Aller wedding

I just wanted to announce that I will be marrying the love of my life on May 6, 2006 here in Southlake, Texas.  Her name is Tiffany Ann Lewis and she is a single child from Scranton, Pennsylvania.  She is 25 years old and works in a corporate headquarters of a orthopedic equipment company.  She basically does financials to attempt to get doctors to sell their products. 

 

We met about 15 months ago and have been engaged since August 2005.  We will make home in Irving, TX. 

 

Life is but a wave in the Ocena of Time...

 

 

Take care all,

Update by Bev again-- HAPPY EASTER

Hi everyone,

HAPPY EASTER EVERYONE -- we hope you have a very blessed day.  :-)

 

Mom received some chocolates, flowers, and a little stuffed lamb from the easter bunnies so far. 

Mom is on oxygen all the time now, as her breathing scores were not too  good.  We are always excited to see family stop by here.  Wayne, Thelma, and Ginny stopped by the other day, and Uncle Evan stopped by yesterday.  It is always great to see everyone when you get a chance to stop by.  We need a call first though, as sometimes there are doctor's appointments, or we are resting.  Her doctor says that mom's heart, and everything else is good, and she has gained weight.  The dementia has come on so fast though that we have to constantly remind her of most things she wants, or has to do.  She seems to be able to read Mike's postcards when he sends them, yet we can't tell if she understands what he is saying in them.  She definitely gets frustrated with the oxygen line that followers her around, and she keeps trying to roll it up all the time.  She was started on Aricept this last week, which is the medicine for the beginning of Alzheimers, so between this, and the oxygen, we are hoping for an improvement in her thinking, etc..  I'm still trying to move my stuff in from my house, which is a slow process, and will be selling the house as soon as possible.  I'm waiting for the best offer right now.  We are also trying to get mom's house clean of dust, etc., and trying to clean one room at a time to get the old smoke off of drapes, etc.....  This is quite exhausting between everything, and the girls working.  I am also still selling gems on Ebay, and am now registering products on the Internet for the other company Naomi works for, and will get paid $10.00 an hour, so we all are kept quite busy with everything around to do.  Mom does not like to go any where -- hard enough to get her to go to the doctor.  Any kind of change at all sends her into a panic, so we try to keep things as routine as possible here for her.  We try to keep the confusion at a minimum here. I keep trying to get mom to let me cut her hair, yet she doesn't want anyone to mess with her like that, so I will just wait. I did get to weed her garden, and clear all the leaves, etc., out, so that she can see her beautiful flowers as they come up.  We are planning on having someone take care of the yards though, and trim her bushes out front, etc...  I cleaned and straightened out the garage yesterday, so it would look nice, and so we could park mom's car back in there as well.  Guess I better end for now -- have more emails with updates to write to other family members.

You all are in our hearts and prayers always -- Love to you all.

Bev  

Have A Happy Easter
