Update on my sister-in-law's stroke

Two Saturdays ago, I stopped at the city park

after attending one of my grandson's basketball games.

The sun was out and though the air was slightly nippy,

it was a beautiful day to stroll along the pond and take photos of the ducks.

This guy though, came after me. 

I had been there long enough that I guess he thought I owed him bread.

He was persistent.

I was hesitant.

He walked forward.

I walked backward.

I backed a safe distance away and headed back to my car.

I had enough pictures.

An update:

Thank you to those who have prayed for my sister-in-law.

She has been home this past week.

Her doctor forbid her to drive or to work.

She is going a bit stir-crazy.

This week she goes back to two doctors.

One is supposedly setting up a consultation at Ohio State University Hospital.

He is perplexed as to why she had a lacunar stroke at the age  of 55.

Robyn is not obese and does not have exceedingly high blood pressure.

She is a heavy smoker and drinker, but those aren't necessarily factors in this type of stroke.

A lacunar stroke is when small blood vessels burst causing a stroke

that scares the patient, but does not hinder any body functions.

She had no effects from it such as paralysis, etc.

She is still in need of prayer.

I have my second evaluation today.

I chose my biggest class and a topic I've not taught before:

intro to Of Mice and Men.

That's what kept coming up in my head.

so I 'went with it'.

The alternative was freshmen OGT practice work

and since I don't like that stuff, I was hesitant to be evaluated on it.

(OGTs --Ohio Graduation Test---are next week with the sophomores taking the real tests

and the freshmen taking practice tests.)

I am also facing several boys who have been especially disruptive.

They are not in the class in which I will be evaluated;

however, they can upset me and I don't need that today.

So please lift us up today.

Blessings to you all as you begin your week.
