Lawn game

Mom, Dad, and Lenora played a lawn game outside yesterday. Sounds like summer kind-of fun to me! Especially when I look out the window and see not ankle deep or knee deep snow but snow past my waist! Not that I'm that tall but there's absolutely no chance I will be playing any kind of lawn game involving throwing beanbags in a croquet type game outside for at least 2 months yet!! I honestly love the snow though! It's great workout material! If you find yourself running out of fun ideas, try taking a brisk, 20 minute walk out in the middle of a ditch full of snow! It's quite exhilarating to say the least!!
Sometime this coming week Dr James plans to check out Lenora's entire digestive system using a camera. They will push it down her throat to check if there's any indication her problem will have come from something wrong in there.
They are treating her for the intestinal inflammation she contracted from being constipated for so long. She kept feeling pain in her side we thought was from the biopsy in her lower back, while she was still in Winnipeg. Dr James found out the pain actually came from her colon being inflamed. Her body is responding well to the treatment they are giving her for this and the inflammation is clearing up quite well!
As for the inflammation in her neck and spine, this is clearing up well too. Praise The Lord from whom all blessings flow!! The MRI she had last week showed the lesion in her neck was about 50%. The plan is to do another MRI or CT scan before leaving the health Center to check how much is left of the lesion.
Lenora spent a good hour on the roof soaking up vitamin B in the sunshine!
She is doing so well, Dr James is talking of doing a thorough checkup and then releasing her to come home! Next week sometime!!

Thank you for remembering us and especially Lenora in your thoughts and prayers. God bless you for caring!
