Hello Everyone,

Just wanted to give you a quick update. We are getting ready to leave and head back to Charleston today for a doctor’s visit tomorrow. If all checks out OK we will be home tomorrow evening.

God has answered so many prayers I can’t even start to explain, but God is Great all the Time.

God has given me life, happiness, & health.

Thank You God.

God Bless You,
Pel

Greetings from Possum Kingdom,

We made it home this evening and had a good trip down to Charleston & back to Possum Kingdom.

I have been so blessed, I have not taken any pain medication in over a week, and then it was because my back and neck hurt. I am now down to just my back hurting, they say it was the amount of time I laid on the operating table.

Well it is bed time now. I hope you have a great evening.

God Bless You,
Pel

Hello Again,

Just wanted to post an update on my doctor visit in Charleston today. They conducted blood work and they are pleased with everything. They told us to go home, have labs drawn on Thursday 2/15/07 in Greenville and return to Charleston to see the doctor on Monday 2/19/07 and maybe they will remove the the 68 staples from my Mercedes incision.
God Bless You,
Pel

Greetings From Charleston,

WOW how wonderful it was to go home on Thursday and not have to return until today. I hope that all will check out in the morning ( 2-12-2007) and we will be headed back to Possum Kingdom by early afternoon. We must still remember that this is God’s plan, I am just along for the ride.

I would like to one again say thank you for the thousands of prayers that went to the same spot, I would like to also say thank you for the funds, blood drives, BBQ & Auction, and any thing else that was done for us. You are so dear to our hears and we love you each and every one.

I would also like to say thank you to the doctors and staff at Rutledge Tower, and all the hard work that was conducted for me to receive this transplant.

I would like to say thank you to the surgeons, doctors & staff in the O.R., ICU & 6 East. It has been a honor for me to be a patient that was so undeserving of the care, friendship & love hat was given to me and my family.

I would like to ask you to keep praying for us and please remember my donor’s family, they suffered a great loss for me to continue life, because I received the Gift of Life.

All they can tell us about my donor was he was a male 42 years old. God Bless his soul & his family. Thank You

Are you an organ donor? If yes or no talk it over with your family today, they will make that final decision, but one donor can give the gift of life to so many at one time.

God Bless You,
We Love You,
Pel & Family
