A New Beginning

Con/Mom is settled back in at home and is enjoying the spring air! Gracie and I visited yesterday and she was ready to chat! First, however, she wanted Gracie to take off the tape on her neck, which Gracie graciously declined. LOL  I guess at 14 one is not quite ready to deal with the aftermath of a surgery. :)

We sat outside and enjoyed the birds while Jack enjoyed the birdseed scattered on the ground as well as small rocks as an afternoon snack. Con/Mom is very fatigued, but she presses on!  An afternoon nap gave her a little energy, but she will still need some time to recover from her recent hospital visit. Thus, therapy may resume on Friday or next week.  She needs to regain some weight, again, and get back to where she left off.  Baby steps backward to go forward...

All-in-all we're relieved to have the other carotid clear and give great thanks to her surgeon, Dr. Medley.  He took great care on this fine lady and he was prayerful right along side our family.  The energy coming Con/Mom's way is truly amazing and we are all so blessed with the outreach.  Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Happy Easter from Con/Mom and Dad/Dave!

  1. We look here each day with love and continue to pray. We would love to come by when the time is right, but know we are all with you in thought. Ben talked about swimming at your house and does he have some new strokes for you to see!
