News from Seveen & Witchy Ooman.....

[WitchyOoman]

Fi'unnu that don't already know it, Seveen's mother passed last week. She lived a few minutes away from me.

Seveen and I linked Friday - thanks to Laurel and Nanook, who lent helping hands - and we gave Seveen's mom a fine send-off.

We had what Seveen terms "a real Jamaican wake". The neighbors cooked the repast after the funeral service, and the tables were groaning under the weight of chicken, rice and peas, cook-up, tossed salad, potato salad, biscuits, and plenty of desserts.

One neighor brought homemade sorrel, another brought Appleton's. Mista Witchy and I brought 21-year aged Appleton's and some other good stuff.

But the best of all was the opportunity for Seveen and har son and har cousin and Mr Witchy and I to all get together and get to know each other. We all think this her mother's parting gift.

Mr Witchy's car left us stranded at the funeral home after the service... a neighbor of mine came to get us and take us back to my house, where my trusty ole Babycakes carried us around. Trust a 30-yr-old American-made Oldsmobile Cutlass Brougham over a rice-burner Nissan Maxima any day... trust me! lol
<span style="font-size: 8pt"><span style="font-style: italic">(<span style="font-style: italic">never mind that the &quot;American-made&quot; Olds Cutty is really a North American Canadian-made and the rice-burner Nissan maxima is reallhy made in the USA</span>)</span></span>


Seveen hasn't got Internet, so she asked me to post how she's doing.

Re: News from Seveen &amp; Witchy Ooman.....


Abu is the sweetest boy I've known in a long time!
He's a good kid.

Fiesty, true -- but he's just a boy his age, that's all.


They're all coping... and Seveen's mom's neighbors are all lovely folks! They've done so much for Seveen and her family.

It's obvious that her mom is gonna be badly missed at her residence.

I've had 12 spinal surgeries. if I never see an O.R. again, I'll be happy...

I'm walking again, with a quad cane. But my balance is bad and I have almost no stamina for walking ..... or even just standing for long.
Even so - I'm out of the wheelchair and off the scooter (for the most part).

I'm still in constant pain.

My choices are to live like this, or to live with a pain pump surgically installed... but that precludes my being in control of my body and whaat meds it is given. The pump does it's job on a regular biofeedback basis, but it doesn't have any care for whether or not I need to avoid the morphine or other meds for a specific time and purpose.

I prefer not to be a human vegetable who is controlled by a pump machine.

Thank you so much Witchy for posting about how Seveen and Abu are doing. They have been in my thoughts and prayers through this past week. I'm so glad you were all able to get together and it sounds as though you are making the best of a hard time for Seveen and Abu!

Condolences to Seveen.


Hi Witchy, I've been thinking about you and Mr. Witchy all along.

Sorry to hear of your illness, but glad to know that you are out the chair. I pray that your health will improve as the days go by...one day at a time. Say Hi to Mr. Witchy for me.

Good night, unnu.

Seveen and I didn't link today, our timing was off. She slept late, I had a 6:30pm business meeting with the pastor of a local church who just moved into their first 'own' building, she was sleeping again when I got out of that meeting at 8:30pm.

I just spoke to her, though, and I'm bringing her breakfast tomorrow morning. She may not be going home just yet. And no - I'm not holding her hostage. BOAL
She has to get certain things done that had to wait for Monday morning and business hours.

It's all just catching up with her, I think. It's all hitting her now. She's (understandably) saddened and 'down'... but she's strong, she'll be okay.

Mr Witchy and I cleared our calendar for tomorrow, so we can help her finish.

I have, and will continue, to pass all of your well-wishes on to her while she's here.

Re: News from Seveen &amp; Witchy Ooman.....

Witchy ... so good that you and your husband were able to link with Seveen and her family.

She spoke so highly of the time she was able to spend with you ...
