Dear Friends,

Just wanted to give you a quick update on Dad. He is still in the hospital, but in the progressive care unit where they're keeping good care of him.

Today, he's going be watching the Giants game with his good buddy, Mike Ayers, who came up from San Jose to sit with him. Mike brought him a Giants division cap to wear for the occasion! He would love to see two of his favorite teams in a Tigers/Giants series.  We've also let him know that Notre Dame seems to be doing pretty well this season.

Mom was with him this morning and they were looking at old family photos that his Cousin Christine sent. They were reminiscing about his time in Detroit and the various family members in the photos.

The hospital has given him some tests to check his white blood cell count, etc., but they haven't come back with the results yet (things move a bit slower on the weekends). It is likely that he will be moving back to the rehab facility tomorrow, but we will keep you posted.

His physical therapy has been going well. They are working the muscles in his arms and legs. Today, being Sunday, he is having a day of rest from most of the therapy, but they did put him a his chair so he can sit and strengthen his core muscles for a  few hours.
