We’re working on getting Nora home.
My bride is one of the most amazing people I know. She’s back on the 4th floor at St. Joseph’s. Meaning she is in the regular cancer ward. Her seizure could have been caused by the chemo, high blood pressure, or any number of things. When your body is compromised, it reacts in all sorts of ways.
I drive to Savannah from The Ridge every morning to be with her. The drive is a pleasure, not a hardship. I drive to see my lover. That same lover complains (with a smile) when I try to push a bottle of Ensure on her. That same lover curses me (with apologies, she is Southern woman, born and raised) when I try to position her so she can eat breakfast, which doesn’t happen. Nora is not a breakfast person.
Dr. Yannucci (Nora’s oncologist)is trying to get a drug regimen set up so Nora can come home. We’ll be setting up either a palliative care (more procedures) or hospice care plan for her.
When awake, she teases the doctors, nurses and me. As I left today, I said, “See you tomorrow.” Her rather loud response was, “Not if I see you first.”

Get ready to come home Sis,.,. All of us are waiting for you,, so are your dogs.. See you soon!
Love you bunches 🙂
Paul, would you please check Nora’s Facebook site and read her the messages that were sent to her on her birthday, Saturday? Also, I am mailing her a card that the Class of 1968 signed for her. Please give her my love.

Surely hope that you will be home soon. Thinking of you every day, with a prayer in the evening. Belated happy birthday to you Nora! With love,
Tana
Dearest Nora, Keep the faith and good things always happen. Prayers for you and Paul.

Wow , going home, amazing , but then it is you Nora ! I’m thrilled to hear this news. Happy belated birthday. We all had a drink for you on Saturday and it wasn’t Ensure. We saved one for you for later. Don’t give Paul such a hard time and eat your breakfast. A good Southern girl eats her grits and smiles while doing so ! Keep on being your amazing self. Lots of love to you both.
