Update on Scott 10/17/07

Hello Everyone! Just wanted to send a little update on Scott. I feel as though every time I send something it is for something going wrong, bad news that needs prayer, so today is different. My update is all good news! Starting last week, Scott has been doing so good. His kidney doctor prescribed a low dose high blood pressure medicine that he takes at night, and his blood pressure since has seemed to be under control. Also, last Tuesday he went to physical therapy and kicked some serious butt! His therapist couldn't believe all he was doing, as a matter of fact she hadn't seen him for 2 weeks (because he had been so sick) and she thought he had been somewhere else, with another therapist! We also had a couple meals out, which are challenging because Scott has a hard time with holding silver wear and getting his chair under tables, etc. He worries that people are staring. But we have had good practice and great success each time, and it really builds his confidence, and mine. I actually get really nervous on these outings, too. We went to the dentist, which we were both a little nervous about that, could they accomodate us in the wheel chair, the x-rays, etc. but it all went well. So, I just thought you would all like to know that your prayers are being answered as are mine. I know a lot of you pray for my peace as well as Scott's health, and it really has gotten us both through each day. Thanks so much for your love and support, and please continue to cheer Scott on!!!Love,Wendy
