This is the first time I've written in this book since 1975. I'm going to relate the situation we have at home since my father is having surgery this day. Cliff and Jean Netherton came down Sunday and my grandmother came also. We had a pleasant evening. Kelly called her friend Jeff to come over this morning. he said he'd be here. But his morning I was awakened at 3:00 because my mother was up getting ready to go to the hospital. jean and Cliff went with her. my grandmother is going with my uncle bob who will pick her up at 9:00. She doesn't want to go now because Ross is her baby. She was ll crying and upset along with Kelly. More later. Approx. 7:00 am.
