The cookout went very well, although watching everyone else eat kind of sucked! Having my brother here is great, he has such a calming affect on me and my girls just adore him. He's like the guy that men and women all love.

I have started a Carepage to keep everyone updated for when I'm in the hospital and can't post here. My daughters will post here and on the carepage. The care page is www.carepages.com and the name of my page is minnieandfamily.

I feel pretty good tonight, can't sleep as usual but might break down and take the anti-anxiety pill that puts me in zombie mode for about 12 hours!

Love to all,
Minnie
