Alan's Reflections

First of all, I would like to thank you for your prayers and concern for us - Judy and me. Your prayers are especially appreciated because through prayer and God's help anything is possible. Faith, determination, family, and friends are going to be the anchors that pull me through this difficult time. (I am a Navy guy, you know.)

Some of you like to give me a hard time, that is appreciated too! I know you are just doing so because you care. I look forward to many more fun times with each of you. May God bless and keep you.

Signing off with the name my grandchildren call me,
Dude

Home

Hello Everyone, We have been having some internet problems that kept me from posting. I went back to work on Friday, December 5th. After work I drove back to Durham to get Alan, and we came home together on Saturday. Traci, Mark, and the kids came down for dinner. As we sat down at the table Anna Kate said what we all felt, "This feels normal....really good." It does feel so good to be back home.

Alan has a blood clot caused by the picc line. They said it was not high risk. He is giving himself Lovenox shots to thin his blood.

I will continue to update the blog every few days to let you know what is going on with him. Thanks to all of you for traveling on this journey with us. It has been extraordinary. We are so thankful and full of hope and joy for our future. Love, Judy & Alan
