Hey everybody! Thanks to those of you who have been leaving comments! It's nice to know you are still thinking about us! As far as Rich's nurses, we miss all of you, I can't say that we miss being at the hospital!
Rich's counts are still climbing higher and higher everyday! He's feeling much better each day as well. He doesn't get so tired in the evening, and he keeps busy for much of the day. He's doing a lot of things around the house, and he's also going over to work and getting his van ready since it really hasn't been used much in 8 months.
He has a follow-up visit with Dr. Andreadis on Wednesday where we will get more info. about his post-treatment bloodwork/scans/meds. We'll let you know what he finds out! He's hoping to go back to work part-time the end of this month, but we'll see what the doctor's opinion is of it.
School is going great! We're getting into a "flow." I'm on my lunch break right now, which is too short! I try to eat and cram as much work in as I can from 10:50-11:35! Plus, I'm getting some kids caught up who were absent a day or two this week (there's some sort of head cold/sinus cold going around).
We're finally starting to get back to a "regular" lifestyle, which is great! We love married life - going to the same "home" everynight is so much better than living 50 minutes apart. We love our house, regardless of the fact that we still have no light switch covers or certain light fixtures, or wallpaper border in the kitchen or patio furniture and a grill or pictures on the walls...... (Yes, I know that's a run-on sentence.) All of that will come in time, but right now we just appreciate living life together in our own little space we now call "home!" Thanks for your prayers and thoughts. We couldn't get through this without all of you who have supported Richard in some way since February! Have a great day!

Hello Richard and Daphne,
So happy for both of you. So happy counts are going up and strength is gaining! Remember, just contact me if you need any rides/companionship for follow-ups, or scans. I'll be there.
Looking forward to seeing you soon.
Continue to enjoy life and this beautiful weather!
Lots of love,
Aunt Paula
Hi Daphne. Thanks for all of your efforts to keep us up to date.
Richard, when will YOU write to us on your blog? So many of us in the family call to see how you're doing, yet we often don't hear from you because you can't possibly keep up with all the questions. Here's a suggestion: Why don't you let us hear from you directly when you can? I for one would be happy to get a first-hand account of how you are doing. C'mon, Rich, it's the 21st Century. The computer won't bite you.
All my best
Uncle Pat
Richard,
It was great to see you in church a few times! Amy and the girls are looking forward to you coming out to our house to do some work (maybe a toilet ride for Isabel for old times sake!) God bless both of you as your time together means so much more for all that you have been through.
All of our prayers,
Joe Subacz
Just another quick reminder that we continue to think of you both LOTS and continue to pray!! Praising God for such wonderful healing!
Love,
Kim Zim
