Good News! Harlene is home and trying to rest, even though this is hard for her. She is not able to cook, drive or shop, and will be living on her couch right now. SO many of you have asked how you can help out and I have started a meal train. Please sign up if you want to have a date to bring a meal. We want to space this out and she will enjoy left overs or a simple sandwich and snacks and fruit. Tomorrow is taken care of in the evening, so please look at other days. Do not feel obligated but know the simpliest of things is always appreciated. She is very happy to have visitors. She is still a bit groggy, but will be ok in a few weeks. Please click the link below. I hope it works. Thanks so much, Sheri Leiken https://mealtrain.com/3l227y
