Sorry the post is a little late today. Andrew and I spent a couple hours at Hermann Park this afternoon. Beautiful day! I desperately want to take Eric OUTSIDE, but until I can, I took a lot of nature photos for him to look at. Below is a sampling.

Eric continues to improve, overall, but has good hours and difficult hours throughout the day. It's not easy. He's working hard with PT, pushes through the pain. He struggles with long periods of shortness of breath and coughing spells. The doctors all tell him he's doing great. All his numbers look good, anyway. But the truth is, Eric just doesn't feel very well most of the time. He continues to not sleep well and his appetite is poor. Hopefully all this will change soon.

Great pictures! I hope it won't be long before Eric can experience them firsthand. Andrew looked like he was having fun on the balance beam. I know he had to really enjoy having some time with you. Three cheers for Eric for all the hard work he is putting into getting well. That day WILL come. Hi to the whole family.

Love, bev

Hello, and a prayer that your lovely photos lift Eric's spirits and inspire him to look toward - and work toward - the day he gets out to enjoy God's creation.
Eric's pleasure when that day comes will be so great;joyful appreciation beyond our imagining, I'm sure!!
Till then, prayers continue for strength of mind, body, and spirit.
