Fallen From Grace!!!

That is what Jerry is telling everyone! The halo came off today after 12 weeks and 1 day but who's counting. For such a brutal looking contraption is just goes on and off easy as can be, of course that is easy for me to say. I have to say that was the best hug I have ever received after that came off.
Everyday is a new day, a day that we almost didn't have. We really celebrated our birthdays and our wedding but EACH day is new. All of us should look at our days like that. All of you have seen how quickly it changed and every prayer that has been answered. All of your prayers, and you know the specifics you prayed for, were answered. Thank you for prayers from every corner of our great country.
Our next phase of recovery is starting. He has to work on regaining strength that he lost. Fresh Iowa air and a garden that is in need of attention will help with that. I'm sure that two labs will be more than helpful in recovery there are many softballs to throw, walks to take and therapeutic snuggling will be in order too.
Jer still has medical care ahead of him that will be done in Iowa, so continue your prayers. The cell phone is always with him so call with a good joke, good news or just to say hi, he'll appreciate that. We love visitors, so plan a few days in Iowa anytime.
Thank you for all your support. We ask God for his blessings over all of you every day.
