Happy Birthday, Anvilhead!!

For those that don't know, Anvil (Tess) is still with Hank and Bucky-the-dog in WI, as her FIL is dying of cancer. They will be back home this weekend.

She is unable to get on SR, but is e-mailing me on her phone. She is very grateful for all the hugs and prayers from SR people, and I'm sure today is hard on her...celebrating her life, but watching someone she loves die, so I thought we could send her some good thoughts.

Tess...you've been one of my greatest gifts of recovery. I luv ya, miss seeing on SR, and I hope you find it in you to celebrate what a wonderful person you are!

Hugs and prayers!

Anvil!
Although you're facing all these challenges in your life right now, I hope you can take some time for herself to enjoy your birthday.

Unfortunately, her day is not starting out so well (BTW it's her and Hank's anniversary, too).

They pulled the chest tube on FIL, lung collasped and he is now in surgery. Hank and Tess were planning on heading back home tomorrow, but don't know about that now.

She did ask me to thank everyone and to keep the good thoughts coming.

Hugs and prayers!

Happy Birthday Anvil (and Hank too)

Additional hugs and prayers to you and Hank and the family. How blessed you are, and Hank's family, that you both made the life-choice to truly be there, in every sense! A gift to cherish on your birthdays.
