One year after the big crisis. HAPPY EASTER

Last year on April 4, Doug's heart stopped beating and he went to the ICU and on a ventilator. That was a harrowing time for sure. A year later we have nothing but good news to report. Doug is doing great; he has made a wonderful recovery from the pancreatitis. His eating habits have changed for the better -- no more fatty junk food -- and his attitude is great too.

 On April 13, we go to Denver to see Dr. Mattous, Doug's transplant doc, for the one year post transplant check-up. Doug has already had the requisite blood tests, x-rays, etc. We expect a good report.

Tomorrow is Easter and we will be with our son and extended family in Denver. Life is good!

Father God, on this Easter, help us all to have a joyous heart and a thankful spirit. We praise you for the abundance of your gifts.

I am posting a photo of our beautiful Mt. Princeton. We drove 5 minutes from our house to take it. I love the snow on the mountain tops, but am glad that the "town snow" has melted.

Love to all.
