Daddy Update

My family and I very much appreciate all your thoughts, concerns and certainly prayers on behalf of our dad. They have been felt and much comfort and strength have been taken from them. Dad is getting better everyday. This is a slow process, but we are reminded that patience is a virtue! He is getting good reports from his doctors, even got to skip cardiac rehab because he was doing so well. (doctor thinks dad can rehab himself-woohoo) He took a double whammy with his diagnosis of diabetes and quad by-pass, but for all of you that know him, it all is just a change in course, he just keeps doing what needs to be done. He is quick to remind us all this is just part of the journey, and we are so grateful to have him with us to enjoy the journey! Love you Daddy! Blanket the grandkids had made for him (and the dog) to snuggle up with.

Thank you for the report and I know that my uncle Randy has the strength and determination to get through this with flying colors. We are keeping him in our thoughts and prayers.
