You may think I’m talking about my 3rd grandchild just announced by Jocelyn on her blog but you would be wrong. As excited as we are by that news(and we are, we were told a few weeks ago) it has been overshadowed by Betty needing another stent. She has had no energy for several month and this morning she went for an angiogram. That showed some blockage at the point where she had the first stent put in on July 4th, 2004 so they put in another one. She’s staying overnight in the hospital and we think she’ll probably be home tomorrow. Your thoughts and prayers are always appreciated.

I hope this is successful. It’s not fun to be dragging, especially when she has the heart and diabetes worries hanging over her all the time. Keep us informed.
Congratulations on the new expectation.

I surely hope that this stent does the trick. I wonder why she has had so many heart problems when she is so young (for stents and stuff like that). When one is in their 60’s or older, it is more common.
When I first counted great grandchildren, on Joc’s blog, iI think I miscounted, and included Betty’s three–they are only grands! I still have a lot!

Thank you everyone for your thoughts and prayers. I’m very tired, painful, and weak, but resting and sleeping quite a bit. I’ve started my first blog. Check it out at

Betty, I was going to post on your blog but it looks like I need a google account, so I didn’t. I hope you continue to feel better.

Yeah I’m not sure why she made her blog on Google instead of asking me to help her get one going. I bet bettylafferty.com is available.

I’ve had a blogger.com account for several years, but never used it. I forgot that you need an account to interact in blogger. It is their way of keeping track of spam. Although, it didn’t ask me for any google information, except as an alternate email.
