2:30 pm Update

This past week, Paul visited his doctor back at Evergreen and everything continues to be healing very well. He took about 5 steps on his walker at home. He informed me that Tuesday he should be able to put 65% of his weight on his left foot and the following Tuesday he should be able to put 100% of his weight on it. This should allow him to start working more with the walker. He will still continue to wear his walking boot. His Physical and Occupational Therapy should start up again this week. He is still not sure if he will go to the hospital or if they come to his home for the therapy.

His IVC Filter is scheduled to be removed on Friday.

He is looking forward to seeing his new home in Palm Desert and is hoping to make it there by the end of the month.

Because so many people are still reading the blog for updates, I will continue to update the blog over the next couple of weeks and let you all know how Paul's recovery is going.

The following message is from Paul. He asked me to post this from him this afternoon.


Kathi and I would like to thank all of our friends and family for your thoughts and prayers during my rehabilitation. The blog has pointed out to us what a wonderful and diverse life we have had. Our hope is that each and every one of you share the same love of life that Kathi and I now share. Please stay in touch so that all of you do not become strangers. May your days be full of sunshine and roses!
