Judy (Effie) made several phone calls trying to reach Lyn, Howie or Cait. Cait returned her call and gave the following information about Lyn:

She said her mom is back in the hospital in Chatham. However, they expect that she will be transferred to the hospital in London; this city has excellent teaching hospitals.

Cait said her mom is doing better and should be out of the hospital the first week of August.

Judy . . . a milllion thanks for checking on our sister!! Cait . . . thanks for getting back to Judy . . . we do worry about each other.

Lyn . . . I'm so glad that you are being well cared for. I hope your docs don't release you before you are well enough to be home.

Judy and I wanted to start this topic to ask for prayers for Lyn's recovery and comfort and to update everyone who has been concerned about you.

Thank you Father for watching over our dear sister Lyn. Please continue to bless Lyn, Cait and Howie, and Lyn's parents who are dealing with her mom's Alzheimers. Father I pray that other family members and friends have been convicted to help care for Lyn's mom so that her dad and Lyn can be freed from the worry and stress that comes from too few caregivers. In Jesus' precious name . . . Amen.

Hugs, Prayers and Blessing!

.....Just to let all know that we havent been able to let yous know how Lyn is ,as our modem is totalled but getting a new one this Monday.......Lyn has been in intensive care and then went to critical care for a week but is being transfeered to London where they do know more about the pyoderma and all the complications that go along with it .I am so happy that she has people that truly care about her and I will let her know that you are all thinking about her and praying for her .She has been quite upset as she feels she has let alot of you down by not being here for you all,I try to tell her that you all realize that she to is sick and can only do so much but you know her lol....You know she is sick when she doesnt even grip about having no cigarettes the last while and she is staying pretty drugged up ,basically so that she cant get out of bed .Her sores have never been this bad and out of control but SHE IS getting better each day and she does miss and worry about all of you .Thanks again and I will try to use my nieces computer more often to keep yous updated on her ,until ours is fixed.As was already said she is supposed to be home by the first of the month , the one specialist seeing and treating her is actually writing an article with pictures about her sores as he has never seen a case as severe as this before .Thanks to you all again for your love care and concern and I will be letting her know I finally was able to post about this for her ....We all appreciate your support thru this trying time ....Howie ,Cait Rick and of course Lyn .Take care and hope you are doing well ....

Howie!! you are such a dear to keep us posted!! I copied your message from the Chrohns forum and pasted it in the Forum Moderators board and the Anxiety board.

So glad Lyn has such a loving family taking care of her!!! Give her a big hug from Rosie!!

Prayers, hugs, and Blessings!

Rosie , Lyn said to give you her love and that she hopes you are doing well,thanks for posting in the mod forum for her as she has been worried sick that she has not been able to let Peter know whats going on,she was crying alligator tears when reading the posts from all of yous tonight when I saw her and i really think it gave her some major inner strenghth to get her self back together and get home to us and all of you . I am so happy she has friends like you and judy as well as all the others to help her thru this time .It is certainly not a hardship to love her and support her all the way as she is a warm and loving woman that cares about her family here and her HW family,I am truly blessed to have her as my friend ,soulmate and wife and would not trade one minute of out of our lives together ....she really misses you all so much and wants to get home to get back on here to you all....She also said to give Dad and Mom a big hugg and kiss for her ,be well and know that you are very special to her .Howie,Cait and Lyn

Maybe you need a lap top that way you will stay in bed,lol.
Posted 8/2/2005 5:34 PM (GMT 0)
Great idea Snowy!!

Lyn, dad and I are doing well. We are painting ceramics and still doing puzzles. He is going downhill faster than I expected, but at this point he is actually more compliant and easier to manage because he has quit worrying about bank accounts, income and the car and all. He is very sweet!!

Blessings!

Lynn,

   I hope you are trying to get as much rest as you can and feel better soon. You are in my thoughts and prayers.

                                                  Love,  Babs

Lyn, I just wanted to let you know that you've been in my thoughts and prayers and hoping you feel better very soon!!

Dear Lyn,
I hope you do get a lap top. I got one shortly after I got sick. It makes such a difference, I can keep my legs elevated and type.

I think of you everyday and if it is okay with you, I will give you a quick call when you are up to a little chat. Hope it was okay that I called when you were in the hospital. Rosie emailed me and asked if I had heard from you. I did not mean for Cait to call me back, other than collect. I am sorry she did not call collect. I spoke to her for a very short time.

I am so glad that you are feeling a bit better. How is your son doing? How is your mom? How is Cait? Congradulations btw on her award. She must be such a wonderful daughter. She sounded like a doll on the phone.

I am glad that your sibs are helping out with your mom. I think that is what you said.

Please take care.
Keeping you in my prayers and all of your family. I will never forget that you were there for me on day one.
God Bless,
Judy
