The NIGH****CHMAN - 5/12 - Wednesday
Geraldine will be getting out either today or tomorrow. She is doing a little better.
Not much else going on.
Just a reminder, you need to TAKE YOUR VITAMINS AND SUPPLEMENTS and make sure you get your daily allotment of PROTEIN.
If you are new to the board, this link explains what the NIGHT WATCHMAN is (if you are interested). Otherwise, just read on, you will probably figure it out anyway.

Hey George. I am sitting here trying to stay awake. I drank an energy drink, and I am still tired. That leads me to believe maybe my vitamin levels are off. I have got to do a better job with them. This week has been hard, but I have made sure to take my MV every day. If I take baby steps, I am hoping to get back into taking all my vitamins on a regular basis.
Take care.

Hi George! Thanks for keeping my family on the prayer request. I'd like to add another request, please. My sister that had a tumor removed from her jaw last June is going to require an additional surgery scheduled for June 3. The titanium plate BROKE, the docs are puzzled they have never seen or heard of this happening before. She's really bummed as the surgery is difficult and she is just now feeling pretty good from the last one. It isn't as comprehensive as last time so we are hoping the recovery goes better.
Just a reminder on vitamins, I had my labs drawn and what's been received so far (some had to be sent out) is that my ferritin is not so good......dang I hate iron but know it's important so I'll have to suck it up and add it back in. I know the consequences but can be stubborn sometimes.

Finally got all the "mommy" stuff done so hopefully going to start the "unwind" process and then off to bed!
Went to the girls' awards program. It was very nice. Heather got two academic awards, one in HST II (nursing class) and one in Math. Viktoria didn't get academic recognition, but, actually earned one of the "high honors". She was recognized for Leadership qualities. The asst. principal described them all as "kids who get things done here at the school". Yippee!!! Soooo, now gotta find new document frames! I am falling asleep so I'd best finish up and then hit the hay!
