What's new with Randy :-)

Hi!

Just a quick update to let you all know that Randy continues to make tremendous strides in his recovery. We were able to get outside as a family on Friday and enjoy the beautiful spring like weather and sunshine. Randy walked around the block and enjoyed breathing in some fresh air. We also made a trip to Costco and Target over the weekend...trying to make life as normal as possible. It is very helpful for Randy to have occasional outings so that he can begin to rebuild his strength by walking around (with his walker of course). His Physical Therapist has been working with him on regaining movement in his neck as well as working on a muscle in his hip area that has been aggravated due to over compensating for his neck and weakness in his legs (amazing how the whole body works together).

As I mentioned his appointment to find out his pathology findings is now on Monday at 10:15....be looking for a good news post later in the afternoon....that is our prayer. His radiation consultation and simulation was also moved up to Wednesday morning...pray that everything runs smoothly with that. He will most likely start radiation the following Monday.

Again, thank you to everyone that has stopped by, met us up at Target, walked with Randy, shared cards, emails, phone calls, meals, dessert, gifts etc. The support of so many has made this new chapter in our life much less stressful than it could have been.

Enjoy your day...much love,

Randy and Rachel
