Welcome to Kate's Circle of Friends Blog

Thanks for the various emails I have already received & we'll look forward to seeing many of you at our place next Wednesday.

Here's a thought for our agenda-

names and phone numbers for all of us

When do we start? Kate thinks it's going to be a long haul & thus we start after her surgery, whenever that is. Ann and I think they'd be glad for some suppers now (thanks to the many who have already been doing this)

Getting everyone on the calendar

Food restrictions, we'll go over them, but here they are:
Please do not cook with onion, garlic, mushrooms or legumes. Regular beans like wax beans and green beans are ok, but beans like lentils, kidney beans, soy beans- and therefore tofu- all should be avoided. Kate loves them all, but these items make her itch!

Odds & ends like using disposable pans or labeling pans, setting up a drop off place on their porch (if she's at an appt or sleeping),posting to the blog, whether we have other things like driving or cleaning

That's all I can think of. Feel free to start adding to this right away with things to include on our agenda, other ideas... anything.

Looking forward to seeing everyone who can make it on Wednesday at 6pm.

thanks all,
Susan

Hi All,

I'm Kate's sister in Arizona. This is so sweet of you to help her during this difficult time. Thank you.

I can't make the Wednesday meeting but my thoughts will be with you.

I am arranging my work schedule so I can head East and take care of Katie and Rich for a week or so after her surgery should that be needed.

My love and thanks to all of you for your care of my sister.

The Arizona contingent.
Mary
