It's A Christmas Miracle!!

Psssst. Did you hear the good news? Grammy is home from the hospital!


Every Time a Bell Rings. . .

. . .a lady without her gall bladder returns home from the hospital. At least I think that is how the saying goes...

We are thrilled that Liz came home from the hospital yesterday (Christmas Eve) just in time to watch a gagillion grandkids open presents! She is really doing AMAZING and we could not have asked for anything more from Santa!

She is still fighting off those Shingles and we've noticed that she moves at a more human pace these days (instead of that Super-Liz speed with which we're sure you are familiar). It frankly makes the rest of us feel better...and less likely to be up at 2am trying to keep up with her painting a room or organizing a closet! She has follow-up visits scheduled with her surgeon who will hand-pick her oncologist. We are anxious to get on with the next step and work toward treatment.

She is happy to welcome visitors at home but we would like you to call first (925-373-0277). If we don't minimize the well-wishers she will never get her much-needed rest!

We truly believe that her speedy recovery from this major surgery is due to your incredible support and prayers. Keep up the good work on her behalf! At this time of year we are constantly reminded of His good work and mission here on earth. We know that miracles happen everyday. Liz is proving that.

  4. What an awesome Christmas miracle! We are sending up lots of prayers for all of you and especially Liz!!!! I will never hear that phrase, "When a bell rings..." and not think of Liz now. You guys are so awesome. Humor is often the best infusion a body needs to get well. You all are giving her lots of doses of what Liz needs most. Gotta love that!
