2.23.2010

It's been awhile since the last update and I'm happy to report some good news. Paul has been making alot of progress lately. He has started to eat regularly and gained a healthy amount of weight. He was very underweight for a while due to his lack of appetite. The doctors will clamp off his feeding tube for a few days and see if he maintains his weight on his own.

His mood has also improved significantly, he has been pleasant and has been walking to the dining room for dinner and has been cooperative with his therapies.

I recieved this email from my Dad a few days ago and wanted to share with everyone:

Hi Tara,
This morning I made Paul a blueberry pancake breakfast. He ate 4 of them!! He also had a glass of juice. We walked to a kitchen that was outside of his building and he sat there while I prepared it. This morning when we arrived, the nurses said he had not eaten and was waiting for us to come and make the pancakes. (We had talked about it the day before).
Miss you and looking forward to coming home.
Love,
Dad


Hope to see many of you at the fundraiser this Friday!!

2.15.10

My folks had an appointment with Dr. Rosenfeld, the main neurosurgeon, yesterday. He was away on vacation and not present for the previous meeting with the other specialists. Although Paul was cleared to fly by other surgeons, Dr. Rosenfeld
reported that he saw a small amount of air still present after his review of Paul's scan from Jan. 28. He recommended that Paul have another CT scan and MRI before flying to be safe. It looks like these scans will scheduled for the end of February.

We were not expecting this news and my parents were really hoping to be home by the 26th for the fundraiser.

On an up note Paul has had some very good days cooperating with therapies, having increased appetite and leaving his room to eat in the dining area.

The fundraiser is still on for February 26th at 7pm. Please buy your tickets ASAP. We will have tickets at the door, but would appreciate you purchasing them ahead of time!!

Much love,

Tara

Paul's Homecoming

Paul has been medically cleared to fly back home! We are in the process of making plans for his flight home. I don't have anymore details at this time, but we are hoping he will be back by the end of the month.

Hi Everyone,

If you plan on attending the event on February 26, please have your money in for tickets by the 23rd! We will have a limited number of tickets available at the door, but we hope that you will pay in advance so that we can get a head count on how many people will be attending. This will help us determine how much beer and food we need to provide.

Thanks!!
