Wow--vacations from school get us all confused--I was thinking that today was Monday, and here it is Tuesday already!! We have had a good week. Jeremy has been working on the "walking" a little more this week. He actually walked into the Dentist office on Monday--they were very surprised! At therapy, he is walking more and more with the aide of the crutches. This week, we return to Syracuse to see the neurosurgeon who did the work in his spine. After that meeting, we are hoping that he gets clearance to get his hand controls for his vehicle--that will definitely give him more independence! (of course that makes mother nervous--but I know he will be careful)
As for Ron, he's feeling better--sort of! His blood count is going back down, which is a good thing. He is still out of work for this week, but will try to go back to at least driving bus next week. The milking is still iffy--it's a lot of up and down and twisting and turning, so he may leave that to Zach and Josh for a while longer.
Thanks again for the prayers and concerns voiced!
Love you all

Miracles are really at work for The Hoffmans. Great, great strides for Jeremy and his walking , and it's wonderful that Ron's doing better too. God bless Zach, Josh and all of the Good Samaritans who are your Earth Angels. God bless you ALL !!! Your Prayer Partner
I need to second Val's comments. I don't know if Zach is reading this... but I want everyone to know how important Zach is to us, Without Zach and Josh the last several months none of us would have come as far as we have. Thank You from the bottom of our hearts!! You have truly been a lifesaver. Dad and Jer you continue to be an inspiration to all of us. Keep us the great progress and You make us so incredibly proud. I love you both! Mom, What can I say about the glue that hold us all together, You are the strongest person I have ever met. I love you!! Niki
