Auntie Lissa Visits....

Auntie Lissa has been visiting and staying with us all week. She is one of Mommy's best friends that now lives in Oklahoma. She had to come home because her brother which we know very well was in the hospital. He just found out that he has an acoustic neuroma which is basically a growth on his brain that's been getting bigger and bigger for probably the last 20 years. He had passed out and was rushed to the hospital and that's how they found out. Thank goodness! He had to have brain surgery to remove it and has been recovering very nicely. They got 90% of it and will get the rest with radiation. He should be just fine. It was great to see Lissa but under such terrible circumstances. We're just glad that Shaun is recovering and came out of surgery just fine. Too bad his wedding that was all planned for in Las Veges in the next couple of weeks had to be postponed. It was great having Lissa with us. We went out to dinner with old friends and even caught an Angel game for her since she's a big fan! Makayla bonded with her Auntie like you wouldn't believe! We miss her dearly already! Come home again soon!
Makayla and her Auntie Lissa!
