Sunday and my baby turns 3 on Tuesday!! I'll post some pictures once I have an opportunity too. We had Jeremy's 1st Cub Scout meeting tonight and he looked so grown up!! Now I have Sarah's Girl Scout Information night on Wednesday. This week can not be over fast enough! We also had an ultrasound on Friday and the baby decided not to cooperate!! Not only did we not find out what it was but I had to go back in today!! This time we got a little bit more cooperation (got all the measurements we missed) and we found out we're having another little BOY!!!! Part of me is very relieved that it's another boy but kind of sad to not be getting another little princess. My biggest relief though is that everything looks great and as long as everything continues to go well we will be welcoming a healthy baby to the family in January!!

 

[Restrasz]

Your trip is coming so quickly! I SO hope you have a wonderful,stress free, healthy trip! Prayers for all.... Ruth

Hi Judy, I tried calling you a couple of times on Sunday and the phone was busy. I'll try again this morning but will need to leave to go to shopping and to the airport around 10 am my time. If I don't call today, then I'll try again maybe on Sunday? Billy hasn't had time to do anything with the videos and pictures yet of the fiesta. We've both been busy doing last minute chores. Gave Tiffy her bath last night, cleaned the floors, and doing laundry. It rained this morning and the news says rain for the next couple of days. We need all the rain we can get here. At least I don't have to water the garden this morning!

Praying that you are feeling better this morning along with Lisa and Rachel! You all need to be as healthy as you each can be so you can enjoy your vacation time. Hope you have all your days planned out with lots of fun and time to relax too!

Praying for your friend and all the needs here!
