Yesterday I made an unexpected trip to my sister's house in South Carolina to be with Granny after she was released from the hospital earlier in the day. She is recovering well, and the pacemaker is doing what it's supposed to do! We're so thankful she's feeling better.
I'll be here for a week or more to help care for her and will take her to several follow-up appointments that are scheduled while my sister is teaching.
Thank you all so much for the comments, emails, and phone calls we've received asking about her--she appreciates your love and concern. Thank you for all the well wishes!
While I'm here...look who will be a bit underfoot...Mr. Barney!
Barney just celebrated his 7th birthday on Friday while Granny was in the hospital! Happy Birthday, Barney!
I think he likes me--at least he follows me everywhere! Looks like I'm in for some good times while I'm here.

I'm so glad she's doing well! I'm sure you'll be a wonderful caregiver. :)

I'm so glad to hear your dear mom is doing better. We're continuing to pray for her complete recovery.
Barney is pretty cut but I suspect there is somebody back home that might be a little jealous. :)

Love to Granny from Australia. I'll bet that Mr Barney has a paw in helping her get well.
