Lab

Dave had his first f/u appointment with Dr. Hunt yesterday, which went well. He has gained another 2 lbs. - good news. They drew lab yesterday, and today Dr. Hunt called and said the lab was excellent; all counts were higher - more good news. He seems to be a little stronger each day and being back home has helped tremendously. He has gone to the Buffalo each morning to meet the "guys" and have a cup of coffee, and then makes a trip to the fire hall, then home. It's early to bed, but he's sleeping well without any help from "drugs". I guess there is just no place like home!

We Made It

The trip home was uneventful, and Dave drove the entire way. We stayed in Couer D'alene Friday night and got to Whitefish around noon Saturday. Molly, Stella, Sully, D.J., Orland and Jan were here to meet us and help unload the truck. The house was spotless and the lawn looked good thanks to D.J. There is something to be said about family, friends and home. I'm sure Dave will regain his strength soon as he spent a lot of trips to the door today letting the dogs in and out! Great physical therapy! He meets with Dr. Hunt this week sometime, so will keep you posted.
