Sunday July 20, 2008

Today is +6 Russ fills a little weaker than yesterday the Dr. told us that his whie cell count was down to zero and as long as he doesn't get any infections from here on out he will be OK. He is still fighting to keep all his food down and doing good , that will be another factor in his going home sooner is if he can eat food and keep it down. It helps keep his spirits up reading the blog, thankyou all so much for writing to us, we are so blessed to have such good friends and family.We sure have some great nurses,and cna's this helps the days go by faster. Will you all take care, and thanks so much for all you do for us. Love Russ and Carol

Hi Russ, I talked to Dewayne and he told me about the blog. What a great way to keep us in touch. I think of you often and it sounds like your going through a tough time right now. I sure hope this suffering will bring better times ahead. Trust your doctors and have faith you will get better so you can get back to all you have to do. You have a great family and so much support so stay strong. It will get better, your family will get you through. Best Wishes Always, Steve P

Glad to hear things are going better than expected!! Hey Carol...check your voice mail on your cell, your mail box is full! I left a message on Sat., I wanted to see if you had plans for your birthday but I could'nt get a hold of you. Leikin went to the SLC Temple on Weds with the YW,she was determined to find out how to get Russ's name on the prayer roll, I guess it was quite the process for her to find someone to help her,she was pretty excited to find how that works. Rob's working from home this whole week so if you need anything he's there.
I'm back at work this week but you can call anytime. Love to you all!

Hi Russ and Carol
We had Quinn and Betty up to the cabin Saturday night and went to church Sunday. We took them out fishing Saturday and Quinn caught a nice fish, Betty was pleased because she likes fish Quinn not so much. I am glad to hear it is still going good up there. keep the Dr. happy and maybe they will let you come home some day. Alayna has her tube implanted next Monday and we will be up there and if you are able to have visitors I want to come by, but we will check with you first. Keep up the good work and take care.
