nothing

Today we woke up, at home, and had nothing to do.... at all. This was the first time since this whole ordeal started that we had nothing to do. It was really boring. Kev had a rough night sleeping from the student driven spinal tap. In a bit of irony, he was unable to fully fall asleep since he was constantly expecting someone to barge in the room to check his vitals or steal some blood. Like most parents would, Dad offered to periodically pop in and disrupt his sleep, but Kev decided against it.

We ate well today and he looks great. His walking has improved a lot. We went from a cane to a wheel chair, back to the cane, then the wheel chair again, stuck for a while on a walker, now we're back on the cane... not bad. His prescriptions are minimal this time around, but we know that won't last long. Tomorrow we have tentative plans of going into public and do some Christmas shopping. Usually we get a few adult beverages in us to loosen the wallets, but not this year. Hope everyone likes those awesome McDonald's coupon books!

Who doesn't love McDonald's?!? However, with my family, the cardiologist might have something to say about that ;0). Glad you are doing well!! We can't wait to see you. Love you lots!

Hven't had a chance to post in a while. It has been a bit crazy here in Orlando. If Kevin can keep McDonald's down then he is 99%of the way back. On second thought, maybe that's not such a good thing.

Hi to all. We miss Kevin in Orlando.
