Well what a week. VBS was great. I had so much fun with the kids. They all learned words and music to the songs, even the little ones and it was the cutest thing I have ever seen!!! On Tuesday I was walking to Shelly's office when all of a sudden I felt a loss of balance and then when I spoke my words came out like nonsense even though I knew what I was saying. I waited it out, got through the day and mentioned it to mom and Steve who insisted I see a doctor on Wednesday. I called the Doc to make appt. and she said go straight to the ER. So I spent from 9:30 - 4:30 at the ER, had a Cat scan, ultrasound of my Corotid Artery and lots of blood work and lo and behold I had a TIA. I have to follow up with the neurologist on Tuesday. All I could think was, Here we go again!. I didn't tell anyone until Wednesday night because I wanted a diagnosis first.I am feeling fine now. Rev. Spence asked me how I was feeling last night and I said "Good" and he said ( this cracks me up) " You're lying to me" Isn't that hysterical? He said " you know we love you and we are praying for you" How special is that folks? Dawn called me this morning and that was so nice. I mean how rich am I?? Wealthy beyond measure. It's a good day to live MacDougal!!!!

I am really glad that you got your Thomas the Tank Engine sticker, but I really hope you don't have to get any more. Let's not go starting a doctor's office sticker collection or anything. Seen any more dancing deer lately?
