Health Update

Darrell is not only holding steady but is actually showing signs of marginally improving! He goes to the Dr. regularly and has blood tests every other week. Slowly but surely he has been able to lower his prednisone. Some of his blood levels are coming back into normal ranges. This is good news! We would love to see him totally off the drug, if possible. The Dr. has no explanation as to how his body is reacting. We are just grateful for any reprieve. Now if we could just fix his pesky leg....

Hi, Michelle and lovely family! My, what a nice blog you have :0)
Got your text messages, but not sure you've recieved my replies. I think of you SO often, and have been sending good thoughts your way. Love the pictures! You all look great ... and so grown up. Those pictures of Eric w/his friends remind me of us in high school ... 28 short years ago.
It looks like he's making good memories. I hope they are as enduring for him as the special times we shared. I need to get back to work here, but I'm so happy we've reconnected. I'll check in on your blog from time to time and let you know I'm still out here, forever your friend.
