This is my Mom & Dad & me right after my last heart surgery. Look at that smile! It is amazing 2 me that I had such a GREAT smile after all I had just been thru. I guess I was just happy that it was over with.

The picture below is my cardiologist (heart dr) who performed my surgeries. He died sadly in a car accident. His name was Dr. Robert Allen. Thank U 2 Dr. Emmett Bell my pediatric diagnostician 4 giving me this photo of Dr. Allen. He was a very dedicated surgeon. He slept on the floor by bed in intensive care that night 2 make sure I lived thru the night.

When I went back 4 my last pediatric heart catherization the nurses told me that "Dr. Allen was one of the most dedicated surgeons they had ever known. That he never left his patients until he knew they were out of danger."

My surgeries were @ LeBonheur Children's Hospital in Memphis, TN. It is now called LeBonheur Children's Medical Center. I don't know when the name occurred.

I like this picture of Dr. Allen 4 2 reasons. It shows his hands. It shows the model plastic heart that he used 2 show U what he was going 2 do in surgery.

Thank U 4 reading my blog! I hope U r having a GREAT wkend. Ace :)

Lookin back at my High School days! Yes, I did graduate from WCA! Westminster Christian Academy. I had 2 say Romans 8 to graduate 2! The whole chapter by memory! It wasn't easy either. This is so the whole world can see! This was my casual photo. Those class mates of mine voted 2 put the formal pictures in the yrbook. I was feeling bad the day they took the formal ones & mine were awful! So ha now I have MY OWN BLOG & I can post the picture I want. Thank you very much! I still luv ya'll even if I did not get my casuals in the yrbook. When our yrbook came out my junior yr there were A LOT of pictures of me in it! Ha! I did not think it was that many but my friend Connie did. She asked why? It was b/c a certain someone on the yrbook staff had a crush on me was HER conclusion! Ha! LOL I might post that picture 2 if ur lucky! LOL I hope ya'll r having a GREAT day! God bless ya!

I have people on my FB who speak different languages. I always thought it would be marvelous 2 speak a different language. It is soooo difficult 4 me 2 learn. I want 2 learn French. The 2nd language in America is Spanish. We have a lot of products that have things written on them in different languages 4 those who do not speak English!

When LL (my husband) & I went 2 Montreal, Canada everything there is in French & English! It was sooo neat. Even the McDonald's signs were in French 2! My brother, Mitch, who has passed away spoke 5 languages fluently. When he went 2 UAH (University of Alabama in Huntsville) as a freshman he was tutoring SENIORS. He was very brilliant! His French professor said, "They had NEVER had anyone come thru there department that was so fluent in sooo many different languages." She said, "My brother spoke more proper French than most French people she knew." LOL

In High School Jonathan Graham, (my neighborhood friend) Mitch, & I took Latin! This was b/f WCA (4 my WCA friends). Jonathan & I just could not get it. We were sooo bored in that class so we started writing notes. The teacher caught us & sat us out in the hall as punishment. I find that humorous b/c we just sat out there & talked! LOL It just fixed it where we didn't have 2 pass notes. Ha! Anyway Mitch made a A of course. I think Jon & I were transfered into another class. Phew!

This is my FAVORITE picture of my brother Mitch!
