Dear Betsy,
I just wrote Sandy. She called yesterday and is bleeding heavily. She went to the doctor and he is going to watch her. She may have to have a D&C. Markel is fine and still nursing. Women who breast feed rarely bleed until 6-9 months after they deliver. I never did. She is on an estrogen pill also and started bleeding after she took it. It doesn't sound good. She hasn't sent the pictures and I asked to please send them.
By the way. Grandma was so thrilled to get your card. She didn't say who it was from but started describing it and said the color was lavender and I said "Oh, that must be from Betsy." She read the card and said it was from you. Anyway, you are the only grandchild who sent her one and she was happy about that. She is 68. She and Grandpa are going to the Smokey Mountains and Grand Chapter for a few days. They leave tomorrow. They are busy doing something most of the time. Keeps them active. Grandpa feels pretty good since the surgery took away the pain.
My feet are bad today. I have a bladder infection and I think the medicine I started last night for it is causing them to be so red and hot. It sure nauseated me.
So how are your jobs? I bet you keep busy. How is Kermon? Does he go to school or work or both?
Bob has been in the hospital almost a month with high BP and I mean high. He seems better now but it is still 150/90 to 190/100. His arteries are shot. Mine are about as bad. Plus I keep gaining weight from the medicine they are giving me for my feet. I gain a # a month. I weight 130# now and I don't eat that much really.
I am not active and get little exercise because of my feet. They were so very swollen when I got home from Provo. It took a week on almost bed rest to get them down. I loved Utah but the sun is hotter there and it was 80-85 degrees and the sun really bothers my feet.
I couldn't afford to move there really. Sandy really wanted me to and I had to disappoint her. I hated to say no. I always wanted to live in the west but I guess it is better here for my legs. Markel is so very beautiful and pretty. Mark says she already weighs 10#. Sandy is a good mother. She said she needs to go to work. They really need money. I guess Mark isn't making much. I hope things work out. They seem very happy. I took some pictures and I will get them developed and get you some.
Kirstie called. She wants the dishes. I think you and Kermon and Kirstie and Will should come here and go to the storage place and unload everything and take what you want. Grandma pays $20 a month to store my things and some of Bob's. Think about it. Talk to Kirstie. I can't go there and unload it. It is on the 2nd story and a ladder to climb. I can't do it.
Well, I will close now. Please remember I love you so much and I miss you. Take care of yourself and write. I love hearing from you. Remember I love you.
All my love,
Mom
