You inspire me everyday. Cant wait to hear how the acupuncture goes. That has been recommended to me but I have always been a big chicken. Continued prayers and of course love.

Starting Something New This Week (Joanne)
We have heard some amazing stroke recovery stories during the past few months. One thing that many of them have in common is Eastern medicine and acupuncture. So on Tuesday morning I'm off to try it. I'm a little freaked out at the thought of it, but everyone assures me it will not hurt. So I'm ...
Sounds like a wonderful weekend. Enjoy!
Mornings on the the Deck (Toben)
We get to spend many Saturday mornings on the deck in our backyard drinking coffee, talking, reading, etc.. That's what we're doing right now. I even went and picked up a half dozen Crispy Cream sugar donuts to make everything perfect. I tell you what; we ate those donuts in about five minutes! ...
Enjoy the weekend and I will as always continue to pray.
It's a Saturday
We made it through another week. And it was a big week. Joanne started out-patient therapy at Spalding this week. And she did great. It's a lot of work and she has definitely been taking a little nap after she gets home each day, but it is so good for her to be doing this work. As hard as it is,...
Praise and prayers. You have come so far, I will continue to pray for your goals.
Love you!
Papa's Post
"I love the Lord, because he hath heard my voice and my supplication."—Psalm 116:1. Since today (Monday, July 11th ) is Joanne’s 6-month “stroke-iversary”, as well as her first day back at Spalding Rehab Hospital (this time in their Day Rehab program) http://www.spaldingrehab.com/rehab-progra...
Sounds like a wonderful Sunday to me. Continued prayers and praise for a couple nights of better sleep.
Best Thing About Sunday
Sunday is bath day at the hospital. Because Joanne is so far along they can actually roll her down to the shower and she can take an honest to goodness shower with great water pressure and all. You may not know this but Joanne loves a good shower. So this was a real treat this morning. Then we g...
Praying that both you and Joanne get a long and restful nights sleep.
Too Tired to Blog...Almost.
Today: Text message from Joanne at 4 a.m. that she really needs me at the hospital. She was too hot and uncomfortable. And she lost the call button. I called the nurse's station and they gave her the button back and turned on the AC but Joanne was still pleading for me to come down. So I did. O...
A little trouble is good for you. If anyone deserves the right to stir things up and bit its you.
So great to hear from you and that you are up to a little trouble this morning.
Love you!
Trouble
Gotin trouble for playing twith the butttoondsds on my bed$$$ Ruhr nurse threatened po rite my arms. Down !;) I'm not sure he reajhhyvwoufkld buut I sure got a good talking to.
God and I have had our struggles. I have doubted, I have questioned, I have walked away. Joanne has always made me want to draw closer to God. Her faith and love has always been an inspiration to me. This situation, as awful as it has been, has also shown me that God is good and powerful. He answers our prayers and loves us. So although in the depth of my heart I have believed for some time I have always resisted drawing near. Joanne makes me want to draw near, to trust and to love.
Ministering to Body and Soul
I got to see something cool today. Joanne had a couple of special friend come this morning for a little while and each of them, in there own way blessed Joanne. One sat and quietly talked to her, asking her questions and encouraging her about her progress. The last time this friend had seen Joan...
Absolutely fabulous news! Praying big, praising big!

"Black"
Today the speech therapist (Terry) who we like and awful lot, was working with Joanne. She was feeding Joanne ice chips which she was chewing up and swallowing. So Terry decided to try to cap her trach and see what would happen. The few things that capping the trach can do are allowing Joanne to...
