Ruth is home!

My parents got back about an hour ago. After eating some food and getting on the treadmill she is in bed snoozing. She is looking forward to sleeping in her own bed. My father and I are headed to bed as we are going to work early in the morning.

A lot of friends/ neighbors have been calling to see what they can do to help. For right now we are doing good. All of us are trying to stay healthy. Many of you have called asking if you can drop off meals or do anything. Ruth is not eating much and my father and I normally eat at work or come home and don't eat much. If any of this changes we will let you know, thank you for your kind and thoughtful offers.
(Note- next remark is from Bob and Sarah) After spending a week in Denver with all the restaurant, Whole Foods markets, ect.. we are actually trying to loose all the weight that we gained sitting around the hospital room believe it or not!

Thanks for your prayers.

  2. Ruth!
    I am so Happy that you are home! You have shown all of the courage I knew you had! Remember: Courage is not only being able to see through the tough times, but the mundane as well. And sometimes the mundane takes a tougher kind of courage, because it doesn't feel brave. It feels like boredom and depression.

    Chin up, my friend!

    Love,
    Leni
