Good news!

Good news today. Bonnie Henchbarger Powell was discharged from
Altoona Hospital late yesterday afternoon. They have added more medication to her daily routine and, hopefully, that will prevent any future episodes or seizures.
For those who would consider sending her a "Thinking of You" card, her home address is:
1203 Family Lane
Clearfield, PA 16830
Also, regarding Patty Kinkead Cutler, her husband, "Woody", was transferred from Altoona to the DuBois Regional Medical Center to begin his therapy and rehab. Please keep both families in your prayers.

Updates on two of our classmates

Bonnie Henchbarger Powell is a patient in the Altoona Hospital. She suffered a seizure last Saturday morning at her home and was rushed to Altoona for further testing. Please send cards for her to Altoona Hospital, Room 1167A, 620 Howard Ave., Altoona, PA 16601. Her husband, Ed, will keep me updated and I'll let our classmates know of any further news about her condition.
Also, another classmate, Patricia Kinkead Cutler, has her husband, Willard ("Woody") at the same facility. He had open heart surgery last week and is waiting to be transferred to the DuBois Rehab Unit of DuBois Hospital. Patty's home address is 276 Bowmans Hill Road, Clearfield, PA 16830. She is still working at the Clfd. Co. Vo-Tech and plans to retire this coming June. Her e-mail address at work is pcutler@ccctc.org. I'll report again when I have more news.
