Freda Weir is recovering from shoulder surgery. Freda hasn’t started therapy yet. She and Frank are still cleaning up limbs and trees over there, too.
Sunday afternoon, daughter Donna came up from Grenada and checked on us as well as our granddaughter Francesca and Brad Holliday. David and I rested after their visit and then we drove up the road to visit Waylon and Holly Dukes and grandbabies, Haven Rose and Waylon Jr. It had been almost a month since I had seen them. Either I had been sick or they had. Holly had four wisdom teeth cut out Thursday.
Our friend Martha Box lost her superwoman cape for a few days last week. Martha said Dr. Roberts and his nurses, along with the help of her children and grandchildren, have got her up and going. She’s not moving quite as fast as she would like to, but give her a few more days and that superwoman cape will be flying high again. Giving God all the praise and glory!
