Regular routine

Pete is doing really well and basically concentrates on exercising, resting and sleeping.  Physio is a very important component of the healing process.

As care giver I also have to be taught along with Pete about the many changes in his life.  But, we will take this all a day at a time.

My sister Mabel Roukema from BC will be arriving on Monday evening for a few days and we really look forward to her visit too :)

Seeing as the days from here on will be very similar, I think that maybe it's time to do a post every two or three days, rather than each day.  Please feel free to just say "hi" or to add a comment for Pete to read.

We really appreciate the prayers,love and concern shown by so many.

Feeling very grateful for the many blessings received from our Heavenly Father.

    We are going to miss you daily updates, but we understand. Keep up the good work.
    Monday marks one year for Darrell's transplant. Before you know it, you will be saying the same thing.
    Have a great week.
    Darrell and Sandy

  5. You have made the two week mark. Praise the Lord for his miracles. So glad to hear. Now you can get down to learning your new routines of exercise and meds and sleeping. All the best with Margaret learning it all too. I am just so happy for you. I could jump for joy and hug you both. (I guess that would hurt a bit.) Kathleen

  6. We know the ward, the room, the bed, but not "the hospital" that Pete is in. Hmmmmm........it would be handy to know. Make sure Pete does not gallivant like you and Ena did yet!

    I know you'll let us know if there's any 'big' changes to report. Thanks so much so far! It was so special to spend quality time with both you and Pete! Warm Hugs to both of you!
