Goiters and Such

Hi children – Some good news, and sorry to say some bad news: Grandma from Florida had more stents today. I was told everything went well. Aunt Rhoda is going to a doctor today to have her nodules checked on her goiter. Your cousin Justine was put in a mental hospital. I just heard she had a nervous breakdown because Dave told her he doesn’t love her any more, and he has another girlfriend. She was begging him to take her back. Grandpa Morty probably has to go to a nursing home because he keeps falling.
Love you both.
Mom

  Oh, now that I reread it I think it’s that Grandma’s stents went OK. Still, it’s hard to tell!

  Maybe the “Love you both” is the good news! :-)

Maybe Dave’s departure was the good news? Or his joyful announcement that he’s moving forward with a new girlfriend? It’s hard to say. That’s as close to good news as I could see in there.

Love, Mom
