Leg is still healing

Rick is sleeping quietly. His leg is healing well. They are keeping us here in the Washington Hospital Center until he is physically able to get around without help. Fine with me. Our room is expensive, but very comfortable, with a fold out couch I can sleep on. Although the meals are not as healthy as our food at home, it is a blessing to have someone bring it and then take the dishes away when we are done. Because of our wonderful support base the stress has been as minimal as possible. Colleagues are covering my classes (Thanks Bill, and Mike, and Ron!) and friends are stopping by to pet the cat and prepare the house for our return (Thanks Matt, Rick, Bert, Kaye and Lloyd!). Hospitals are crazy, dangerous places, but we are doing OK. Thanks for all your calls and love. We look forward to seeing you in person when we get home.
