Bob is recovering in ICU at St. Mary's Hospital in Grand Junction from surgery to replace his aortic valve. We are amazed at the skill of the surgeon and at the advances in technology and modern medicine. We are indeed blessed! We expect that he should be discharged from the hospital to come home on Sunday or Monday. I am planning to stay in Grand Junction with Bob until then, and return to school for the remaining two weeks of the school year. We are all ready for summer in the mountains to get here! Bob will be going to supervised rehab in Glenwood Springs 3 days a week for a month once we get home, so it will be nice to have warm weather to walk the neighborhood and to drive through the canyon. We appreciate your prayers. He is certainly not out of the weeds, but we are optimistic that he will continue to improve. Sarah is a huge help to us keeping an eye on the home front, taking care of the cat, mowing the grass, cleaning the house, and just being a tremendous support for us. Did I mention that she is the best daughter anyone could ever have - just amazing with a spirit of compassion that no doubt is a gift from her heavenly Father!
