Ivee also has a gastric feeding tube, internal port, and vp shunt. “When Ivee first came homeafter brain surgery, she had a big 5” gash on her head and down her neck. She was undergoing chemotherapy,and she couldn’t do anything. She had two external ports including a hickman line and a gastric tubefor feeding. We had to learn to keep everything very sterile. Amanda, Mercy’s nurse, and Carla, Mercy’sphysical therapist got us through this. We spent too much time in a hospital; it is a blessing to receivespecialized care in our home,” said Hope, Ivee’s mom. Ivee is still not walking or eating well by mouth, butwith continued therapy, doctors are hopeful that one day Ivee will walk and eat on her own.Guardian Angel makes Mercy’s pediatric home care possible.For more information on Guardian Angel please call 621-4884 or visit online at mercymedical.com.

More than 60 years ago, on the shores ofMobile Bay, the Sisters of Mercy established Mercy Medical to continue thehealing ministry of Jesus by providing compassionate and holistic healthcare.It was the passion of our founder, Catherine McAuley, which started us on ourjourney to serve those in need, especially the needs of women and children.Mercy Medical has grown from a small convalescent home to a very diverseministry fashioned to address the myriad needs of the people we serve. As theneeds of our community grew, the mission of the Mercy Medical grew with it.Eleven years ago, Mercy met a crucial need by providing home healthcare,palliative care and hospice care to critically ill children. This level of specialty care is priceless tofamilies, because it allows their critically ill children to remain at home where they can besurrounded by family and friends.I was told by a Mercy pediatric nurse that miracles happen daily with our pediatric patients perhapsbecause to a mom of a critically ill child, walking, smiling or just breathing is a miracle. As you readabout our children in this program, you will understand how vital pediatric home care is to ourcommunity. Your support helps ensure that families, already suffering the unbearable heartache ofcaring for a seriously ill child, will receive the best healthcare available, regardless of their abilityto pay.Again, thank you, for giving us the means to keep our children at home in the loving embrace oftheir families at a most critical time in their lives. Whether you are a sponsor, guest, player orvolunteer your generous gift of time, talent, skill or money is very much appreciated.May God bless you all,Sister Marilyn Graf, RSMVP Mission IntegrationMercy Medical18

2009 DOGWOODTRAIL MAIDSBack row l-r:Morgan Roney,Mary Katherine Shoemake,Terra Reeves,Gracen Gaddy.Front row l-r:Kathleen Wainwright,Ashley PettawayThe Bird of ParadiseThere was a time when flying meant an open cockpit airplane. Pilots andpassengers alike were in intimate contact with the airplane and the air it flewthrough. It was a magical time, accented by an equally magical experience. Forthe most part those days are gone. But luckily they’re not gone entirely.In the Eastern United States there is a brand new time machine that can takeeven the most cynical, jaded techno junkie to those days. Even if only for a briefvisit, as a passenger in the finest tradition of the barnstormers of the goldenage of aviation. The time machine is in the form of a 1928 Travel Air biplane.Taking the name of its twin engine big brother, a 1946 Beech D-18-S, The Bird OfParadise has undergone a three year complete restoration that has breathed newlife into an airplane that was a classic even when it was brand new.The Travel Air was designed with passenger service in mind. The front cockpit,which has a basic instrumentation in the panel, was built for two average sizepassengers. Extra large passengers may be surprised to find that they are inroomy, comfortable surroundings when they fly alone in the front seat.The Bird Of Paradise’s original paperwork from 1928 bears the signature of noneother than Walter Beech. His aircraft, built in partnership with aviation pioneersClyde Cessna and Lloyd Stearman, is once again airworthy and working in awarm and sunny place where a lady of her maturity deserves to spend her daysenjoying her surroundings and telling tales of how things used to be when theworld was a simpler place.Duncan McCall Pipe BandDuncan McCall Pipe Band is an award winning Grade 4 competitionand concert pipe band founded June 1st, 2004 under the directionof Pipe Major Steven Bicknell and Drum Sergeant Michael51Paige.
