Lesley has meningitis and is back in ICU. This is not entirely unexpected as it is a direct result of the surgery on her spinal cord, but she has little strength reserve. The docs have not yet got her temperature down and her heart is struggling badly. She is conscious and fighting as hard as she can. I am going back to the hospital to be with her overnight and to make sure that she has the music she wants.

That's rough, after everything else she's been through.

I'm sure sorry she (and you) are having to go through all of this.

Best wishes for a speedy recovery, and warm healing thoughts.

Roland, I continue to pray for both of you. It's hard go have to go though these highs and lows. I'm glad that she has you there for support and encouragement.

Tell us something.: "Tell us something" hits me a bit like someone asking me to tell a joke. I can always think of a hundred of them until someone asks me for one. You know how it is. Right now, I can't think of "something" to tell you. But I have to use at least 100 characters to inform you of that.

She will be in my thoughts. This is so sad. You would both deserve better.
