Hey, Texas Progressive,

[okasha]

how are Mrs. Progressive and your granddaughter doing?

1. Thanks for asking

Mrs. Progressive is doing well. She had a colonoscopy and they found one polyp which was removed.Since they haven't contacted us about it I guess it is negative for cancer. In the upper end of the colon there were 3 small blood vessel bleeds that were cauterized. They no doubt contributed to the anemia. The doc said that there were probably some more of these in the upper gut but as she didn't want that procedure to continue with regular blood test for anemia. Her blood pressure is normal with medication and she is feeling better than she has in several years.

The granddaughter is doing well. She will be going on a trip to Arkansas during spring break next week. It looks like removing the growth from her pituitary gland has done the trick. She still has some joint pain which we are praying will diminish with time.

A lot of people have been praying for my dear ones and I am grateful for that.
