Night time is the darkest, but the most sacred. I will give a peek into this Mama’s heart that is in agony as I cut the final string of my firstborn child. Kari is seeing that distant shore for which she will be boarding that ship coming for her. I can only watch and waitContinue reading “The ship is coming”

For anyone nearby who wishes to share food, it would be helpful to do it through the following link. Knowing our community, this will help alleviate the fear that we will receive too much food (Haha). https://mealtrain.com/5l1eow
Journey’s End
Kari has been in many hard places. Over and over, she has come through life-threatening illnesses. This time, she will not recover. For weeks, there have been signs that are clear to us now. In the heart of covid, we nearly lost her, but God brought her through and gave her five more years ofContinue reading “Journey’s End”
The Show is On!
Matthew had a great first day of drama camp and last night we learned he has been cast into two roles: Professor Ray and Gill. Neither are lead roles, but they are both leadership roles (fish who are in charge of others) and that suits Matthew very well. He has many lines and solo portionsContinue reading “The Show is On!”
Matthew on Stage? Eye update.
Matthew might be cast as a pelican, a sting ray, or even a shark. If so, maybe you might want to see his debut in a role within that deep blue world – coming to the stage this Saturday morning at 11:00. First, I (Ron) want to update you on my eyesight. I last informedContinue reading “Matthew on Stage? Eye update.”

Light at the end of the tunnel
As a kid, I thought tunnels were neat, especially the tunnels on the PA Tpk. The surprise of the Blue Mountain was that, after exiting, in just 600’ we entered a second tunnel, under the Kittatinny Mountain. And these are long tunnels – .82 miles and .89 miles respectively. As Joan wrote, the recovery fromContinue reading “Light at the end of the tunnel”
The “Eyes” have it!
Not much voting going on in the Denlinger home and not much blogging either. Not because nothing is happening- quite the opposite. One knows he is getting older when he focuses on body parts. Ron and I both are noticing wear and tear on these aging ‘tents’ of ours. But suffice to say, today’s writingContinue reading “The “Eyes” have it!”
Gene (jean) Day
Today, the last day of February, is Rare Disease Day. I (Ron) suppose the date is so chosen because “Thirty days hath September…” (you know the Mother Goose rhyme). In case you forgot about Rare Disease Day, don’t feel badly. Had our friend Bethany not written us today, we probably would have missed it, evenContinue reading “Gene (jean) Day”
Getting Back to Normal
Joan continues to recover from whatever that was. She asked me (Ron) to give an update since she is busy watching Elia downstairs while I’m keeping an ear out for Lucy who is sleeping (our granddaughters) and for Kari who is by the vaporizer. Kari isn’t sick, we’re just doing things to help keep herContinue reading “Getting Back to Normal”
