Email from Dad...

Dad occasionally sends out an email to the family telling us what's going on...this one was sent on Sept 13:
 
All good plans do not always work. Mom was going to Lake Tahoe for her yearly week long quilting retreat, and I and the Mealeys were heading for Morgan Hills to attend church and Garrett's ordination.
 
Well mom's nose has been bleeding, off and on for a week, and because of not getting any sleep and holding tissues in her nose she was pretty well tuckered out. A visit to Kaiser showed her platelets were way down but not yet at the critical stage. Then a second visit on Saturday (the emergency room was the only place that could deal with that ( what ? ) problem. So we spend 4 hours there going from room to room with the final news that we had to come back Monday to cat-arise ( could not find correct spelling ) the leak in her nose.  The gave her something temporary to stop the bleeding   which has worked so far. So back we go tomorrow.

What is Your Emma Story?

This blog is a chance to remember and honor Emma by bringing us together in a way that can only be done through a medium like the internet. We love her, we will miss her, but she's here for a short time still, and we want to smile and cry and laugh together with her as much as possible while we can.

Emma has touched a monumental number of lives through her work as a mother, grandmother, friend, teacher, artist, and to Ted as a dear wife. There are countless stories that have already been told many times, and there are many others that we're going to learn for the first time as we read them here.

PLEASE SHARE YOUR THOUGHTS, STORIES AND PICTURES!!!

Not only will we be able to laugh and smile together, even after Emma has passed, but we will be sharing this blog with Emma. If you have a story, long or short, silly or sad, pensive or outrageous, please take some time and share it with us and Emma.

This is such a dear time for all of us. Thank you for your thoughtfulness and prayers.
