DONNA TIME!

Time for a Donna update:

As most of you know, my dear wife, Donna, suffered another fall several months back and broke her left arm, and then not long after, experienced another stumble and broke her right hip. Surgery was completed for each, and Donna's Magik-al/Power Girl endurance (abetted by persistent, arduous therapy) has pulled her through, to the point that she's but a hop and a skip from being as good as new, maybe even better than before. Amazing! Astounding! But that's Donna for you. If ever she falters, you can bet your bottom dollar, she's gonna rebound. 

For now, Donna spends most days engaging in her favorite hobby, cooking and baking. In fact, she's conjuring so many tasty dishes that we often have more than we need and as such, share away. 

At any rate, Donna wants you to know that she appreciates your many compassionate cards, letters and emails. They're what keeps her motivated, and that strength filters through me. For that, we exclaim, God bless you one and all! 

STATUS REPORT: MAGIK-AL DONNA

Folks have requested a new update on Donna, and so I now offer this splendid status report.

She continues to do well, and yes, she's walking about and going to her sessions (conversing with skilled, congenial professionals) to make certain that her cognition is sharp. (This fall, she'll only visit the clinic four times a week.) Even so, she has her ups and downs, like any of us do, but it's through her fighting spirit that she improves. In my eyes, she is a marvel-ous Magik equivalent, mutating her way from a bad state to a good one. It's a joyful thing to behold. 

However, she still has some of the same old detractors, including that prevalent coward from a neighboring state, who once dismissed Donna as worthless and doomed (alas, he did rear his head again, albeit in an more-or-less indirect, but no less irritating way). The difference between Donna and that spineless boob is that my wife has a real obstacle to overcome, whereas he's little more than a veritable fraud, wrought with jealousy and the inability to mend his callous flaws. 

With that petulant statement made, I must again express thanks to those who've shown compassion to us these past months. Your kindness is akin to a coveted pot at the rainbow's end, and as you all know, compassion is worth far more than any sum of gold.  

CHEERS TO MY POWER GIRL, DONNA

Cheers to my Power Girl, Donna, who received another biff-bang-pow! outcome for yet another physical. 

As always, her courage proved the key to hitting the bullseye, and boy, did she ever hit it big time.

May Donna's Power Girl vantage continue to soar in awesome leaps and bounds!!! ❤❤❤

DONNA IS FINE AGAIN!!!

Folks have asked for an update on my Power Girl wife, Donna. Well, I decided to wait until her latest, doctor's appointment to do so, and I'm pleased to report, she's doing fine. Of course, she (like so many heroic types) still has her quirks, but she's more on a super level than not. For that, I'm most thankful. I know Donna is, too. 

Cheers to my Power Girl, Donna!!! And thank you all for your gracious consideration and support!!!

DONNA TRIUMPHANT AGAIN!!!

I wish to thank all who've requested updates on my wife, Donna. She's doing well. This has been confirmed per two recent doctors' appointments. She'll just need a minor operation in the near future, but nothing to fret over.  

Please be aware that your kindness and understanding is precious to us. It eases the pain sprung from those who've found cause to make consistent, insensitive remarks regarding Donna's plight. (It's amazing how selfish and cruel some people can be.) Thank goodness Donna and I have distanced ourselves from those derisive detractors, while placing our true friends ever closer to our hearts. 

In this respect, I give special thanks to Donna's dear compatriot, Stacia, who has been there over the long haul to lend an empathetic ear, in addition to treating my wife to many lovely lunches. (Stacia is featured in the photo above, on the right.)

Rest assured, Donna will continue to apply her Power Girl mindset to any given circumstance. Because of your hearty support, she's gained the required motivation to continue fighting the good fight and is certain to emerge triumphant time and again. 

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, DONNA (2020)!!!

HIP HIP HOORAY TO DONNA FOR FIGHTING THE GOOD FIGHT!!! 

WHILE OTHERS COWER, YOU STAND UP AND SWING!!! WHILE OTHERS CRITICIZE AND MOCK, YOU TRIUMPH AND WIN!!!

HERE'S WISHING YOU A POWER GIRL OF A BIRTHDAY!!! (I'M SO DARN PROUD OF YOU!!!)

DONNA TRIUMPHANT!!!

Up, up...and away to my gorgeous wife, Donna, for another tip-top bill of health!!!

I'm proud as a peacock of your consistent courage and all that you've achieved. You're a steadfast Power Girl in every single way.  

HAIL, DONNA, MY POWER GIRL SPOUSE!!!

Here I am again (and without an iota of apology) to praise my gorgeous wife, Donna for another bright bill of health. That's not to say that all is indefectible (hey, who can ever make that claim?), but Donna has achieved progress in ways that others can only imagine or when enmity rears its envious head, deride. 

The cause of dear Donna's success--courage. Some will scoff at that. Donna and I know folks who've belittled, downplayed and ignored her plight, all the while flaunting cowardice as their brazen badge. (Generally, their excuse is some faux, psychiatric label to rationalize their slothful phlegm; meanwhile, they're eager to work under the table and collect off the taxpayer's dime. How bold.) I'm damn proud of my spouse for being an adamant exception to that popular, craven rule: my real-life Power Girl through and through. 

Congratulations, my love, from the bottom of my heart. May this be but another high point in a long, indefatigable series. And to those insensitive shammers itchin' to judge, do us a favor: Go quiver under some dark, slimy rock. Donna WILL continue to reside within the warm winner's circle, pleased that her prize was won legitimately and straight from the heart.
