For those of you who don't know. Troy has been diagnosed with cancer and is starting treatment next week. Here is a forwarded message to give more information. There is a bank account set up at Umpqua Bank for anyone who would like to donate some money for Troy and his family. I will be sending the information soon as well. I don't seem to be on the Ashland list serve and would like to be on it. would someone forward this to that ultimate group as well.
Hello All-
I'm writing to update you on the Hemmerling/Auer family and to let you
know about the calendar we've set up to sign up for meals, walking
Ruby, or playing with Tess.
Troy will begin 3 months of chemotherapy
on Wednesday of next week.
After that, he heads off to "the mother of all surgeries." They have
requested some help with meals beginning next week (
December 2). If
they could get a dinner delivered about 5 or
5:30pm on Mondays,
Wednesdays, and Fridays, that would be fantastic. Currently, there are
no diet restrictions- we'll let you know if that changes. If you
deliver the meal in pots/pans that you need returned, they'll have a
box out on their front porch where they'll put the pots and pans and
you can come pick them up.
They also could use some help walking their dog, Ruby- a young lab
that
loves her exercise. If you sign up to walk Ruby, please indicate
what time you'd be able to walk her. Ideally, they'd love a morning
person and an evening person since that's what she is used to. Also,
she loves to run (for all you runners out there), but isn't so keen on
chasing balls.
Lastly, they would like some playdates for Tess.
If you would like to sign up, follow the information below.
Go to
www.google.com. On the upper right, there's a Sign In link.
Sign in as me:
e-mail:
becky@...password: Hemmerling
It basically takes you back to a regular google page, but now my
e-mail's at the top.
Look on the top left, there's a list of tabs (Web, Images, Videos,
maps...), click on
"more" and scroll down to "calendar".
Once in the calendar, look up at the tabs up on the right, just above
the calendar and click on the "month" view.
This should get you to a normal looking calendar.
To add an event, just click on the day and start filling in the form
OR you can click on "Create Event" on the upper left.
For dinners, please put "your name:dinner:phone number" as the event title.
For walking Ruby, please put "your name:Ruby:phone number" as the
event title. Also, add the time you would come to get Ruby. You may
have to click on "edit event details" to add the time in.
For playdates with Tess, please put "your name:Tess:phone number" as
the event title. Also, please add in times. You may have to click on
"edit event details" to add the time in.
If you're computer saavy, while creating the event, choose which
calendar (Ruby, Tess, dinner) and the message is color
coded. Then
save your event
Thank you so much for your support and help!
Becky
