Hi Stephanie, well Anna is giving it a shot so we shall see what the combination of that and a US guided injection (next week) will do for her. Tell step-Dad we are thinking of him and if he doesn't get better soon we shall need him to sign up as a POE member, that'll fix him! LOL

I'm taking an five hour drive north to see my sister in-law for an few days, not much time, but we haven't seen her in a year. Many changes since her hubby passed away winter before. I'm packing and pill taking to get there today, so I better get off for now and get back to it.

I am reading today they are burying Micheal Jackson  in Glendale Forrest Lawn cemetary with my Californai relatives, I did not know there were so many celebrities there, but I guess you can't see them and don't know they are there unless yoru know beforehand, have axxess to where they are at, they include Clark Gable, Jean Harlow, and W. C. Fields, then the Jackson family bought 12 burial places in there also. I just cried my eyes out when "Pat" passed on, it was not only unexpected, but had it been not for an hispanic house keeper finding  Maxine's letter, we would of never known..and I had just talked to her an week prior, Maxine called me. Pat was in the best of moods, they had just sold her huge huge apartment complex and she had made an deal for another in Newport. Being my mother had passed away, she was with me throughout my pregnancy with my son. cheerying me up, sent me cards, notes, a little something to buy for my child's birth,and what not. I greatly missed talking to her. She sent me an lot of pictures of the family also, all my great aunt's historical research work on the family..asked me to keep them. I asked for pictures of her funeral, and I brought in her grandsons, as the people didnt' even know their names down there doing her funeral, I know time had separated them, but I know she cared about them also. Then I sent her an huge red rose heart... all the way from Portland. As I did my great aunt, and my mother...as I got out of the hospital from the delivery of my son was Memorial Day weekend. I can hear her voice even now talking to me on the phone.I have always wanted to go down there in person, but this is something else to know these people are there also. Her second husbnad was an hair stylist for movie stars. while my uncle I guess build many of their first estate homes down there. Pat's mother had died and she was raised by my great uncle and his sister, and her daughter died after the birth of their third child, in an accident much like Michael Jackson. Catholic's, she had them every year nearly, ping, ping, ping, and was said to been an weak person healthwise. she mistaking mixed liquor with an sedative, back in the days when mixing drugs was little known in these kinds of things. My great Aunt was on an world tour cruise and in Europe at the time, with her husband Peter. She was buried before she got back to California, something my great aunt always felt bad about. We are talking the early 50's this happened. I could use to get some of their history to preserve, I don't have much about the men they married...but so remember hearing Pat's  cheerful voice in my head right now..."Hey, babe,... how you doing today?"..on the phone..."what's the latest on the wee one?".. "I saw the most darling baby outfit today...and immediately thought of you" "Now you simply must tell me the latest news!"
