My sister and brother married brother and sister

Floyd and Doris

Floyd and Doris are brother and sister. Lloyd and Lura (my brother and sister) are also. Floyd Nelson married Lura Sloan and Lloyd Sloan married Doris Nelson. So the Nelsons and the Sloans are pretty intertwined.

Floyd just came home from the hospital day before yesterday. Last week he had a quadruple bypass. Last month Lura had a kidney removed after it was discovered she has kidney cancer. Right now Lloyd and Doris are in Spokane taking care of them.

Both Lura and Floyd are greatly weakened from their struggles with illness. It is hard to know what they are going through.

This is a very stressful time. Floyd has at least three surgerys ahead of him. Lura has a still undetermined course of cancer treatment. It is so hard trying to predict the future. I try to be upbeat, but it scares me to contemplate it.
