Need to take a hiatus

This will be my last entry for a while. My husband, Ben, has been sick for several days and is now in the hospital for congestive heart failure. On Thursday he will be moved to St. Joseph's Hospital in Atlanta to have a device placed on his heart called an LVAD "left ventricular assist device." This device helps the heart beat more efficiently. We do not know much about the surgery regarding how long he will be in the hospital or what to expect about his recovery. Rather than feeling guilty for not writing my blog, I have decided to take a rest from posting.

We ask for your prayers during this time of our lives. I have finished with chemo (Thank the Lord) and will have a PET scan next Thursday and have my port taken out shortly after that. I am depending on the kindness of my darling family to help me through this time in our lives.

Love and joy to all of you. Goodbye for now. Carla
