The kids and I got back late last night. What a trip. It didn't turn out anything like we had planned. Friday night my mom ended up in the hospital and missed the whole anniversary celebration party. We didn't get the family picture or get to see New York or anything.
The good news, they thought she had a heart attack but they ruled it out after exhaustive testing. They determined she has a (huge) hiatal hernia. She knew she had it, but I guess its the largest they have ever seen. She will need to be followed on it as it needs to be surgically repaired. They believe a piece of food lodged in the hernia causing "heart attack" like symptoms.
Its good to be home in my own bed. I missed the family that didn't come.
Lewis is still reeling from our departure, he said it sank in that James is leaving. I guess since James was with me, I just haven't gotten to that realization yet. After all, I have spent his whole life raising him to do just this. How bad can it be?
Hope you all are fine. Loved the pics of Nathan and his hearing aids.
Jan, I hope you and Carleton are continuing to improve. Anything new with the knee?
Anyone getting together for Easter? James would like to come see the Palmdale people one more time if he can and anyone who just happens to be there that day (Easter). Let us know.

Glad you guys are back safe. So sorry about your Mother. Good they know what it is and that it can be taken care of. We are involved in a family dinner here with Derrick's side for Easter. It would be good to see james one more time. Sorry we will have to miss that. We are very glad we made it to Fontana for the weekend. That was such a nice time to be with family.
