Monday 11 February 1974

It's a good thing we can't see, in part into the future! I think we would die from fright or a dilly of a heart attack.

Claire had been sick for several days. She was so ill & could not hold anything on her stomach. She was taken to the cottonwood hospital and underwent emergency surgery for gallstones on Friday 25 Jan '74. She was a very sick girl for several days. I had little "Kirk Benjamin Bullough" and Larry's brother Blaine & his wife had Shannon.

Claire was just beginning to feel better by the following Wednesday. Early Wednesday morning Jan 30, about 3:30 Leslie had a heart attack. He had come off the "swing shift" that morning at 12:30. We went to bed at one am. I had waited up until he cam home. (I had been uneasy about Claire & sat up until Les came home.)
