Nancy continues here daily Hyperbaric Oxygen treatments at the hospital. Each Wednesday she meets with the wound specialist. Wednesday 7/17 the doctor said the wounds are definitely starting to close but she will have to continue the treatments until they are completely healed....no time frame was predicted.
Our kids are still changing the dressings; now they are every other day versus before when they had to be changed daily. What a Blessing to have their talents. Another big step is Nancy is able to drive herself to the hospital each day. We thank all of those who drove her daily over the last several months and those who offered to drive her.
She is getting out more and more to have dinner and meet with friends. She has a lot of hair now and some friends want her to keep it short like it is!
She is still fatigued a lot and getting frequent headaches. The doctor said the Hyberbaric treatment can cause headaches and the medicine she is on can cause the fatigue. Her appetite has improved some.
To summarize, Nancy is making slow but steady progress with the wounds and the outlook is positive.
Thanks again for the prayers card and meals; the support has been overwhelming.

Week of June 23rd and June 30th
The last two weeks have been more of the same for Nancy as she makes the daily trip to the hospital for her Hyperbaric Oxygen treatments. She sees the wound specialist on Wednesdays and the wounds are healing but at a very slow pace. It is somewhat frustrating for Nancy as she would like to put this behind her and move on to the radiation treatments.
Nancy was able to go join me at church and one of our priests, whom we have been friends with for a long time, gave her a special Healing of the Sick Blessing.
We had some great news over the holiday weekend as our son Tommy and his wife Miranda had their third child....Layla Marie. She was born on the 4th of July and she is beautiful. This was grandchild number five for us....what a blessing.
Nancy and I were able to make the road trip up to Napoleon over the weekend to spend time with them. It was a great time.
While Nancy's progress is slow at least things are moving in the right direction. We thank all who continue to pray, send meals and cards. It is all still very uplifting for her on this long journey.
Thank you.
