UPDATE~~~~ I sound like a reporter!!

[barbaranoela]

1. Kait asked me not to post her picture---she is still comparing herself as to what she looked like at the 8th grade prom---so I respect her wishes--
2. All the Dr.s that left Beth Israel Hospital,when it closed, are @ NYU and when they saw her name on the patient list---*there is only one Kait* and so they have been visitng her---also the psychologist--

3. NOW the BIG NEWS~~~~~~~~~ they decided to try the procedure the way the neuro in Phoenix does!!!!!! Cus as I said before----they dont know where else to shunt her!!!!
This neuro goes somewhere into the *brain* area and has had success--
HarTer had shunted the ventricles,in Kait's head,but he cant go back into them again---

So dear friends---the time has come to *poop*(cleaning up my mouth) or get off the

And lucky me~~~~~~ am bound up again----appears Norman just wants to *hang-in*

Thank U for the lovely compliments----
*Beauty shines when U have friendships that are *true* --quoted by Miss B.N.

Till later---have to take Mr. Louie to the GP now----tomorrow to the operating cardiologist---
WHEWWWWWWWW-----time runs fast--even when U arent having fun---

Thanking U all for always being here---

and for Marrrrrrrrgieeeeeee WHATEVER

luv Barbara

Sisbarb,

Seeing your pretty face with that beaming smile puts me in a great mood. What a way to start Monday morning!

I am relieved to hear that they found a new option. Kait needs a procedure drastically different from what she has endured so far, IMHO. More of the same just hasn't worked. So I am optimistic.

Have fun running to the docs. Catch ya later.

Love,

Polly

I sure hope this one does what it's supposed to do, Barb. I feel so bad for Kait, I get tears in my eyes. She obviously got a lot of "Grandma" in her genetic makeup. Lucky girl

Love, Shirley

Hi Barb, I am so glad to see a pretty face to the name, I am also so glad that there is another option for Kait. She is in my prayers every night....If she doesn't like her picture...take another so that we can see this lovely child. Good luck on Mt Louie's Doctor visits. Take it easy, and we are thinking of you. Let us know.....Love Oma the Herb Lady

Barbarrrrrrra! Oh, I can SEE you now! Yippee! I'm so glad to put a face with a voice!!!!!

Just a quick note about Kait - let us know what you find out! We are anxiously waiting!

The visit to Kozin,GP, was very emotional----
Dr. Kozin hugged Lou and of course there were tears in both their eyes---
Tell ya, this GP is a quite a man-----

He still has to *behave*---and tomorrow we see Dr. McCullough,the operating cardiologist-----hoping that this be the last visit----hate the drive to NOO JOYSEY have to throw in that NOO YAWK aXent---

And after visit today we went to lunch with Pete and Lorraine--they figured that it would be good for Lou;s spirits to get out and have a laugh or 2----and it was the PERFECT medicine for him----and perfect for me cus I didnt have to C.O.O.K.---

Hot as all hades----

As of yet---have heard nothing from Lynn---maybe later after she gets to the hospital--

till later
keep a smile
luv Barbara
