Just heard from Lixy
 

Got an email from Lixy yesterday. She's doing fine. As many of you know, her sister has a number of serious medical conditions and recently they have caused a great deal of anxiety and stress. Lixy and her hubby are spending a lot of time traveling to be at her side and to help her sister's family cope with the problems.

Lixy said she was sorry that there really hasn't been time to even get on the computer to let folks know. We've been calling her house several times expressing our concern that maybe something had happened to them and that's why she took the time to respond. She asked everyone's forgiveness for beng gone but promised when it's possible, she'd be back.

:line::line::line::line:

Please, keep her and her family in your prayers. This is a difficult time for them.

Lixy, to you and yours ... our heartfelt prayers and good thoughts!

Yep.

Family first, then your second family.

dicksbro,

Thanks for the update. :) Lixy's doing the right thing, and no apologies are necessary. We will still be here when she returns. Please pass along my wishes and hopes for a speedy and acceptable resolution.

Thanks for the update, DB. I hope all the "fine" note aren't just social quickies.

When personal problems took a toll in my life, I had to take an extended sabbatical from pixies while I finished herding the earthworms...when I came back, I was welcomed with open arms by all (or at least by all I really cared about ;) ) ...please let Lixy know, if you get the chance, she can expect the same treatment when she's able & ready to return.

((((DB & Mrs)))) Thank you both for keeping in touch with Lixy and letting us know.

Please tell her that she is missed and her... "is that a word?...It is now!"

((((Hugs, thoughts & prayers to Lixy & family)

Thanks for letting us know, DB.

(((Lixy)))

In my prayers doubly, now!

DM

Thank You very much for the update DB!!!!

As for Lixy, well......... ummmmmmmmmmmm...... you never forget your first..... and Lixy got my Pixie cherry! Love and miss you Lixy..... want me to send more whoopie pies? :D

Thanks so much DB for the update. I have missed Lixy and she has been on my mind lately. I pray for her sister to gain strength and improve healthwise. I look forward to lixy's return.

My turn:

I heard from Lixy last night. She says to tell everyone she thinks about you all the time and misses you lots.

She seems to be doing well considering the circumstances with her sister and wants everyone to know she'll be back as soon as she can.

I'll keep you posted if I hear anything else.

Thanks, musicman. I was thinking it's been long enough that I should try reaching her again, but this news is really great! They're a super couple that we think of often! Thanks.

next time, pass along my hellos and good wishes. :)

The Wheel weaves as the Wheel wills. (I love book references). All we can do is prepare for the worst and hope for the best. Send some hugs on from me.

God bless her, I've heard from Lixy again ...
 

Lixy just sent us a terrific note bringing us up-to-date on her sister.

Her sister no longer communicates effectively. Lixy and her family read simple things to her sister, but her sister's attention span is quite short.

The kids my wife takes care of in a Before and After Care program did a lot of cards for her sister and we mailed those to her. I guess her sister can no longer read but she was so happy to look at the wonderful and colorful pictures the kids did. These young children are terrific! They ask about Lixy's sister and pray together for her every day. It's the way things ought to work. No wonder our Lord said that it's of such as these that the kingdom of heaven is made.

Her sister hasn't been able to come home yet ... not since her last seizure and a blod clot in her lungs. The clot has lessened but it's still scary. She can't walk any more, so Lixy and her family help stimulate the legs and exercising them.

Lixy misses Pixie's so very much. She simply hasn't had much time to spend at the computer and feels bad about that. But, we're grateful that she took the time to send us this note and kindly said that I could share highlights of it with everyone here.

From Lixy ... hugs and kisses and hugs and more kisses!

Lixy ... the same from us to you! :x: :grope: :x:
