New Wheels

Les got his new wheels.  His chair was delivered recently.

We are very fortunate to be able to borrow Geri's van.  Her husband Marty, who was my dad's very good friend,  used this van.  Les' chair needed a bracket on the chair to fit into the bracket that was in the van.  It was gonna cost a near fortune to put that thing in.  But between our friend Barry, our son Kris and our son-in-law Brett, they figured it out themselves and got the bracket installed!  Les had SO MUCH fun that evening hanging out with the boys!  Thanks also to David for his help, and to Dustin and Rick for checking in.

We sold the Explorer to our friend Joey.  That all worked out so well!! 

We have been enjoying just being home.  No appointments at all this month besides Les going to Physical Therapy twice a week.  They are trying to loosen up his shoulder a bit.  His right hand is pretty much useless and his left leg is really dragging.  But, he is eating and swallowing and enjoying that! We would ask for prayers that his left hand stays agile - that hand is key to his texting/emailing communication.

We are thankful for continued visits from neighbor nurse Kay.  Besides checking on Les' health, she brings yummy baked goods along!   Dr. friend Steve also visits often.  Les looks forward to those visits - he can talk to Dr. Steve about anything.  We have had lots of visitors lately and we are enjoying the business of the season.  We pray that you, too, are enjoying this Christmas season, and more importantly, the REASON FOR THE SEASON!
