    hello friends,

    just a real quick update from rehab.  After 25 days inpatient I was moved to rehab on Thanksgiving.  What a beautiful day!

    I want to thank you all for your thoughts and prayers.  Special thanks to Charlie and keeping everybody updated.  Looks like he will have a few weeks here while I regain strength and hopefully the ability to walk.

    Special thanks to software program Dragon speaking naturally which allows me to communicate so easily without the use of the keyboard.

    I'll keep you all posted as time allows.

      Well, Other Jerry, I was getting worried when I didn't receive responses from you.  NOW YOU'VE MADE MY DAY.  Great to see you on here again.  Been praying for the bike rides to get going again.

      Jerry,

       

      I have been away & sadden by your news but thrilled you are gettting better.

      Was your illness related to your melanoma treatment. If so, I am sure others would be interested in knowing which treatment caused your problems just in case others having the same treatemnt could have a similiar side effect.

      If this information is too personal, I can understand why yoou would not want to share.

       

      Most importantly, hoping you continue your recovery quickly. Are you still getting treatment for melanoma?

       

      God Bless you.
