The past few weeks have seen a wide variety of activity for
Anita. Several weeks ago she came home from Mayo Clinic with a feeding tube.
She was very weak. Within a week she was up for a few minutes every day,
sitting on the deck enjoying the Prescott spring. Another week passed and she
was able to walk into the kitchen, with Bob’s help, and sit at the dinner table
participating in the conversation.
However, this past week has been difficult. She has a couple
of small infections on her skin. The antibiotics were difficult for her to
tolerate and required trips to the emergency room. Then on Friday, she became very weak. Bob
brought her to the hospital on Sunday morning. Her feeding tube had come out
part way. Monday morning she underwent the installation of new type of feeding
tube. She will stay in the hospital until Wednesday. At that time it is
expected that she will go to a local rehab facility for a few days in order to
regain some of her previous strength before returning home.
Bob is doing remarkably well. He so appreciates the
assistance of professionals to help with her care. The ward and many friends have
been so charitable in their countless acts of service. Bob and Anita have felt
of your faith and prayers on their behalf.
