It was another good, uneventful day today. Jaime, Gina, & I spent the day with Aaron and as always enjoyed talking & laughing together. We spend a lot of time talking about the future which I find encouraging. When I think back to the early days when you weren’t sure what you were going to walk in on when you arrived….uneventful is outstanding!
Aaron continues, for the most part, to spend every waking hour off of the vent, and some of that time off of supplied oxygen as well. Everyone at Magee continues to comment on his progress. Aaron is ready for home cooking. Many of you have offered to prepare meals for us and because of the uncertainty of our schedule we have been unable to take advantage of your kindness/cooking. Once Aaron is back home for good we plan on doing so. So start looking up your favorite recipes.
We said goodbye to 2 fellow Magee patients this past week as they have moved on to the next step in their recovery. Please keep Conner & Ted in your prayers. They were both an encouragement to Aaron during their time here.
We were told today that Aaron will have an “outing” before he leaves on Friday. He will have an opportunity to go out on the town to a location of his choice. It sounds like he is leaning towards a visit to Starbucks & maybe Love Park. We wish we could be there but it sounds like it may happen on Tuesday or Thursday so we will have to count on Diane to paint us a verbal picture of the event.
Aaron’s fantasy football team is back on the winning track after suffering their first defeat last week.
GO PHILLIES!
Keep praying for strength, courage, healing, & wisdom as the Journey continues.
Aaron if the Red Sox could beat the Yankees at home during the World Series, so can the Phillies. I am rooting for the Phillies since I was born in PA. and every good Red Sox fan hates the Yankees. I am sure a lot of Red Sox fans are rooting for the Phillies to win. I hope you have an uneventful trip to Harrisburg on Friday and GO PHILLIES. Love Ya. Cousin Sandy in Boston
HELLO Aaron,Jamie,Woody,Diane,Gina,and Alexis!!!!
While I have not left a comment in sometime,that does not mean I have not been following this Epic journey of Mr.(and a soon to be MRS.) Aaron. It also does not mean Ya All do not retain the support of Northwest Montana and Alaska. I was speaking to my Mom up in Alaska this morning, and she asked about how You were doing. I told her all she’s gotta do is go to this awesome Blog and get updates daily to go with the prayer chain she is a part of. She answered that her “computer just does’nt work right”. I promptly sent her a link… She will let me know later if it worked, OR Lord help Ya, we may know if it worked if a Mommie-San comment shows up… And just so you know, Mommie-San is an avid baseball fan herself and will probably add a fewforthe Phillies. They’re gonna need it tryin’ to win TWO in N.Y. …..Yikes!!!!
The weeds where that vent is gonna live are getting closer and it makes this critter SMILE. Go Mr. Aaron, and I hope to meet you one of these days.
