Some of you may have not yet heard of the latest news<br \/>\nof my situation. I come to my home state, Wisconsin, over a month ago,<br \/>\nto help take care of my parents. My Dad had esophagus cancer which<br \/>\ntook his life from us last June 19th.<\/p>\n<p>I am still here in Wisconsin to take care of my Mom who has<br \/>\nAlzheimer&#8217;s disease. There are some difficult decisions that my<br \/>\nsisters and I need to make throughout of all this. At this time we are<br \/>\ndoing fine. There is no way of knowing when I will return to TX. Yes,<br \/>\nI miss you all bunches and appreciate our support.<\/p>\n<p>I want to thank the DAD board for doing their best in keeping DAD<br \/>\nclubhouse up and running during my long absence. It has been a<br \/>\nlearning experience for some of them. Please do give them our &#8220;HIGH<br \/>\nHAND WAVES&#8221;!<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s awesome when I learned that so many people came on July 4th and<br \/>\nhad a wonderful time and enjoyed the potluck dinner. I believe that<br \/>\nthis is a great way to gather and celebrate! Preston, my husband, and<br \/>\nI were able to watch the fireworks in my hometown in our car. Why in<br \/>\nthe car? Well since we had so much rain and flood there were plenty of<br \/>\nmosquitoes out there that they could suck us up dry!<\/p>\n<p>Allow me to share DAD&#8217;s upcoming events which you may want to attend:<\/p>\n<p>July 11, Friday &#8211; North Texas Deaf Poker League (8:00 PM)<\/p>\n<p>July 18, Friday &#8211; DAD General Members meeting (7:30 PM)<\/p>\n<p>July 19, Saturday &#8211; Dallas Black Deaf Advocates meeting (3:00 PM)<\/p>\n<p>July 19, Saturday &#8211; CINGO (8:30 PM)<\/p>\n<p>July 25, Friday &#8211; Movie Night: &#8220;Pursuit for Happiness&#8221; PG-13 (7:30<br \/>\nPM)<\/p>\n<p>August 2, Saturday &#8211; North Texas Deaf Poker League Final (4:00 PM)<\/p>\n<p>August 6, Wednesday &#8211; Tejas Senior Citizens Gathering<\/p>\n<p>August 15, Friday &#8211; DAD General Members meeting (7:30 PM)<\/p>\n<p>August 16, Saturday &#8211; Dallas Black Deaf Advocates meeting (3:00 PM)<\/p>\n<p>August 16, Saturday &#8211; CINGO (8:30 PM)<\/p>\n<p>August 29, Friday &#8211; Movie Night: TBA (7:30 PM)<\/p>\n<p>Check our website: http:\/\/www.dallasdeafclub.org<br \/>\n.<\/p>\n<p>DADly yours,<\/p>\n<p>Cathy<\/p>\n<p>cashley@dallasdeafclub.org<\/p>\n<p>&#8212;<\/p>\n<p>BETTER IP RELAY &#8211; EVERYWHERE! i711.com makes all your relay calls better.<br \/>\nBetter web calls.
