Robert continues to improve, which is obvious by the way he is getting more and more restless. Yesterday Cliff Mosher came to visit Robert and brought him a BSF lesson! We are looking forward to the day he can go to BSF. Thanks for the visit Cliff - you really cheered him up. In fact, anyone who wants to come and visit or take Robert out of the house is welcome to do that! He has never enjoyed being home all day...let alone home all day after day after day after day. I am back to work and that means less time to spend with him. He still is not sleeping well. Something must happen to the internal clock when in an induced coma like he was...he can doze off and sleep for short stretches, but not all night long. One of the biggest challenges continues to be controlling his blood sugar levels. Perhaps better sleep will help that too.
The last few days, Robby and I scrapped and painted the lattice structure over our patio. We rushed to get done before the rain started tonight...and the drops started to fall as we swept up the last of the paint chips. Our necks and arms hurt. Robby asked why we were doing a job that should take weeks in just a few days…hmmm, I wonder that too, Rob! At least we got a coat of primer on all the bare spots.
As he listens to the rain, Robert wonders if I’m going to make a big pot of soup… I think fall has arrived. Robert has really enjoyed the cards in the mail and the comments on the blog and the phone calls. It adds a bright spot in his long days and gives him a break from watching his OLD videos.
Thank you all.

I was nice to talk to Robert yesterday he is sounding stronger everytime I talk to him. I pray that God will continue to give him strength during this recovery time. I want to thank so much for your insight through this journey I am encouraged by your perspective in how God is drawing all of you closer to Him. May God continue to bless you and your family.
My prayers are with you all. I will pray the Rosanna has a safe trip and great opportunity as she moves to Neb. for her new job.

I'm glad your transitions from the hospital to home, are planned out and have time to recover and rest.
Rememeber, your body needs it and what peace of mind you must have to know that your improving daily. Taking small baby steps to reach your goal is better than, not reaching it at all.
It's great to see that your days are filled with friends and family, who are encouraging you along this journey of recovery.
Talking about soup...we had soup for lunch today..because in the next 2 days, the temperature will have dropped about 27 degrees..
Robby thanks for being there for your dad during the day...keep him company. Don't forget to help him out in all the little things that might seems simple to us, but difficult for him.
Rosanana, thanks for being there and spending time with your dad. This will be great practice for what you'll be doing in the next few weeks..taking care of others. Make sure that you continue to blog and inform us our your new journey...
Love to all... Mom and Diane
