Saterday July 19, 2008

Today has been a good day Russ is progressing well, maybe a little weaker than yesterday,but doing good. Still fighting potasium and now sodium, so the Dr. are working on meds. to help this problem. He still has to watch his water intake but can and have all the icecream, milkshakes, puddings and gatorade he can eat. He eats real slow and this way he seems to be able to keep things down. On a strength scale he saids he is at a 3, he can get up ande take care of his needs and go for shorts walks, and he is not in any pain. So far so good. Thanks again for all your notes and prayers we know prayers are answered because of how things are going up here. Thanks again for all your support Love Russ and Carol

Carol, It was so fun to see you yesterday. I think I need to save some more money and come back up on a week day(without Wade). We can take the kids to do something fun. They would love that. I know I just saw Russ in passing but I am impressed and more hopeful because he looked so much better than I thought he would or should.
I am thankful for all you and Russ do for my family. I hope you have a good 25th Birthday.

Love Cammie
