It is with great sadness we have to report that Dad went to be with the Lord last night. We are devastated but he clearly communicated that he wanted us to be strong. And so we will. After all, he taught us how to do that. If you are reading this, you already know theContinue reading “January 11th”

I know it has been a while (again) since my last update. Of course, being in the hospital during the holidays is not ideal. I hadn’t talked to a doctor in 5 days. However, I did speak with the new doctor today. The good news is that he is continuing to improve, all of theContinue reading “January 3rd”

Hello friends and family. I know it’s been a while and updates are sparse but is because we still don’t know much. Communication continues to be an issue although we work on it every day.

GREAT NEWS! Dr. Ruthman (great doc) called to tell me the Dad is being moved out of CCU! Hallelujah! I’m not sure when it will happen, but sometime today. This is tremendous news and we are so thankful for all of your support. Kim

Dad is continuing to make good progress. They have stepped down his oxygen again and he is doing well with that. He is much more rested, able to talk a lot more and moving a lot more on his own. The nurse made mention of him being moved to another floor and out of CCUContinue reading “December 15th”

Dad has been doing well today. I caught the new doc for a brief moment. He reported that dad is progressing for sure. He said if he can stay at 60% consistently for a few days and get own to 50% he may go to a regular floor. He reports things are moving in theContinue reading “December 14th”
