Glad to hear you are doing better Mike! Your positive attitude is probably the best medicine you could have! Looking forward to seeing you back in the garage & wrenching on the ‘64!

With Mike today sitting outside in the sun anticipating one more week of therapy before discharge on the 27th. He is progressing well in physical, speech and occupational exercises. God is good and we are hopeful.

& this is a couple days ago;
Planning Easter dinner at our house for church, friends and family that Sunday. Probably bring a dish to share but also there will be meat being cooked or smoked not sure which yet. Susan and Ed and Shari I believe are planning all the details. Mike is looking forward to it very much

Beautiful lift chair brought in by Rusty and the guys thank you so much and special thank you also to Kathy and Myron you guys are the best family we could ever have the support and outpouring of help is phenomenal from all of Mike’s family.

Lets keep the prayers going up guys !

This was yesterday on comet central FBook from Lori;

Sorry everyone for the long lapse in update. Mike came home for a short time but was still really not ready for that especially with just me having to do lifting and moving him about. So he is in a different type of facility still getting more therapy and he does start cancer treatments next week. Hoping that goes well and that he will continue to recover and be able to come home he thinks about you guys all the time.

Lori logged in as Mike here for an update - Mike has completed 2 weeks of radiation with no troubles from it and we do see some slight improvements with coordination, writing and memory but he is still struggling in some key areas - walking, left side neglect and weakness in the left side. He suffered another fall, this time forward onto his left side which left him with bruising and soreness. He is recovering from that in hopes to keep his aggressive physical therapy moving forward. We are thankful for any improvements no matter how small. Keep the prayers coming his way, please. Another week of radiation and starting oral chemo along with that now. Thanks, everyone.
