Mom's health continues to improve. Her energy level is high. She's still struggling a bit with her eating. It is difficult, especially when traveling to regulate when, where, what and how much you can eat. She needs to eat often and only small portions at a time. When this can't happen, she wants to eat enough to satisfy her hunger. Consequently, she eats too much and then has to throw up defeating everything. So, small portions only and eating pretty much every hour has got to be the norm for a while. Now that she's home, she'll be able to regulate this better. But, we al know how some days become so hectic, it's hard to eat even 3 times a day, let alone 15. It will come in due time.
Mom and dad both went to the gym yesterday and mom was able to do water aerobics for the first time since her surgery. She has not been able be immersed in water since March because of the feeding tube inserted in her stomach. Now that it's out and the incision has healed, she is able to enjoy the pool again. They also decided, after visiting all the grandkids, they needed to buy a WII. There is a "game" called WII fitness they really enjoy. It is more than just a game, it is an exercise program they can both use. They purchased it last night and Cheri (granddaughter) will help them hook it up today.

Of course all the COOL grandparents have WII!!! I am so glad to hear things are getting back to normal!
I love my WII. I am so glad to hear things are going well. We are enjoying our mission to the Mormon Handcart Historic Sites. We are serving at the Willie Center. We get to ride horses for 15 miles a few times, and get to walk part way to Rock Creek Hollow (about 5 to 8 miles) 5 or 6 times. You are looking GREAT!!! Take care - it will all wait for you. Love, Sue
