Dave is dictating this message to his bedside secretary:
"Thankyou to everyone for your kind thoughts.I should be travelling to the Detroit area Monday or Tuesday to the U of Michigan Rehabilitation Center in AA. At this point I have been in bed for almost 4 weeks so I can't walk very well. my appetite is coming back even if the food is not interesting. Today was my first day walking , I walked across the room with a walker and back again. I was exhausted. I don't remember anything of the first 3 weeks, but Melody says that I got great care. Thankyou so much for the notes of encoragement - Melody read them to me from the Blog and the cards you have sent. I will try to update via the blog as I make progress. Thanks again,
Dave

Dave,
I so glad you are getting better. I can't imagine being in bed that long. You need to get strong again
very quickly. We are always thinking about you and can't wait to see you again. I hope to hear from you soon.

Hi Dave and Melody,
Paul and I have been reading your blog daily and praying for both of you. We are so glad that Dave is being transferred closer to home, I know it will be so much better for both of you. I didn't want to bother you earlier but now that Dave's health is looking so much better, you will hear from us on a regular basis. Actually, you might get sick of hearing from your Hoosier friends :) I can't even begin to think of what you have been going through. The only positive is that Paul has decided that jogging in 85 degree weather while I'm at work is probably not a good idea since he is exactly the same age as Dave.
Lots of Love and Prayers,
Paul and Marilyn
Dave,
We really enjoyed our visit with you today. We were glad you were feeling good enough to joke about your possible? lack of patience with the whole recovery process. And you are right, it would be better drinking wine in Italy again then sitting in Muskegon. Hang in there (or hang out depending on how you wear that dumb hospital gown:) OK so now Sarah and Brian will be shocked about what we're putting on the internet:) Oh well, GET WELL!! praying always, love also,
Joyce and Andy
Hello David (my big SigEp brother) and Melody,
Dave, it's so good to see your words (as transcribed by your lovely bedside secretary). Having the blog is so great to be able to be with you two. I'm looking forward to when you are both home. I'll either get out to you or you can rest here in San Francisco when you're ready. Miss you cousin,
Donald Arndt
