Friday Update

Dr. White came in the morning and is very pleased with dad's progress. He wants to do a standing x-ray to see how the spine "looks together". Also he said they are looking at moving him to the rehab unit to start full physical therapy early next week. (That is going to be good for him, but hard work too!!)

The tube has also been removed from his stomach and he can start trying to eat again. Once he's feeling better they will do the bone marrow test.

Thanks for your constant prayers.

God is good.

Hi KJ,Bob,& Deb,& Kids.
So very happy to hear Bob is getting to go to rehab.
Yes it is hard but it doesn't take long to start to feel and see results.
Talked to NaNa & PaPa last night and they are really wanting to come up and see their baby. KJ talk it over with your dad and let them know when would be a good time for them to come up. It will only be for the one day. I think Sam & Wilma are going to bring them. Keep up the good work little brother and know that we all love you and pray for you each day.

Uncle Bert, sure hope the rehab isn't too ruff. But, maybe it would help while you are doing your rehab routines to sing the little diddies that Ms. Janie played when we would square dance in her class. 'Member? One of them went "big foot up, little foot down, stomp the ground as you go 'round". Just have Deb call me if you need help with that, ok?
Ok,Ok, I hear ya. I am seriously so glad that YOU are getting better. I'm not so sure about my other 2 patients. Love you JRC
