Good Evening from Backus Mt
Mommy hasn't slept much and has eaten even less. This evening we noticed that when she swallows, it is just her gag reflex, her tongue doesn't go to the roof of her mouth, pushing the food down. It just lays there. She was like that after her big stroke. Ya'll pray that it will improve, allowing her to eat! She hasn't talked today either. She said a few words this morning and then nothing. She was laughing, however, when she went to bed. She always laughs at night! I had to run and get groceries today and I ran into Mommy's niece, Helen Wingo's daughter. She said that she and her sister Brenda are keeping Helen and it is so hard. She has become somewhat combative and she hurts herself in the process. They had to take her to the hospital to have her heart checked out and they took pictures of all her bruises and scrapes. She said Helen told them that her girls were mean to her!!! Now, I know they aren't, so they really need prayer. Linda is not well, she has diabetes really bad and it is really taking a toll on her. Pray for them all.
Teresa is becoming quite the domestic engineer! I got boiling water and ice water to skin the peaches for her cobbler (her second one) and she said she would "shuck" the peaches. Hey, if she wants to shuck them, it's fine by me:)
I'll talk to ya'll tomorrow.
