We welcomed our new family, Chris, Yannis, with Amélie, our grand-niece, now a busy 19 months old. It took place in late February, just after a furnace failure (fixed!) and just before the latest of our 24-hour blizzards.
In June, my wife got to visit Cape Cod for the 50th Reunion of her Band (not a band like the ‘Eagles’ or ‘Rolling Stones,’ but her Class at the Sisters of Charity - Halifax).
In late July, she had emergency surgery, while I developed a flare-up of vertigo.
Since then, it has been a matter of ‘getting better.’
This New Year’s Eve, we can report that we’re both recovering (slowly) from our overlapping medical problems: she from a total hysterectomy, with later complications; and I from another bout of vertigo.
Our respective medical care over the last five months has been First Class, and ‘people care’ from friends has been great, too.
Amélie provides HER daily dose of cheering up - as we all work on our Spanish, French and English, sometimes each in the same sentence!
Christmas Eve, Mama captured a photo (above) as she was 'helping' decorate our tree.
Thanks to all for your prayers and support.
From our family to your family, we wish:
¡Feliz Navidad y próspero año nuevo!
Joyeux Noël et Bonne et Heureuse Année !
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
