Knee

Kimberly wrote: I am okay. I have an infection in my knee (what you all suspected). I am on 2 antibiotics, one of which can turn my tears, among other things, red.  It should be improved within 48 hrs, if not I will have to do IV antibiotics. The other knee has tendonitis.
Love,
Kimberly

It is an infection in which large amounts of bacteria are present in the blood. In the "old" days it was commonly referred to as blood poisoning. Do just what the doctor said so that it doesn't get worse.

July 21st (Family party)

Hi Aunt Myrna, this is Nanci! How are you? I'm looking forward to seeing you in July!


I promised my mother I would send out evites to everyone and of course, time has gotten away from me!!!


I would like to ask a couple favors of you. I have the evite pretty much ready to go but I still need Uncle Don's email and Aunt Eva and Cousin Jim's email. Do you have thoses and if so, would you please forward them to me? Oh, and Linda and Michael's.


Second favor, I will get these out this week but would you please email your family and remind them we are doing this party at the same place on Saturday, July 21st! and to mark their calendars!!! We are going to make this one the best party ever! I'm looking into renting a jolly jump for the kids. I have to check with the church re liability issues.


I can't wait to see you and the family! I do hope all is well with you guys. Please give Uncle Tim my love and let him know I have him in my prayers regarding his upcoming surgery.


Have a wonderful week and thanks in advance for your assistance!


xoxo

Mom, I see Dad's cousin Tammie all of the time in Shopko here. She keeps wanting to have a get together of some sort. She has invited me to a few of her concerts but I have not been able to go. She has recently tried to set up a date when we could go to dinner, but I asked her to wait until we see how Dad's surgery goes. She really wants to connect with her extended family for many reasons. I wonder if it would be ok with Auntie if I invited her to the Trauntvein Christmas Party in July. I know she would be thrilled. Let me know what you think.
