Hey Don So... glad to hear Pat is doing well. Murray had his surgery on the 15th. but got some type of infection and had to go back into the hospital for a few days. But he is home now and had the staples removed yesterday. Not ready to run a race yet but he is bound and determined to make the Christmas rally. So.... same thing here, decision will be made next week for sure. His was the left knee ,so he says he can still drive that automatic plus it already knows the way to Rayford. Hope to see all Soon....

Hey Buddy tell EK I gotta plan - Pat had her right knee done so we can just lash them together side to side and each of them will have a good outside leg and should be able to get around alright at the rally.

Don. hope ya'll can make it, but Mama takes precedence. Susan is on the mend and the PT has released her to use the cane in the house, but the walker when out.

Pat and Susan:
this is hoping you both are up and on the mend.
with the holidays approaching, our prayers and best wishes go with your family and you to have a speedy recovery from the surgeries . and may God bless you all.

Pat saw her Dr today and had the 25 or so staples removed from the 8" cut on top of her knee. He said she was doing well and moved her from the walker to the cane. Having the staples removed has improved her well being already. She now has a month of 2 day a week home physical therapy.

It was a tough decision to miss the rally but we think the correct one. Ken & Susan our prayers are with you for Ken's Mom.

Everyone have a wonderful Christmas Season and a very safe New Year Holiday.

Don & Pat - just want you to know that you were missed A LOT!

Don, Susan was much happier once the staples were pulled. Tell pat to hang in there and do as the PT tells her. Susan has graduated from home PT to a PT center now.

Problem is Pat will get used to all of the hand and foot waiting-on and be hard to break her of that habit. Just hang in there Don, she will be walking good before long.

Don,
We're glad the surgery went well. You hang in there and tell Pat that we're thinking of her and wishing her well.
You watch yourself as well. It's a strain on everyone and you'll need to keep yourself well for Pat .
Wishing you well,
