Dear friends and colleagues:
First off, let me thank you for all the wonderful emails and cards you have sent since hearing of Judith's fall and subsequent hospitalization. I can't stress more strongly how much they have meant to her and to me. to hear from so many folks from all eras of our life.
I wish I could have a more encouraging note to send, but Judith is back in the hospital as of last Wednesday. She had been in Surrey Place Rehab Center since April 17th. they attempted to do as much occupational and physical therapy as possible, but she continued to have severe pains in the left leg that was broken just below the top of the femur. That really limited what they could accomplish, and she didn't make much progress. A bunch of other complications set in, particularly a urine infection, bad dehydration and undernourishment due to her total lack of appetite.
Anyway, she was readmitted to the hospital for more medical care than was possible at the rehab facility. She is quite disabled, and certainly needs all the good vibes and prayers that can come her way.
Meg and I are doing well, and we have wonderful caregivers that take good care of both of us, (even though we hire them to only take care of Meg.) As I have mentioned previously, our wonderful church community also cares so well for us.
I will keep you updated.
Grace, Peace, and Love,
Mike
