A Day With Debbie

Mark & Lindsay and the girls leave in the morning early for Disney for a week---I know they are so excited tonight but I can't wait for them to be back home, I know how bad I will miss them! have fun, hurry home tho!
Kaitlyn spent most of hte week with mama & I, we shopped, ate out, she got to swim some and go to the movie---tomorrow she gets to go to work at the ER with her mommy, can't wait to here the stories....
Took mama halfway tonight, I hope she had a good time, I cooked all her favs for her, took her fo rlunch, shopped, had pics made with her great-granddaughters....took her to get her nails done and toes clipped then to the dr to get her ears cleaned, took 3 hrs...but she can hear now....she took lots of leftovers home....

A cold front came thru today, high was 98, been over 100degrees for at least a week now.
Kaitlyn has been here the last week, we have bowled, played putt-putt, seen a movie, swam...tomorrow we leave for Kerrville to help mama out around the house some and hopefully bring her back to Waco with us for a week or so. She had her bottom teeth(what was left, they have been falling out) pulled last week and still not feeing great plus her hearing is so bad right now. So, maybe a little vacation is what she needs!
I helped Jewell out yesterday, we started packing up her kitchen getting her ready to move into the retirement center,still lots more to pack!
Loraly is a fish now, she can jump into the deep end of the pool, she has no fear! They are getting ready for their big trip this summer to Disney World, they leave in a week.
Paul is back from radiation this week, seems to be doing great so far! He went thru a high dose chemo last week and did wonderfully! This next week is the week his immune system is very low, so he usually has to go back to Cooks for platelets and cannot be around other children to keep him in good health.

Madalyn is going thru a case of mommy departure anxiety right now, she is having a hard time leaving without her mommy...took mommy a while to convince her it was okay to go with us to play with Paul for a little while but after we left she was all smiles and non stop talk...
Today Mike & I took her and Paul to play putt-putt and to Kiddie land to ride a few rides then got to ride the train....afterwards we all went to Chick Fillet for lunch before we had to get Paul back for a haircut....
Paul is not doing great, they found a lump in his head, he is hurting a lot now, legs, shoulders, now this head thing,wanting to lay on couch a lot---so, on Monday he goes back to Cooks for more chemo, hopefully this will shrink the tumors some and make him more comfortable...Leigh and Terrill are looking at a study in New York at Sloan Ketterling, if the study will accept Paul with all this progressive disease going on now...
Pray that he will be more comfortable and no pain and that next week will be easy on the whole family.

Katy got home from her vacation on Thursday, she got to go to Cancun for 5 days with her friend Kendall....she said she got to go on a pirate ship, swim a lot n the ocean, saw some girls with no tops on----her flight home was a bit bumpy at times, they hit an air pocket and Katy got upset....anyways, she is glad to be back home and in her own house and bed! I am ready to see you baby, I did not like not being able to talk to you every night! Welcome back home....
Hopefully, she will come to grandmas for a few days this week to visit!
