I figured it was about time I posted something new on here and updated a little bit since I have a chance.
Dan recovered well from having his trach put in. He gets alot of infections and has one right now actually but since he has direct access right to the lungs it is pretty unavoidable. He is still on oxygen at night to keep the airway moistened but he has adapted to having it quite well other than having alot of pain and all the other inconveniences and discomforts that come with it. He leads a pretty normal life. He his hoping to get a speaking valve shortly and hopefully will be able to go back to work at the 911 Center as long as the insurance all works out. His supplies per month for the trach run quite high so he has to have insurance right away so they are hoping to work it out for him. So if you think pray about it that everything will work out how God wants it to. He actually is able to talk well without a speaking valve but in order to work at the center he has to have one with everything that is involved with working there. Daniel also turned the big 30 this year on August 25.
I am still working at Stagers. I enjoy it for the most part it is just down the road 2 miles from the house and I finally worked up to the schedule Mon-Fri 8-4:30 and saturdays off so I definately enjoy that. They are closed on sundays. I have been there since August 2008. Other than working, keeping up with house, and taking care of Daniel's trach I havent really been up to much else. I am hoping to soon get a car so I can get involved in a little more.
Hunter is still being himself. He will be 2 in January it is hard to believe we have had him that long already and he is so much fun most of the time:-)
They recently jacked our house up which was a big blessing since it was pretty much falling in. So we have to let it settle for another month yet and then hopefully we can start painting and fixing it a little bit after the repair some of it. We love living there for the most part.
That is pretty much all the news with us. Although I will add that Bro. Ewald who I was posting about last has come a long way and has been in and out of the hospital quite a bit had some infections and one doctor really messed him up by reading a wrong chart and did the wrong thing so they have been trying to get him straightened up from that, but he was just in Pittsburgh for several weeks and got to come home. He is on the heart and kidney transplant list. So when you think of him pray. He has to have these or it will not be good.
Our 2nd anniversary is on Monday, Oct 12 and it is hard to believe we have been married 2 years already I was just thinking the other day it just seems like we were just getting ready for the wedding. All time is sure flying and it has been a wonderful two years being married to Daniel although we have faced some things we never thought we could face on less than two years but God has brought us through and we have drawn closer through it all even though it wasnt a pleasure going through it. I am looking forward to wonderful years ahead.
That's the update for now and hopefully I will post more often. Martie
