July 30, 2009 Craig is working every day

Craig is working every day and slowly is improving. We went out to see the orthopedic surgeon in Rapid City who first considered myeloma to get a second opinion on the Mayo Clinic's assessment of Craig's back. They were in agreement. No more vertebralplasties are needed.

We stayed with Neil, but didn't get to see much of him. We arrived late in the evening and the appointment went longer than expected and we didn't have lunch with him.

We're looking forward to our trip to Omaha next week for Anne and Scott's Omaha reception. It will be a fast trip since Neil will drive to Pierre on 8.6.09. We'll all drive to Omaha on the 7th and return on the 8th so Neil won't have to drive from Omaha to Rapid in one day. It will be good to meet more of Scott's family. Gail

July 18, 2009, a cool Saturday for July

There are 2 weeks to summarize. Last Saturday, Carl and family were invited to Tim Bieser's wedding. Tim is a classmate of Carl's and they were the only 2 boys from their Cub Scout pack to stay in scouts throughout high school. The bride was radiant and the groom was beaming.

Craig has been in the office every day for a couple weeks. He gets a little stronger every day. Last week, he met with the Avera oncologist who now lives in Pierre. Craig will have his 3 month checks here and infusions of bone strengthener in Pierre. We're glad to eliminate trips to Sioux Falls. Gail

We think all the pictures are wonderful. The bride was radiant and the groom was handsome.

We have not been posting as often as promised. Over the 4th of July weekend, we drove out to the Black Hills and visited Neil. We toured the Hills and saw many familiar sights. The fireworks in Rapid City were exciting on the 4th.

Craig is doing better every day. Everything from his home office has been taken
back. There's room to move around and we can see the floor again. Gail
