Birthday Fun

Peggy had a fabulous birthday yesterday with lots of visitors, calls, cards, balloons, flowers, and fun. Her eyes were giving her lots of trouble in the morning but cleared up a bit by afternoon and evening. We had a small gathering with the Seglers, my mom, the kids, Marvel and Pat Lokatos...Peggy had lots of visitors...Lulu and Todd, Fatima, Joyce and Jan, Betsy, Andy with her dog Hoku in tow (Hoku shares a birthday with Peggy - she turned 14 yesterday or 98 in human years!)

Ty also came by last night and brought some new "eye bubbles" to tape over Peggy's eyes. You just spray a little defogger into the bubbles and then put them over Peggy's eyes. Hanna found that it you need to tape them to keep them on right. This creates a little moisture bubble around Peggy's eye which should help protect them and keep them from getting so irritated. Peggy calls them "eye-quariums"!

Peggy's eyes have really the been the only issue lately. Her doc visit today was very short - not much to report. This past Saturday Ed the dentist came by with Dr. Jon Yoshimura who was named Hawaii's dentist of the year a couple of years ago. They took photos of Peggy's mouth and teeth. Dr. Yoshimura would like to come back in the next week or two and make a custom mouth guard for Peggy to wear when she is being moved, like rolled for Hoyer or percussion. They also flossed and cleaned her teeth which she loves.

I am so glad you had a great birthday with family and friends. Too bad distances are so great or we would flitter over to spank your bottom 61 times! Remember when we were kids, we would get wrestled down and spanked along with a "pinch to grow an inch". Anyway, happy birthday!
