Partly due to exhaustion from the hospital fatigue and partly because I've felt bad about not being well enough to comment much on other folks' blogs. <br /><br />Thank you so much for your kind comment in regards to my impending surgery. I know that maintaining a sense of humour has helped immensely. Indeed, knowing that the spirit of Penny watches over my son and I, has been of magical comfort. <br /><br />Thank you, Joylene, my amazing friend.<br /><br />Gary klahaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08613505424843475639noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4219984917795758890.post-77470840735510952992020-02-10T15:44:30.143+00:002020-02-10T15:44:30.143+00:00Strangely, I'm happy your comment app is back ...Strangely, I'm happy your comment app is back on. For some weird reason I'm comforted knowing I can jot a note to you. Best of success with your impending surgery. I'm glad you're doing okay. I know you miss Penny terribly, but I think she's watching over you. Take care, dear friend.

I understand how much you miss your beloved Patches as my son and I greatly miss our beloved Penny. They get into your hearts and stay there.<br /><br />It's been a most daunting week. Yet, despite it all, I remain positive and thankful they discovered that lump on my kidney. If I had not gone back to hospital in regards to other issues, I'd of been none the wiser.<br /><br />The idiot that attacked me got 26 months. <br /><br />Bless you, Yolanda.<br /><br />Gary x klahaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08613505424843475639noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4219984917795758890.post-36855852196849319282019-12-10T20:31:29.648+00:002019-12-10T20:31:29.648+00:00What a wonderful coincidence, but sweet Penny, her...What a wonderful coincidence, but sweet Penny, her loss cuts deep.

I still can't believe such a loving creature had to leave this planet. Well, one day we will, too... WAIT, BLUE! Let's keep things light today! OK, so it's been way too long since we last spoke. Just so you know, I haven't forgotten about you sir. Be good, okay?
