" Living every day in Hope " Dad.
Hi to everyone. This is Mary writing with an update on Dad.
I think most of you knew that Dad has been having a lot of trouble with his feet and legs. Mainly on the left side where the blood clot was that went to the lungs a few years ago.
I took Dad to the Foot Doctor this a.m. for his latest appointment. He said the wound is not healing like he would like it to, so he made Dad an appointment to start going to the Wound Care Center as an out patient. He said they can prescribe medications that he doesn't have access to from the doctors office. He'll go once a week, and the Home Health nurses will continue to come here 2 or 3 days a week to wrap his foot and keep tabs on how things are going. They feared that the infection would go to the bone, but did x-rays and says it has not so we are glad to know that.
He wasn't able to go in for Bible Study last night and that is definitely a first. He stayed in bed all day yesterday and that is a first, too.
But things are looking up.
Bye for now.
Love, Mary & DAD
Good morning.
I would like to write a journal this morning but that is not possible. My main Doctor wants me in his office at 10 a.am. this morning. I have no idea what he is going to tell me, but I have prepares myself to accept it.
I just want to tell all of you that I love you and will be thinking of you today.
Mary will be adding to this, when we have any news.
BYE BYE DAD

I hope the doctor has only good news for you today. Take care and I'll be waiting to hear what he had to say.
Good Morning DAD...
Soon you will be at the Doctor's Office for a consultation. I will be thinking of you and visiting often for an update from you or from Mary. I hope the Doctor can help you obtain some relief from the pain. It is good that you had the bible meeting at your house last night because all who saw you offered you encouragement and they are all praying for you today. Lots of positive thoughts and love are being sent your way.

Good Afternoon DAD...
I do hope you returned to bed when you home from your doctor's appointment. Sounds like things are slow healing but at least they can do something special to help it heal rather than have an infection travel to the bone. I am relieved and hope you are too. Of course I don't have to live with the pain and discomfort. You seem to have really good care. This has definitely not been a good summer for you.
Hugs to you and to your caregiver Mary.
