a little post from my mama

HELLO BOYS & GIRLS......I WAS ENJOYING MY WINTER VACATION IN FLORIDA, WHEN ON JANUARY 24, MY LEG BROKE AND I ALSO DID ALOT OF DAMAGE TO MY KNEE. BILL CALLED 911 AND AWAY I WENT TO THE NEAREST HOSPITAL TO HAVE MY LEG PUT BACK TOGETHER THE NEXT DAY. THE X-RAYS ARE FUN TO LOOK AT, THERE'S A PLATE WITH SEVERAL SCREWS AND EPOXY GLUE HOLDING IT ALL TOGETHER. ITS AMAZING WHAT SURGEONS MUST DO TO PUT BONES BACK IN PLACE!!! THEN I SPENT THE NEXT 3 MONTHS AT A REHAB CENTER IN SARASOTA, WHICH WAS BEAUTIFUL. I HAD GREAT HELP THERE, MY P.T. WAS HOWARD JACKSON FROM SCOTLAND. HE HAD A SWEET ACCENT AND GREAT SENSE OF HUMOR, SO BETWEEN HIM AND BILL, THEY GOT ME THROUGH THE NEXT THREE MONTHS. WHEN MARCH MADNESS CAME AROUND, THEY HAD A POOL FOR $5.00 AND PICK THE WINNERS. I WON THAT. REALLY PROUD OF MYSELF.. WHILE I WAS THERE, CHRIS, KATHY AND DON CAME DOWN TO VISIT ME, WHICH WAS VERY SPECIAL TO ME... MY DOCTOR GAVE ME PERMISSION TO TRAVEL NORTH TO MY BELOVED PA. IN JUNE WHICH WE WERE GLAD TO DO. THE JUNE BUGS AKA LOVE BUGS AND OTHER 4 LETTER WORDS WERE EX-TREMELY BAD IN MAY AND JUNE THIS YEAR. THANKFULLY WE HAD A SAFE TRIP HOME IN OUR NEW CAR. WE HAVE SUMMER CAMP GOING HERE NOW WITH SIMONE, CHRIS' CAT SPENDING THE SUMMER. SHE LOVES BILL. CHRIS TOLD YOU ALL ABOUT HER FATHER BUYING SANDALS. HE NEVER TAKES THEM OFF!! HE PLAYED GOLF YESTERDAY AND I THOUGHT FOR SURE I WOULD FIND HIM PUTTING CLEATS ON THE SANDALS SO HE COULD WEAR THEM!TO PLAY GOLF, BUT HE DIDN'T.. EVERYONE HAVE A NICE SUMMER, I'LL BE ROUTING FOR THE PHILLIES TO STAY ABOVE 500. GOODBYE FOR NOW
