Blogger Update: New Update from Madelaine

Madelaine just sent a new update on her health today.... 

Hola Y'all,

I've had two little set backs. I went back in the hospital twice. The first was a complete heart check. Things were fine. The second was to drain that lung again. I am now done with the radiation treatment. I am continuing to recover. It's funny in a way, I have now been on all floors of the hospital, and they all know me. I even got two cards from them, one from oncology, and one from cardiac floor. They called me the crazy Texan, too funny. My name may be Madelaine Fails, but Mads never Fails, how about that.

I feel so blessed for having Mr. Mads as my hubby, my wonder daughter Mia, the home nurses that come check on me, the physical therapists that work with me, and Y'all for being family to me and sending me all those wonderful cards, earworms, gift cards and to the person, you know who you are, who sent me Alborada, I thank you so much. God Bless you, your prayers, and warm feelings. I think of you everyday. 

Cheers,
Mads

  25. hELLO vIVI!!! iT'S BEEN A LONG TIME IT SEEMS. I've been away awhile and it's only of late that I was catching up mostly just reading your blogs. I just have to write this. I am so deeply surprised and concerned about our dear Madelaine. I am constantly praying for her and you when you mentioned about your surgery too. Hoping that both of y9ou will soon recover. I do believe that prayers work. Please tell her that I think of her all the time.
