Read MorePrayers for my helper Tammy Marsh who is having surgery this morning on her shoulder and rotator cuff, and for my helper Beth Miller who is picking up some extra chores. May has been difficult as every person associated with GreeneStreets as well as all of my (adult) children and I have faced down some type of challenging situation but we’re all survivors and persevere. When I had my first appointment with the new hand specialist, I felt like I’d landed in the right place when they asked for x-rays first thing - nobody else bothered. No broken bones! Tomorrow I go in for a test on all the nerves in my arm and hand to determine the location and severity of the injury. So I’ll be away from my computer for a time today and tomorrow but Halea’s back and we’ve got a lot of catch-up to do. Looking forward to June and all of us getting back on track. Thank you all for being a reader/subscriber!
