Update from the Perrys
Well, you'll all be happy to know John's doing great. This morning he wanted the Wall Street Journal and his laptop! We saw the doctor and he reported that it took him the most time to straighten out his bowed legs-- but he did it. So, John might be a little taller! He didn't get into his room and settled until 9:30 last night. But they had him up and walking the hall this morning. He's really doing better than I thought.
Oh, and yesterday was quite eventful-- besides witnessing a bicycle injury/car accident-- hit and run (john had to walk to the hospital and admit himself while i gave the police/ambulance all the info)-- after that a red light went on in my car and the shop did not want me to drive it, so it got towed to the repair shop-- so I shlepped all john's stuff for the hospital (walker, suitcase, laptop, reading material) to the hospital. I looked like a bag lady. And then this morning, if that wasn't enough fun... Rachel got the stomach flu. Although I want to be with John, I'm home cleaning up from sweet Rachel Ray. That's probably more than you wanted to know-- but alas-- life is colorful-- all colors! It is a wonderful privilege caring for my family. I believe John will do just fine. He's been working out hard the last several months, so I think he'll come back strong. We're delighted he might not have as much pain. Y'all know better than anyone! Just wished I could be two places at one time-- right now Rachel wins the "most needy award".
Well, actually I wished we could be three places at one time-- we'd all like to be with Dick as he's healing-- we miss you all especially when someone is sick-- that's the hardest time to be so far away. I send much love from us all here!
