This really isn't completely heart related so thought I'd post Justin's latest update here.,
Justin is in Cooperstown!!! Really what more needs to be said? (Like THAT will stop me lol)This means so much to me, because Justin fought very hard,to be able to be there. I am just so Thankful.
He has been doing really well.He still his working on his arm movement, but he can raise it almost straight up now. He still has pain in his leg since the bypass and it tends to swell. So we will have to talk about that at the appt next week and see what's going on there, and of course he still gets tired but that is improving. BUT All in All considerring his surgery for the infection was June 29th and Cal's HOF ceremony is July 29th ,we ARE Blessed.
After much thought and discussion it was decided it would probably be best to have a wheelchair with them. It is a pretty long day, alot of walking, standing and lines and pretty hot. As I said to Justin, it is better to have it there and not need to use it much ,than get there and be sore, tired and miserable and not have it. Since his leg hurts when he stands alot or walks, he decided maybe it would be a good idea.
Monday or Tues night, Cal was on QVC for a special show from his stadium in Aberdeen MD. Rhys and Justin decided to go, it is about 1 1/2 hours from here. They had fun and it got them even more excited about being there for the ceremony. I thought it was good to work up to a long car ride and crowds. After the show, they raffled off 10 Cal special Hall of Fame caps and Justin won the last one.
HOPEFULLY they are taking lots of pictures, but I'm a little nervous, since I am the official family Photog, but I'm sure Caroline will get pictures.I am so grateful they invited our family to go with them. I really think this trip had alot to do with how well Justin recoverred thru all he went thru this summer. Thanks Hascherts!!!
Love Lyn and the dogs
ps I got the new Harry Potter book,I waited until the day they were leaving since I thought that would be the perfect time to read it.
