Greetings All,
Sorry for the long time between posts. I could make up some lame excuses but they would be just that …. lame , so I won’t bother.
The countdown (37 days) continues until we return to Kennedy Krieger. Aaron continues his rehab at home as well as at Hershey in preparation. As a result he is as strong physically as he has been since August. Aaron’s breathing also gets stronger each day. The ventilator and trach seem like such a long time ago. It is hard to believe that it has only been 7 weeks since they were “tossed to the weeds.”
Aaron and I have been following the NCAA men’s basketball tournament, although neither one of us see the second half of the late games. We’re a couple of light weights. 🙂 My bracket is shot as I had Kansas winning it all. Aaron is doing a little better. He has Duke winning it all which will make his Pappaw Wood happy. 🙂
Finally we want to thank Judy Roberts & Tim Strube for organizing the Basket Bingo fundraiser. Also thanks to all who helped including the Elizabethtown boys basketball family, past and present. Gina and I were unable to attend but the 3Ds (Aaron’s mom Diane, Aunt Den, & Aunt Deb), Mamaw Wood, Aunt Barb & Aunt Diane, and his sister Alexis were there. They as well as everyone else that we talked to who attended had nothing but rave reviews. It was well organized and everyone had lots of fun.
Happy Birthday Aaron!
Hey, Handsome, Happy Birthday!!! I thought of you yesterday while I was celebrating by drinking the coffee my kids made me in the morning. We both need to cherish the little things. I hope you have a busy workout scheduled to celebrate today. I’m glad that you’re here and turning a year older. BTW, where can I get hooked up w/ one of those Aaron’s Journey T-shirts? They ROCK. Have a great day, my friend. I’ll be in touch. XO, Suz
Aaron,
HAPPY BIRTHDAY !! It was great to see you yesterday enjoying the NCAA game. Soooo,what do you think the chances are of a lowly Big 10 team (MSU) against the remaining #1 seed … (if they remain standing after next Sat.’s games) … to win all the marbles ?? March Madness, indeed !!!
Hope to see you (and Leslie) next Sat. for Easter dinner at our house.
Love you, Aaron.
Hi Aaron, The pictures from the basket bingo are really good. Your usually not-so-lucky Mammaw hit it big that day and had a really good time. Have a great day tomorrow on your birthday. I hope to see you Wednesday. As always our thoughts and prayers are with you. We love you!
