Hi Ann,
I don't know if you've noticed that my e-mails have fallen off lately,
almost entirely in fact.? I know this is answering one of your messages from
quite a while ago, but I wanted to get in touch with you quickly and this
was the quickest way.? My oldest daughter, Kim, who is forty-three years
old,?had a major heart attack this past Thursday and when we got her into the
hospital by ambulance, they also discovered that she has very progressed
diabetes to the point they have to put her on insulin shots immediately.?
Added to that is they also discovered that she has extremely high blood
pressure.? They ended up placing two stents (spelling ?) in the one of the main
arteries in her heart as it was 100% blocked.?
This means some recovery time for her, of course.? I wanted to get this to
you ASAP too, because my trip down to Indiana during the dates I talked to
you about, is now in question.? I'll have to keep you posted as we go
along here.? I am getting ready to pick her up from the hospital in a couple of
hours this morning--------will write again as soon as I can get some kind
of handle on things.??
To any of you?who are prayer warriors, please pray for her recovery and
her health overall, and that she can by some miracle adapt easily to all the
things that are going to have to change in her life now.??
Fondly,
Barb?

This will be great. It has been such fun to reconnect with so many from
the class of 1959. It will make seeing everyone that much more special.
Thanks,

Subject: Ottawa '59 Email List
The private emails I received indicated that a discussion list for the
1959 Ottawa grads would be useful to eliminate the cc list.
There are 79 of us on the list - if you have email addresses for others
you think might not be on, send them to me in private email.
To post to the list, you can either hit "reply" or send the post
to:
ohhs59@venus.soci.niu.edu
(NOTE: Careful when you hit the return key that you don't send out a
private not to everybody)
If you want to be removed from the list, let me know in private email.
A few people have suggested a temporary homepage for putting up names,
email addresses of those who want to share them, reunion details, maybe
scanned pages of our year book pictures from 1959, links to homepages
that some of might already have, Facebook invitations, and
anything else that would be fun. I can put up something primitive and
quick if a homepage sounds useful, but if anybody wants to volunteer to
design something, let me know.
If there's interest in keeping it all going after the reunion, we can do
something more permanent.
Jim
