Fall has arrived

Hi All: I know it's been a while since we've updated, but as one person said--when there are no new posts that means things are going good AND, that is the case! Last month, Jeremy was thinking that he would have to have more surgery, but his neurosurgeon wants to give his body another 6 months to heal and then see how things look--I guess from the phone call that some of the fusions aren't healing the way the doctor thought they should--not as quickly as he had anticipated--but then he didn't expect Jeremy to be up and moving around as much as he is!! Jeremy helped his dad a lot this fall putting in the corn--he was the tractor man and Dad was the gopher--talk about a reversal of roles! There was one day that he even climbed into a silo--not a wise move, but he made out okay--got out without falling out! We continue to be impressed with his ability to get around--still uses the cane, but can go across the room without it (especially when the nieces and nephews steal it from him). His bus driving is going good--but he knows his limits and if he isn't feeling quite up to par, he calls in--they understand it, and admire him for not trying when he's sore and doesn't feel he can drive safely.
Saturday will be his one year anniversary--a day that probably won't leave my memory anytime soon! We will be spending the day with friends--thanking God for our miracle!! We will also reflex on those we have met along the way who have been in the same/or worse situations as Jeremy and ask for prayers for them! It's funny how tragedy brings people together and makes them friends.
As we come to the season of thanksgiving, lets remember to thank the one who matters most!! Thanks again for your loving thoughts and continued prayers--someday we will be 99.9%! Carm
