Hi Everyone,

I guess the first thing I need to do is apologize for this letter being so late. I have been having so much fun taking tests that I didn’t seem to get around to it. But I think it would have to be a cold day in h...... before I have any more tests.

The tests showed that my heart valve was not in serious enough condition to require surgery. They did find that I am enamic, but they cannot find where the blood is coming from. So they put me on iron(one more pill to my collection) . The colonoscopy was just fine, no blood but the good news was that there wasn’t any cancer. Of course they aren’t sure where my fatigue and such things are coming from.BOY, THAT ‘S ENOUGH OF THIS GRIPING. Jennie was my escort through all of this and she took notes(does that surprise anyone) It’s good she did because I wouldn’t remember everything or maybe anything.

About the weather here---It has been fall one day then winter the next. They have finally said that the drought is over. I hope that now they don’t start talking about floods.

I wish that I had more news but they say that “No news is good news”.
