Maybe it was that, maybe all the prayers and good thoughts from everyone, maybe Dale's stubborn Norwegian nature, maybe all of that, maybe something else. We can't know but we are so grateful.
Dale continues to improve - he is stronger, mostly just using the walker to get around, enjoying any food he likes, visiting and storytelling with friends and family. Sunday we took the dogs to the St. Francis service at church. Yesterday we took a day trip to Lincoln City. It was glorious.
We are completely out of the Wygant house. A new young family is moving in and we hope they love it as much as we did.
That never could have happened with out the combined efforts of so many of you. You were amazing, providing love, caring, LOTS of physical labor and wonderful meals.
The condo is proving to be a bright, cheerful, convenient place to be. We are all feeling comfortable here, including the schnauzers.
Again, the kinds of help and support we need have changed. With Dale able to enjoy a variety of activities and visits we are calling a halt to the moving and unpacking frenzy. The rest of the stuff can wait.
We hope to go back to a more regular routine of being present and enjoying each day as it comes while we can.
Support needs will be listed again on dear Debra's blog:
Mainly we need buddies to spend time with Dale while I shop, run errands and get some exercise. Also we would love to have friends bring dinner and share it with us a couple of nights a week. Email or call me to arrange that.
In addition, Dale would love to have people drop by to visit and see our new digs. Maybe take a short stroll around the area. Just call our old land line.
