Dear Tyler,

Hi pumpkin! How are you doing on this Thursday afternoon? Mom is doing alright today...finally! I am so sorry about everything from the weekend until today. I don't know what the heck happened but Mom was fine Sunday morning and by 2 pm I was sick as a dog again. I believe what I had was a migraine headache. Every time I tried to bend down, over or turn I would get shooting pains in my head. They hurt so bad. I was so tired I couldn't keep my eyes open. I fell asleep at 3 pm watching a movie. I didn't eat dinner and went straight to bed at 5 pm. I slept quite a bit that night while the Tylenol was working but when it wore off I was awake until it kicked back in again. Monday was an absolute blur to me. I was not awake for more than 5-10 minutes at a time until the afternoon....then I was awake for about 1 hour and would fall back to sleep. I did that all afternoon and evening. Tuesday I still have bad sharp pains but I was able to stay awake all day and watch tv for a bit. I thought of you as I watched the show "Charmed". Remember how hooked on that show we were? We watched it all the time! Mom did venture downstairs for a bit Tuesday night but it was only for 2 hours and then right back to bed I went. Yesterday was when I started feeling better. I changed the bed linens, did laundry, cleaned a bit around the house where everyone left it all crap while I was sick...yup that made me pretty angry as there was no need for it...anyways...I did a few things around my office and then called it a day. I never went on my computer at all. It took me all day to do everything but it felt good to be up and mobile. My back was hurting for sitting in bed all those days. we watched tv for a bit and then called it an early night. Today, Mom was up at her usual time. pups were fed and walked. It was a typical day for me. I still took my time but I am 95% back to me again! I never want a migraine again. Unfortunately, Mark seems to be catching it. He is feverish and has a headache and fatigue. This is not good. I told him to take medicine and rest. That is all I did. After dinner tonight it will be upstairs in bed while he is sleeping. Mom will be watching a movie while he gets the rest he needs. he did it for me so now I will repay the favor. Okay... I caught you up on Mom. Now here is the other updates that I have for you: 
 Grandpa went to the doctors on Monday afternoon. The results of his pain in his leg is that it isn't his leg at all which is good but not good that it is his hip. He has what they call a "dry socket". he is on pain meds and has to do physical therapy for a few weeks. If that doesn't work then he will have to have a hip replacement which is major surgery. Mom is scared of that. I am praying and hoping that PT works. Watch over Grandpa for Mom, Ty. I am not sure if this will effect his visit next month or not. I hope not at all. I need to see him. we got some sad news about Uncle Dick. He has more blockage in his heart and he is going for 2 brain scans tomorrow. They are not sure what is going on there. that is all the info I have on that right now so I will fill you in later when I know more. Next, more sad news.... Auntie Donna's Dad, Ron is failing fast. He was at the hospital last week and again Tuesday night. A CT Scan was done and it showed that his body is now full of cancer. He is frail and only 125 lbs so he is tiny. The doctors are going to do a biopsy to see where else and then talk pain management. I did try to reach out to Auntie Donna but I did not get any response back. I know she is busy and her head is all over the place so I will try again tomorrow. I will keep you posted on that as well. I haven't heard from Aunt Beck in a while. I never hear from Bean. I do still chat with Auntie Kristina and Bonnie so that is super nice. Everyone else doesn't bother with me but I am okay with that now. 
 I just saw the time and it is almost 5:30 pm. It is time to feed the pups and then walk them. It is pouring rain so this should be fun. next it will be making dinner for us and then relaxing for Mark! Mom will definitely be back tomorrow with another letter to you. I have a few things to accomplish but I can write during the afternoon when it is not so late in the day. I miss you so much and I love you to the moon and back and all the way around the world. You are my hero and the wind beneath my wings. Forever you live in my heart, mind, body and soul. Have fun while we sleep tonight and come visit in my dreams if you can. Please watch over us all and keep us safe and healthy. The Covid19 stuff is still very much out of control here. Thank you my sweet precious son. Mom has to run now as the pups are stirring....until tomorrow comes...good night and sweet dreams.
 Always, Mommy xoxoxo. Muah 💛
