A Stroll Along The Promenade

After her dinner this evening (turkey and mashed potatoes), Cathy said she felt like going for a walk. So, with portable oxygen and a walker, Cathy and I (chaperoned by a care-partner) strolled up and down the corridor: from her room to the window at the end of the corridor, back past her room to the nursing station at the opposite end of the corridor, returning to her room. She maintained good blood-oxygen saturation the entire stroll. Ten weeks ago I could not even imagine that this would be possible without a transplant. The progress during the past two days is nothing short of a miracle.

Thank you all for the good thoughts and prayers.

"Nothing short of a miracle" is right...thank you Lord! He has been so faithful and you have been so strong! Today's blog entries made me cry tears of joy! Praise God for singing, strolls and good news! Keep it up!

Sending you hugs!

Hopefully the coming days will show even more improvement. Every little step is cumulative toward your homecoming. We love you very much and pray for you everyday, Donna has been out of town and probably will be for the next two weekends, My time is gobbled up with gigs, We hope to see you soon. Maybe we can get there during a weekday between Donna's trips. No matter what, you are always in our hearts. BTW, what were you singing to youself the other day? I'll bet it was EJ LOL

Love, Donna & Floyd
