Subject: [Wcb-l] My visit with Ron

Hello everyone,

I just got back from seeing Ron.  I went with Bob Mahoney and David.

Ron is only most of the time answering yes and no to whatever you ask him.
He is very tired, weak and short of breath.  The Occupational Therapist got
him up while we were there and let him wash his face and brush his teeth.
He did very well.  Compared to Sunday he is coming along very nicely.  He is
on clear liquids like jello and broth.

He will go into a rehab place before he goes home in order to get stronger.
We don't know when that is as of yet.  He didn't know who I was at first but
because of all he's been through that's understandable and I haven't been
there every day either.

He is still unable to take phone calls.  As soon as he is able to do that I
will let everyone know.  Just know that everyone's prayers are working and
let's keep them coming for Ron.

If anyone  has any questions, you may reach me off list at
rainbow1 at drizzle.com.  My phone number is:  253-639-0659.

If there are any changes I will certainly let everyone know as soon as
possible.  Ron says hi to everyone and thanks everyone for the cards.

That's the latest for now but I'm sure happy to see him moving around a
little.  You know Ron is eager to get out of the hospital and do what he
likes to do.   and there is even a chance the nurse said if he keeps
progressing like he is now, he may even be at our Convention.  That would be
wonderful.  He may have to rest allot but he really wants to be there.  So,
here's hoping.

Sharon
