tentative plans

Dan says "I won't believen til we are on the airplane..." But, at the moment at least, we are scheduled to return on an 11:00 am flight out of Boston, arriving in Columbus at 1:00 pm.

Overall, Dan is still feeling weak and nausious. However, all the various tests run yesterday came back negative. The ID doc said that, given the test results, unless Dan experienced some major symptom he has not yet had (very high fever, or something else) he was ok with sending Dan home, and taking a "wait and see" attitude about the remaining symptoms.

Some things that need to happen, so if you can help out, call Cheryl at 767-9293:

** We still need a ride to YS from Columbus Airport.

** When I was home last the handrail for the inside stairs was not yet installed. This is VERY important... Dan won't be able to go upstairs until we have it (because he won't be able to get down).

** I would like to work on both Monday and Tuesday and I don't know yet if the "Dan-sitting" network is in place.

** The IV therapy/infusion people will need to bring medicine and equipment to our house before we arrive home. Someone needs to be there to recieve it.

Several people have offered exercise bikes. Thank you. Hopefully Cheryl has also worked that out.

Thanks for every thing and we hope to see you soon. Please plan to come and visit sometime in the near futre, just give us a call first.

Much Love, Abi and Dan
