    Update text from Lisa's daughter 8:35 p.m. PST

    "I saw her and talked to her and things were fine. Then had two primarily facial seizures while I was with her but the docs say it's normal. Having trouble speaking now but aware of what's going on. Still in recover. ICU is full but will get next bed."

    Thank the Lord she made it through surgery. A very long surgery at that. I image that will be it for tonight but I will keep you posted as I find things out.

    Lasted update from Lisa's daughter, 12:10 p.m. today.

    "With her now in ICU. MUCH better than after the seizures last night. Able to communicate, ask and answer questions, but choosing words is a challenge."

    She was up eating jello at 3:30 today. MRI was pending schedule opening. I am not sure when she will be home but I wouldn't expect her before the week-end.

    I'm so glad her mind is ok, evem if her speech isn't yet. That was what she was most worried about.

    Yeah Lisa!!!!!!!!

    And Brenda - thanks for the updates.

    Lisa was in PT today and walking. They may release her tomorrow but it is not for sure. I don't know if she is going home or to some place in LA. They lowered her dose of Decadron and we all know how happy that is making her.

    My 40 year old son played baseball in a tournament today at Tony Gwynn Stadium at SDSU

    I had never been there, but I must admit days of old "Little League" passed through my mind..

    he is the catcher for the blue team..

    I can do the 26th or August 2. I am working almost every Saturday right now. Busy season. The boys are going to work with dh and hanging out in our motorhome. If a Saturday works better with everyone go ahead and plan it. If I can come I will.

    I am up for the 26th, NO PROBLEM, as long as my dear Lisa e-mails me.  I am such a loon.  I can't remember anything anymore.

    But I love you all and I can come.

    Hugs, Shirl

    Umm, we have Sammy's, or California Pizza Kitchen (kinda small), or the Cheesecake Factory, or Appleby's, Bennigan's, Baja Fresh (again, kinda small) or a very nice King's Fish Restaurant, that is if everyone likes fish, they do have a few other things.

    There is a brewery restaurant right across the street, hmmm, we went there once.  Gordon Biersch?  And of course, Mimi's, but I don't think they take reservations, but I can call them 1/2 hour before we want to come.  It is nice.

    Hugs, Shirl

    Hello all--Sorry but won't be able to make July's get together ---we are finally going to take our vacation that was originally scheduled for May--husband has been working real hard on his recovery from shoulder surgery and have rented the condo --so things have quieted down!

    Going to visit my aunt in Denver on 7/24-8/2 to relax and see some sites! Also may get to see a nephew/his wife and two children who live near---

    Catch you all in Aug--and I will post for Lisa!

    xo,

    Sylvia
