Sitting up!

It,s Sunday about 5:00 PM and Dean is sitting up! He's had a shave and looks so much better.

Haverly returns to Chicago tomorrow morning...back to work and to school. She has spent every night here in the hospital since she arrived, and this will be her last night.

We are simply amazed at the number of people visiting the blog site. Once Dean feels better, he can spend hours reading you comments. Again, thank you for all of your support! Linda

What wonderful news! Everyday, someone who knows and loves Dean from CCISD asks how he's doing, and I just refer them to the blog...Each of you has done a wonderful job of keeping those of us who also love Dean so well-informed.

Sitting up and shaved--he's raring to go, sounds like!

Hi Grandpa I heard you are sitting up! I can tell you are feeling better than you were. I can't wait to see you, but it might be a while until we can. Everyone keeps getting sick.

Love Wyatt

We're so happy Dean is improving each day. Rollie's mom had hallucinations, different drugs, different problem - she heard children singing! But with medication changes, they went away & surely Dean's will too.

Our love & prayers continue to be with you,
Rollie & Richard
