Got my call from Duke today... time to move up there! Les got his raise today and now will have to transfer, LOL, Mom was there because we had went to Grandmama's after we got Cora's shots. It is scary to her, I know, she said she couldn't move until I had surgery but I told her we would pay her what she is losing from her patient sitting. That's the only right way to do, any way. Jeremy called and I talked to Seth. Les is on phone now.

Monday, October 8, 2012

Thought it was time to change my picture and get Ames's baby picture off. Can't get Jeremy to send me pictures so got this from FB... Kit is a freebie Autumn Air by Cathy K
Ames had a great party at the Fun Factory yesterday! He got a Clemson Football Build a Bear from us. Gina picked it up for us last week.

Wednesday, October 3, 2012

Les, Mom and I met the kids at IHop for Ames birthday, we had a real good time. Got stopped by Joe Biden's motorcade coming home in Charlotte, that was an adventure! We were first in line. Jeremy has been in field and texted me today, I had worried why I hadn't heard from him in so long! OH I couldn't do therapy today, blood pressure really low.

Saturday, September 29, 2012

Went to the Mud Bog tonight where Sissy gave me the $760 she raised doing a half-n-half. Both men donated their half to me, too! I wish I was able to get there and spend more time there, it is a lot of fun! The people, the music.... all fun!

Char;i going to bookmobile at school

Friday, September 7, 2012



Went to see Charli at grandparenets day this morning, she did great and knew the songs pretty well for being in school 1 week!
Too tired to do full exercises today after that and since Les worked all week and I only got to go today!
Got appointments at Duke Oct 1 day after cake walk.

Tuesday, September 4, 2012

Stayed at home for labor day, Les cooked BBQ and cleaned the frig out. In the middle of a storm now waiting for him to get home.

Saturday, September 1, 2012



Papa bought Charli a sucker and ring pop and Ames Wax teeth, go figure... Any way he ended up with Ames getting a Popsicle which he switched for the sucker ;)

Wednesday, August 29, 2012

I was a little sad today as Charli and Ames left, Charli didn't want to go.
a FB friend Fiona Storey made my tickets for me and my sisters and Lottie are going to sell and the church is having a bake sale the end of September to hep me, too. I hope I can get several friends to come to this. People say they want to know about fund raisers so I hope the really will help!

Tuesday, August 28, 2012

Charli begged Gina to let her spend the night last night. I think the only reason she let her is they start Lifetime Discoveries Thursday. I am sad that I am to the point I can't keep them all day without Les :(
Still trying to get heart MRI I guess I will have to go back to Duke even though I hate to spend $$$. My Lung Fund has come to stand still and I have not got tickets or help yet to do quilt.

Friday, August 24, 2012

Yesterday Les took kids to eat with Twila and Kieth and then to Walgreens to spend money Twila gave them. Charli got what she told me was bubble bath But they were just bubbles, LOL, she took a bubble bath in bubbles! She had a good time though! Been talking to Sandra at Duke, I still have to get MRI of heart when I can get it.

Saturday, August 18, 2012

Time passes by so fast! Did not realize it's been several days since I posted but have not done very much. Did go eat at China Garden Tuesday and it is really rare for me lately. Les had to work 4 nights this week so he helped me so much with the kids. Had two long days Thursday and Friday since Trey is working over.

Monday, August 13, 2012

Went to Cardiologist for follow up. She said I am good but plan on having an Echo in a year just to keep up with it. I did do OK in therapy, too.

Saturday, August 11, 2012

Charli spent night last night, Les was working so we ate a little pizza and she played with her dolls and we colored. She was up at 7:30 but let me lay awhile while she colored beside me then she got up ate pizza Jeff fixed for her and got dressed and played Barbie. While I took my bath she told me call her if I needed anything she would be playing at the book case but ended up standing at the door watching to make sure I was OK, LOL. We watched Sponge Bob Movie twice and she enjoyed her Barbies and doll house.

Wednesday, August 8, 2012

Uncle Bud's church sent us $310, today! It is Kathie's birthday. Twila brought me a beautiful quilt to sell tickets on, I have to see if I can make tickets on my computer now

Tuesday, August 7, 2012

Today I got another $500 check from Danny and Cathy! I now am getting close to $11,000! had good day to day, my knee is hurting again, it is swollen some but am sure it is just arthritis.

Monday, August 6, 2012

Had last 2 tests I needed done today, Went to neurologist Dr Holt for nerve and muscle study and he said everything was good, no signs of active Polymyositis! Then Dr Gilchrist did my colonoscopy, it wasn't too bad, drinking the salty sweet liquids and staying in the bathroom was much the worse part, LOL! Things were good, no problems with that either.
Got the $200 from my cousin David, $50 from Aunt Bootsies SIL and $25 from Miss Vivian and last week $20 from Kat. So still getting money to help even though I have reached goal which is Great!

Friday, August 3, 2012

I was playing Cafe with the kids today and Charli was taking 'orders' and Ames was 'cooking'. He dumped the food out of the basket and Charli said, "if he does that again, I'm going to fire him!" They are so funny. Ames was 22 months old yesterday!

Monday, July 30, 2012

Went to doctor today, down to 120 lb dressed ;(. Colonoscopy scheduled for next Monday

Saturday, July 28, 2012

Les cooked my favorite meal tonight, fordhook butter beans, cream corn and roast! It was so goo, the most i have eaten in a long time! Mama and Grandmama went to see Tabs and broke down on the way, Twila will pick them up Monday. I hurt Mama's feelings because I am not going to try to keep this house and pay rent for Jeff to live here wile living in NC. She is not talking to me and probably will be awhile. She said she can't go with me but I can't have my lung transplant with out her as my caregiver. I know she will do the right thing.

Friday, July 27, 2012

Charli crawled in bed with me this morning telling me silly jokes and BFF secrets, LOL< her big thing is Good News, Bad News! THEN this afternoon she started dancing Sqidward Tentacles dance, she is too funny!

Wednesday, July 25, 2012

Kept Charli and Ames for awhile, it was so great to see them! Tomorrow I will get to spend more time with Charli because I will have them longer.

Tuesday, July 24, 2012

Sunday, July 8, 2012


Kids keeping cool on this hot day

Saturday, July 7, 2012


Had a rather lazy week, exercised M, T and Friday now riding bike 30 minutes because TM was taking heartrate too high. Kept kids Tuesday only so it has been quiet. VERY hot here in SC, though! DTV rec. went out so I had to do 3 days watching big TV and lost my recordings.

Monday, July 2, 2012

Heat is ridiculous, yesterday GSP had the highest ever temp on record at 107! Over 100 storms on record with hail. Debbie posted pictures of her yard. It wasn't too bad here.

Saturday, June 30, 2012



Went to 96 with the kids and got there just before fireworks started, no crowds or traffic :) It has been record setting heat!

Thursday, June 28, 2012

Been busy with VBS this week. Got letter from Duke & call, I have to do several heart tests and couple other thinks and send results to know if I can relocate. These are the most invasive tests so I really need to have good results. VBS had been really easy this year and the kids are learning.

Sunday, June 24, 2012

Poor Les, his Mom was so worried about gets her pills she forgot his Birthday! He wasn't supposed to go over until tomorrow but as usual she was short and he had to go before we went to eat with Gina and the babies, we went to the Chinese place we usually go. Charli made him a card and that made him happy ;)
He hurt his back at Duke and it is very sore.

Saturday, June 23, 2012

Got back about about 4 yesterday then went to IHop with kids, Charli loved her green skirt and put it on to go to dinner. They aren't very encouraging at Duke saying right now I can't survive a surgery. Dr Lin asked if I would consider moving up to do the 5 days of therapy so I could build my muscles and get stronger without the promise of a transplant. It is up to how I can build up

Saturday, June 16, 2012

Twila gave me $110 after the craft sale today,some was donated by Cody and Jamie but the most was from her sales, Sherrie Stauffer also sent $25 on Paypal so I have topped the $20000 mark my first month! I think that is awesome!

Friday, June 15, 2012

Trey walked in today and gave me $$ and I just put it on table thinking he had paid me for keeping kids but it was $500! he raised it on his own by raffling a gun! I am so proud! I also got a $100 check from Carol Bush today! I am amazed at god's goodness in getting this money! It is so close to $2000 now I know it will be over that in a week!
I sure will miss kids this next week!
I pray Twila will do well, I sure want to get rid of some earrings!
I just got $100 from an FB friend Jodi Schwartz that plays FV with me!!

Thursday, June 14, 2012

Had a nice time at Crackerbarrel with Twila and Keith, it was nice to sit and talk, they paid for dinner which was really nice then Keith slipped Les money! I could cry at how wonderful my family has been! That well pushed over the $1000 to $1250! I had FB friends tell me they are sending a check, too.
I went to Office max and got a cheap Photo editing program but should have bought the $40 Print Artist!!! When will I learn?

Tuesday, June 12, 2012

Les did something to break his toe last night, it is all purple and swollen, that's all he needs to add to his gout with all the walking he will have to do next week! Charli is learning to write Meme Pop, Gina and of course her name :) She is bringing me home notes

Monday, June 11, 2012

Allen and Denise sent us $250! Along with the $500 from Danny & Cathy and the $200 from Grandmama's Sunday School class we are $50 away from our first $1000 or 10% of total needed! God is Good!

Sunday, June 10, 2012

Nice quiet day, yesterday we rented We Bought a Zoo and ate from Zaxby's that was nice and movie was good.

Friday, June 8, 2012

Charli was happy to craft today coloring and making paper skirts for Barbie! Time passed fast and we didn't even watch videos.

Thursday, June 7, 2012

Weight down to 123 dressed but did TM of 17min. Poor Les had to spend his two days off taking me to doctor, exercise and going to hospital and keeping kids! He took the babies to get an icecream while I worked out ;)
He is having more foot pain and can't get doctor to see him.

Wednesday, June 6, 2012

Had bone density and TB test done, had tetanus shot in Nov. 2010 so didn't have to do that :D. Kathie was admitted early this morning and will probably be there until Saturday.
Kieth Wideman was cremated today and they just had simple family service in Honea Path
Also it would have been Daddy's birthday so he was on my mind

Tuesday, June 5, 2012

Went by after 6 to take Kathie her bank statement and she was laying down and Nicole was gone so he left in mailbox, we left and 5 min later she called so we turned around and he had to call ambulance. She is on 2 antibiotic IVs, morphine and phenagan still do not know if they will keep her. Julie was mad I posted of Fb instead of calling her but I didn't see a need to call when at that time I knew nothing, it was embarrassing to me to see her fuss in front of my friends but I do expect that type of thing. All I could say was ambulance came took her because she had fever and hurt, that is her life now. Someone took most of her pills again, she had 4 left to last until the 11th when they can be filled. So sad. Jeremy doesn't want to hear that or that my niece lost Kathie's debit card because he feels I am prejudice against them and always putting them down but truth is truth.

Monday, June 4, 2012


Got my account at CountyBank today; it is Tammy Gary's Lung Transplant Fund. Got Tax EIN, also.

Sunday, June 3, 2012


The kids went to Greenville zoo today. I didn't go to church, I thought I have stomach virus but only went twice so was OK

Friday, June 1, 2012


Today it was just Ames and I, Trey thought he would have to work all day so Charli went to work with Mommy and saw a lot of family members ;) I turned my monitor off and he was Mad! He wants to watch 2 videos but I wanted him to play, he played with Charli's Barbies. Les knee still hurting, Says he will go back to Dr. Seems to be back to normal with virus.

Thursday, May 31, 2012

Les came home sick with stomach virus. He is just finishing up Prednisone for knee.

Tuesday, May 29, 2012

Ames pushes my sweaters out of my chair, climbs in and yells Roar wanting to see Dino Fun video! He knows how I work my Wacom pen and tries his best to copy me!
A young man was shot and killed in front of the house we lived in on Singletree left in the ditch! I pray his killer will be found!
Bob Dylan got Medal of Honor today.
Duke sent me fundraising letter.

Monday, May 28, 2012


Les having cook out at work for Memorial Day so I passed on exercise so i didn't have to get out 3 times to take and pick him up and go there. Just being lazy.

Saturday, May 26, 2012

Kept Ames while Les went with Gina and Charli to see Men in Black III and then went to see Grandmama and ate at Sante Fe. Grandmama's Sunday School class is giving me $200 for my Fundraiser.

Thursday, May 24, 2012

Ames sat in my lap well over an hour today watching videos! He is getting better every week! We watched a dinosaur video over and over and Charli laughed so hard!! Tomorrow I keep them from 8 until 1, I need to go to bed early, LOL!
Les knee still swollen

Wednesday, May 23, 2012

I really enjoyed the kids today. Ames is getting better about playing and siting in my lap. He really loves Les! When Les got home Charli and I started watching 80 music videos from movies, she liked that. Ames came with Les's hat on crazy and started dancing to Foot Loose. I will be glad when we can start taking him to Uptown events!

Tuesday, May 22, 2012


Charli brought me a letter when she came over today.

Monday, May 21, 2012

Got my last Hep shot today, thank goodness she didn't hurt like last nurse! I made it through exercise but had to rest a couple of times.
Lots of famous people dying lately, Donna Summer of lung cancer, Robin Gibbs, Whitney Houston just to name a few.

Sunday, May 20, 2012

Charli spent the night last night and we had a blast together! She wanted to have a Party so we got cupcakes and sang and had a pillow fight. She was more playful and talkative than I have ever seen her! She likes to do Sandy Cheeks impressions and I love to hear her talk. She still calls yellow, Lellow and changes letters in many words which is so cute.
Les' knee swollen bad, can barely walk.

Friday, May 18, 2012

Nothing much going on but they called from Duke and scheduled a test where I will have to be sedated and they put a tube in my throat, they also are doing a heart cath Thursday... not looking forward to it!

Wednesday, May 16, 2012

Good sermon at church tonight, hi light of day was cuddling with Ames at naptime ;D

Tuesday, May 15, 2012

Jamie lost her job today! She and Kerry are where we were in 2001!
For good news I got a check from my Uncle Danny and Aunt Cathy for $500. to start our fundraising! My jaw dropped! I have to send them a card ASAP!
So far I have 4 days to stay at Duke this time! I have CT scans, heart cath and ultrasounds scheduled.

Monday, May 14, 2012

I am now working on 15th dish towel, I hope Michael's puts the Sugar and Cream yarn on sale soon, I have enough for several more but would like some more solid colors.
I increased TM to 16 minutes, I hope to have 20 soon but it is hard. Mask makes me feel like I am suffocating.

Sunday, May 13, 2012

Gina came by brought me a great T-shirt, cute card and $$ and Ames was feeling bad, made my day better, though, Charli took my roses home with her, LOL! MIL's house smells like smoke, yuck!
Feeling blue today, Gina didn't come to church and it is raining, haven't heard from Jeremy in weeks and they didn't have a Mother of the Year at church! Sitting here watching the rain feeling sad and dreading that I Have to go to my MIL's!

Saturday, May 12, 2012


My friend Chris Webber put this on my FB wall, I love it!
I got my letter from Duke to get my fundraising started and go back for more tests in June so I am getting closer!
Went to IHop, My Mom and her sister and 2 of her brothers took Grandmama out to eat. It was nice.

Thursday, May 10, 2012

They called from Duke to let me know they were setting up next set of appointments for June 18th so I guess I still have a chance and need to start raising money, we used everything saved up on last two trips and gas is now $3.35 here and is much higher there, but that is down from before.
Went to see N'Tranze uptown, Charli ate her peanuts and laid in my lap relaxing.
Les still coughing but fixed bad brake, will do other side next week.

Wednesday, May 9, 2012

Gina took me to therapy and Nell and Cliff took us to church. Was raining and Les still sick.
Got shocking new that Kerry no longer works for Ballentine!

Tuesday, May 8, 2012

Les was too sick today and slept, he said he is going to try to work but I don't know if he will be able to. Gina is going to take me to therapy because the back brake show has messed up and Les is unable to fix but thinks he can drive to work, it sounds awful! Charli and I ate Birthday Cake ice cream and she told me it wasn't anyone's birthday so we sang Happy Birthday to her and I gave her a pretend gift, we laughed. She makes me laugh and so does Ames.

Monday, May 7, 2012

Been busy today! Got Hep B second shot before therapy (Made 30 exercise minutes) then had to take Les to Dr with upper respiratory infection and had to go to dentist to get wisdom tooth filled. Guess we have to go get his meds and something to eat soon. I lost 3 more lbs to weigh under 125 now...
Still no word from Duke but have seen most tests results online through the site.

Saturday, May 5, 2012

Kept kids today while Trey worked extra hours, I am working on 10th dishcloth since I started! Charli likes to watch me crochet them. Felt pretty good today but Les has cold for last 3 days.

Thursday, May 3, 2012


Cathy K has a new kit called This IS ME on sale this week end for NSD at SBE for $3

Wednesday, May 2, 2012


I started exercising with mask on and that helps last longer on treadmill, it is not a great thing to wear but works for high liters of O2 I need, using 15 to walk. Several of my tests are back and seem to be OK, especially the one I was concerned about
Ames is saying many words now and bringing diaper when he is wet. Gina sent me video of him on potty, so funny!

Tuesday, May 1, 2012


here's picture of Gina's yard after she got flocked, I took pictures of our's too but not uploaded yet. Money goes to a special teen project.

Monday, April 30, 2012


Charli had a cute little show at school tonight where she wore a US flag so Gina got her these cut boots to wear. She did a really good job! I have been very busy today, therapy, dentist and there, have to go back to dentist because I have a cavity in left bottom wisdom tooth, Yuck! He said it is because I have had this dry mouth that it popped up so fast.

Saturday, April 28, 2012



Found these pictures of the furnished apartments Les and I stopped by called The Hamptons, I sure would Love to live here! The kitchen is small but but has a garden tub in but baths and a screened porch. They even provide linens! Have washer and dryer, too!!
Ames is now calling me Meme and giving kisses!

Friday, April 27, 2012

Home from North Carolina! Took about same actual time to do interstate and rack roads because we made fewer stops and did a quick lunch instead. The Barium Swallow was not near as bad as last time, Elaine was my nurse and several of the people remembered us!
Was a little worried after talking to doctor but after test not so much. Found a wonderful place I would love to live! It is beautiful and 2 bedrooms, dining room and screened in porch. They blew my vein out doing the kidney test and it looks terrible! I also have one from blood gas and small one from blood draw. Laurie did my breathing test and said diffusion down 45% which is Not good.
Cora had an adventure, too, we dropped her at my MIL's before we left and a few minutes later the ADT man opened door and let her out! She has a chip and they found her so we picked up as we got home.

Monday, April 23, 2012

Felt better than I have in awhile so I worked on my dishtowels ans finished several pairs of earrings to sell!
I have a knot on my knee and couldn't exercise, though. Les got off Predinisone the weekend and woke up with swollen hand Sunday, doctor told him to take more.

Sunday, April 22, 2012


Rainy day, getting ready to go Tuesday to NC, I hope gas doesn't cost too much!

Saturday, April 21, 2012

YEAH! Found the old blogger interface!
It always makes me do a double take when things change, I like the way posts were before, don't know why they have to change! Decided to make dishclothes at Duke, made one tonight and turned out good. Nice and portable and will make good gifts! Ate at China Garden, love the cheesy shrimp!

Friday, April 20, 2012

Tuesday, April 17, 2012


I can't believe I found this! I had a brown one, my heart broke when my Mom throw it away! Pinned it on Pinerest.

Saturday, April 14, 2012

Was very lazy today but learned to crohook! Rocky spent several hours with jeff :P

Friday, April 13, 2012


Went to Kevin and Shannons and played games and ate hot dogs.

Thursday, April 12, 2012

It was chilly at concert (Men of Distinction) and since Charli sat in my lap whole time we left early and stopped by mall and then ate with kids at IHop which was enjoyable.
Charli spent most time in my lap today ;)

Wednesday, April 11, 2012
