Working out and waiting

It’s been a while since my last update – lots has been going on.
Basically, physical therapy is my next stop. There is a facility right here in the hospital and that’s where I’ll be going. In the mean time, I’ve been working with a therapist up here on my floor nearly every day. We walk, [...]

40 feet

40 feet may not seem like a long distance but when you haven’t walked in 5 weeks and your legs go from strong muscular thighs to chicken twigs, 40 feet is a long way to go. But that’s how far I walked today with physical therapy. It was very strenuous, but I was determined. I’m [...]

Good Morning

It’s been several long weeks, but I am finally “back on the air” so to speak with the blog. Many many thanks to mom and the rest of the family for keeping everyone updated on what was happening. And many thanks to all of you who kept up, sent comments, etc..
In a strange way, all [...]

Day by Day

This past week’s bump is over.  Hopefully going forward, Seth will have a much smoother ride.  It seems to me that he is really beginning to regain his strength bit by bit each day.  He is able to have real food and so last night we had a pizza party in his room for dinner.  [...]

A Little Bump

He is on the road to recovery.  Seth is beginning [...]

Just a fast note

We know how anxious all of you are to connect with Seth.  He is not yet using the computer or blackberry so if you leave messages or emails they will not be answered for a while.  Be patient as you well know that as soon as Seth is able he will be answering you.

Please NO CALLS Just yet

It is finally time to share some good news.  Seth is now out of ICU and in a regular room.  He is regaining his strength but it is a long and slow process.  You cannot imagine how gratified all of us are to give this positive information to you.  It is very important that we [...]

The Past Few Days…
