Sept 27, 2 weeks post-op Leslie has lost 24lbs. She seems to be feeling better. She is going for rides in the car and she's getting her son ready for school in the mornings. She's even doing his homework with him in the afternoon. She's doing laundry also. Yesterday was the first day she said, "that smells good. I'm hungry." I think she has finally stopped giving in to the blues. Thank you, God. She and her family have been staying with me while she recuperates. (Leslie, son and their cat) Leslie and her son and continue to stay, but the cat HAS GOT TO GO. Her cat keeps beating up my 2 cats. She has out worn her welcome.
