Hello, everyone, Mark here. Terribly sorry that we haven't updated the blog in so long.
Jeanette went into the hospital again in the first week of November for a blood clot in her leg and for leg weakness issues. The leg weakness appears to be due to neuropathy (damage to the nerves) leading from her spine to the legs; basically, the commands to move her legs aren't getting through.
She was transferred this week to a physical therapy / rehab location in Canton. They can provide a more comprehensive workout regimen to get strength back in her legs, along with the benefit of being much, much closer to home. No ETA on how long she'll stay there but it's a short term facility (100 days or less.)
We'd like to thank all the folks who have continued to pray and send good wishes to our family. We've also been the recipients of great kindness from many people including meals, house cleaning and much more-- thank you all!
