Mending Bridges

I've had a wonderful spring. Although I hate testing season, it went by faster than normal and we've had another graduation and celebration of the future for our students. We've had another addition to our family, Miss Tiffany. She has had a tough life and was kicked out of her house just before her nineteenth birthday. She has been a blessing to us and it is a joy having her in our lives.

Angel is now a mother of a beautiful little girl named Alexis Ann named after her Aunt Lexie. We have been in contact through the telephone and FaceBook and I have got to meet her baby girl. Time heals all wounds and we've moved on from the pain and want to be a part of each other's lives. Getting back in touch with each other has been a very good thing for both of us.

In other news I'm having a big reconstruction surgery on July 29th. It is called DIEP Flap reconstruction and in short it takes belly fat and skin and makes a new breast out of that. (I *know*!!!) I will spend the first night in ICU to make sure the flap isn't rejected. I will probably spend four nights in the hospital and have four to six weeks of recovery.
