Neighbors on the 5th floor. Dad and Vick are finally on the same floor 2 doors apart. They are both slowly rehabilitating. Vicki has been out of bed and sitting in a chair a couple of times. That is a major undertaking with all of her breaks! Dad got his hard cast off of his leg last Friday. He now has a brace on his leg and has a machine that exercises it 3-4 times a day 2 hours at a time. The orthopedic dr. said the leg looked like it was healing nicely. Dad has tried to get anyone and everyone to take the casts off of his hands and lower arms. They need to stay on another 3-4 weeks. He did hold a cup of coffee with his casts on the other day, it made me very nervous! What a daredevil!!
Dad and Vicki are enjoying the cards and notes they receive. People have been so generous with kind expressions and words of encouragement. Please keep those encouraging cards coming our way.
Special thanks to Marilyn, Janiece, Sam, Diane, Jamie, Dorothy, and Jr. they were a big help this past week. Thanks to Tom Clark for the yummy fruit basket and brownie assortment and to Rosemary McCarty for the chocolate cream pie. Dad and Vicki both ate a whole piece of pie and enjoyed the other goodies.
Pray for progress.

Love,
Jackie, Jerry, and Timi
