A Sports Analogy and TOGOs at 21!

Written By Andy Fletcher

There is not a lot planned today while we wait to meet with Caroline's surgeon this evening. In the arena of healing, we sit as spectators and watch as her body fights against bacteria and we check the medical scoreboard regularly to see who is winning. If the fever drops and the body leads, we will continue to watch the game. If the fever rises and the bacteria take over, we will bring in the second string (surgery). We'll keep you posted on the score...

Apparently, I was a big spender back in the day and took her to TOGOs for "Turkey/Avocado on Wheat." It must have worked, because sometime later I told her I loved her "and now we have eight kids."

Kenj...thanks for saying yes to a turkey (sandwich)! Let's keep it crazy, but serious!

Quietly making noise,

Andy "Fletch" Fletcher has been married to Kendra for more than 30 years. He is a proud father to 5 sons, 3 daughters, but has added a few more kids by marriage and now a few grandchildren who call him Pops.
During the day he can be found fixing people's teeth, but the rest of the time you can find him smoking a pipe, enjoying a cup of coffee, riding a motorcycle or hanging out with his loyal black lab, Champ.
Enjoy everything you see on theMangoTimes from this Jesus-loving, wife-smooching, dog-walking, pipe-smoking, mountain-hiking positive guy as he quietly makes some noise.
