Last Wednesday Sue had a setback and by Thursday noon was headed to the emergency room in an ambulance. After days of testing and scratching of many heads, most things have been ruled out. She is a medical mystery and, at the same time, a medical marvel.
Sue spent the first night at Missouri Baptist Medical Center then was transferred to Barnes-Jewsish downtown where her physicians are. Today she will go back to Barnes Jewish Extended Care (BJEC) for intensive rehab. Her spirits are good. She is enjoying Cardinal baseball but hasn't been well enough to do her usual computer stuff.
Chris, Shelly, and Brayden returned from their ski trip to Colorado late on Friday. We had Brayden Saturday. Sue was overjoyed to see him. At age 12 he is as delightful as he was at age 2. Shirley and I went with him to the Galleria shopping center to buy new pants, all his now too "high water." Looking around, he said he didn't care for those clothes that had "names on them." Smart kid.
Yesterday we learned that Jalen has been awarded the Kentucky Governor's Scholar Award, a huge deal that means he will get much of his in-state college paid. This summer he will spend five weeks at a Kentucky university in an intensive college experience as part of the award. Congratulations, Jalen!!! The award is given to students who have an excellent academic record (Jalen has a 4.0 GPA), test well, have shown leadership ability, and involved writing an essay.
