A BIG Thank You!!!

Sharon wanted to send a BIG thank you to everyone for the cards she has been receiving. She appreciates them all very much.

Bob sent some new pictures. I have included a few in this post. They were taken at the Mayo Museum and Mansion. The first picture is of Sharon and Pat. The next picture is of Pat and Steve. After that, is Steve, Pat and Sharon. Then, Sharon and Pat again. The last ones are of the Mansion and grounds.

Sharon, Bob, Pat and Steve went to a festival that is held every week. There were arts, crafts and fresh vegetables. Sharon bought some of the vegetables which she said were very good.

The Shriner's were holding a Parade and Convention this weekend. When I spoke to Sharon on Friday, she mentioned they may attend.

Bob had a birthday this weekend. Happy Birthday!!

They have met some interesting people while they have been at the Gift of Life House. Sharon was telling me about a man and woman that arrived this past week for a lung transplant. Each of them were receiving one lung from a woman who had passed away.

Steve and Pat are very impressed with the Mayo. Steve said it is like being at a five star hotel. They have greeters to assist you when you arrive. They always have someone available to assist or direct you if needed. Everyone there treats the patients and families wonderfully.

As for the week ahead, Sharon has a blood test on Monday. Pat will continue with her shots to boost her stem cell growth. Tuesday, the harvesting will begin.
