Greetings dear blog reader:
My wife Sandy continues to be under hospice care in a nursing home. My health has taken a turn for the worse. Tests have revealed a lung infection that has already destroyed a quarter of my lungs. Doctors are giving me lots of antibiotics. My general condition declines. I now weigh 107 pounds. I cannot stand on my legs. I am working with rehab to regain use of my legs. However, the weakness and weight loss retard the therapy. Anyway, the doctors are still optimistic that I will be mobile and the drugs will kill off the lung infection. I was in the hospital for a month. I am now in a nursing home. No one knows what the future holds. But I will go on with courage, strength, and faith.
If I do not return with a post I want to say that keeping this blog has been one of the pleasures of my life. Thank you all for being my readers all these long years.
