Hi from the West Napoleon Library.....once again sorry for the lack of updates.

Bill is still making daily progress. Especially since going back to Chateau de Notre Dame. His appetite is very good and he is much stronger now for the first time since the stroke. I think those two factors are contributing greatly to the success he is having in physical therapy.

His walking with assistance on the walker is much improved. He is kicking the left leg on his own now.....it is still weak...but he is also shifting his weight from the left to the right leg to make forward progress. The arm is still weak so he cannot support his weight on his own with the walker so he does require assistance. But it is coming along surprisingly well.

His spirits are back to being Bill...except for the urgency that he wants to get to the Krewe in Texas.

We did find a facility in Tomball Texas and are impatiently awaiting Bill acceptance the facility here has to get the facility there all of Bill's records and then they decide if it is the best choice for his needs.

Then I'm not sure how, yet. ....but then we will be on our way. I find it a little scary which is weird because I've been wanting to go since Katrina and Bill wasn't ready.....Now he is ready and I find it scary.....HUM no explanation for that !

I would be remiss if I did not take a moment to thank all of our children, family members, neighbors and friends who have made this move possible....without you we could not have done it ! Thanks again for being there for us.

Note: to our musician friends.........
