After one whole week in the hospital to get her strong enough for surgery-She came through better than the surgeon expected!! She is amazing & her surgeon did an amazing job! She did not expect to live through the surgery & we basically all said goodbye Thursday evening. She is stronger than she seems and she even surpised herself this time! It has been very intense emotionally. It is nice to be in Alaska, it feels familiar, it is beautiful. It is really hard being away from home. The kids are doing a good job keeping things under control but...I feel helpless about things that need to be done there. And I miss Lloyd. He is sick and I am not there to comfort him. :( Or get comfort from him. *sniff* I am pretty drained so...I have more to say but I need energy and time to sort my thoughts first.
Life is precious
I'm so happy that my mama is still alive!

About Me
- Denise Michele
- First I am a mom. I have six smart, beautiful, amazing children. In order of appearance: Holly, Taralyn, Heidi, Willow, Lukas and Naomi. I am the incredibly proud grandmother of Tiger Rae & Violet Dylan-thank you Holly! Careerwise-the economy has thrown me a curveball (I am not alone, I know). At first it was tough, now I am getting into my groove. We live on 5 acres off-grid with wood heat! I grew up in Palmer, Alaska. Deep rich topsoil and long, long summer days for incredible gardening & lots of outdoor fun. I've lived in Port Townsend for almost 13 years now. I really love it here, although I miss my huge, wacky Alaska family quite a bit. I started blogging just after the new year & I am enjoying it, both writing mine & reading others.
