Starting a Blog for Minnesota Trip

Today is Sunday 6-22-08 at 5:30 and I am setting up this blog to help keep everyone in the loop on the status of my mom's health and the trip to Minnesota. At this point it looks like Connie, Creig, Vicki and Courtney are going.

What the tests indicate so far is that Connie has a problem with her parathyroid. Here is a link to a site that explains what this is and what the doctors do to treat the problem. Here is the link. The trip was planned to Minnesota after we found out there was a 3-4 month wait to have the surgery done in state. The good news is that patients recover very well after surgery, so we are all optimistic. 

We will keep you updated with photos and entries...

talk with you soon.

Thanks Mike for getting this started this will make it much easier on all of us to keep everyone informed.
Just to let everyone know that we plan to leave tomorrow morning around 5:00am. We planned a days travel and Mom sees her doctors for testing first thing on Wednesday. We should have some news by late afternoon. So check back with us then. Take care and keep Mom in your thoughts and prayers. Vicki

Hey family - my thoughts and prayers are with all of you. Aunt Connie was a pillar of strength for me during my diagnosis, surgery and recovery and I hope I can be that for you. If there is anything any of you need let me know.

Love you all,
Kym

Mama called tonight with the address to this page. She did a good job. Jim and I were in Ludington about one, I wonder if we passed. We are glad all of you are there, its a perfect place to be so I hear, if you need to be. Our prayers are with you all.
