It has now been six weeks since this medical nightmare began and finally things are going so much better. Six weeks is often the magic goal for surgery healing and this week there has been a definite turn around. He no longer has a lot of pain and his drain tubes have all been removed. He is eating well and sitting up more and more. Last night he actually joined us for supper at the kitchen table and this morning he joined us on the patio as we drank our early morning coffee. Last evening I drove him around the fields in the car to check on his cows. From the front seat of the car, he walked Jill through the process of catching and sorting cows in the corral as Steve is taking a load of calves to market for us this week. This afternoon Jill took him for a golf cart ride to check on several different farming projects.
We are so grateful for God’s continued healing touch. The biggest challenge now is getting his strength and energy back. As he likes to say, “my energy tank gets empty really fast.” He still walks with a walker and with supervision! He can be a irratic driver with loose steering!!!
