First a recap for anyone who loves our parents and $First a recap for anyone who loves our parents and for whatever reason has been out of the loop on this one. Then I’ll update for those waiting on news. The recap: Papa had a cardiac event Monday. His heart stopped at four p.m. Had his defibrillator not shocked him, Papa would be meeting Jesus face-to-face this Christmas. That would be perfectly fine with Papa but the rest of us are glad he’ll still be here. For what it’s worth my working theory is that Papa was holding up the line at the gates of heaven, passing out his Gideon Bibles to anyone who would take them, hoping to win them to Christ and change their eternal destiny before they stood before the throne. I think a divine decision was made to send this laborer back into the fields for a little while longer. The update: As of this writing, papa has had a slew of tests. He passed his stress test, which means no cath for now. We are awaiting news on his EKG and an x-ray on his right knee, which has become increasingly painful since he blacked out and hit the concrete in the parking lot of the Affinity building. He may have twisted it or there could be a break. We will see. Doctor Sampignaro has made changes to his meds that might require him to stay another night for observation to make sure the new meds don’t interfere with his cardiac rhythms. After that, we will be able to break this cowboy out of jail, and trust me this guy is more than willing to get out of Dodge City and back to his puppy dog, Honey. In fact, he tried to escape several times during the night! True. Story. As for the accompanying reel, turning that single bed into a double in the ER has not been our sole infraction during this stay. Thankfully, the Saint Francis staff has been incredible. Everyone is so kind, so loving, attentive and professional! On behalf of all of my family, we are so grateful to them and for those of you who have been praying. In the hard and the hope, God reigns. Merry Christmas! #lifelongromance #thekingandqueen #christmas2024 ****Update since I wrote that and I don’t have the energy to edit it but Doc has looked at everything and given the word that he can “get outta here”. So, we’re packing!!!$

A Christmas wish and a story for everyone who knew

A Christmas wish and a story for everyone who knew and loved MawMaw Lucy, Monk, and Grandmother. IYKYK all those names belonged to the same lady. Phil’s mother, a one or a kind southern belle had a personality so large it was only fitting that her grandchildren spread far and wide around the country all gave her a different grandmother name!

In her later years, when it became hard for Lucy to remember who she was to which family, she covered her bases and simply signed her cards with all the names! Lucy adored Christmas and she did it up right! She is well known in this small town for the big old Cadillac she drove in the center of the road (not even joking) and the large lit-up wreath she adorned the front grill with when the holidays rolled around. And that’s where this little hip rider, Kennedy Lee, comes into the story.

We’ve long seen MawMaw Lucy’s expressions in Kennedy’s little face, and Lucy’s great grandchild has an outsized personality of her own, but this week I realized she may also have the “bigger is better gene.”

Kenny Frienny and I were driving through town looking at all the lights when she asked a question that rang all kinds of bells. For storytelling purposes I’m going to try to capture her voice in the spelling. “Hey Keggie, can you put Chrismus decorwations on caahs?” I told Kenny you sure could and then I told her the story of her grand grandmother who did! She and I are still thinking about doing mine. ♥️🎄⭐️ Merry Christmas!
