Superman started getting his super juice (Solu medrol) today. One day down, four to go. Praying this gives him some strength. xoxoxo, Yvonne
My favorite place to sleep! I found the hospital beds really uncomfortable but the recliner and a couple of pillows made resting a lot better!
Praying now that this helps him much, Yvonne. May you also have much strength for the journey, day by day. Hugs!
How is Superman doing? I hope the super juice is giving him some relief.
Day 2, bowels kicked in tonight!!! Last night he was awake most of the night, not knowing where he was. Confused and crazy dreams. Three more infusions with the last one being Wednesday morning after his 6:30 am MRI of his brain. Taper of prednisone to follow infusions. I nap... Read more.
Thanks Yvonne - prayers and Godspeed on his recovery.

My SUPERman is giving his cape a rest for a bit but we have faith he'll be back in business soon 😀
Yvonne, I'm so sorry Craig has been suffering a setback. Praying for him now and hope he'll be home very soon.
Craig looks great even tho he's in hospital clothes with monitors! Must be the company he keeps :) Hope you're out soon, Craig!
The plan is to stay in hospital until the 27th to finish the IV antibiotics and then discharge to a rehab facility until he is strong enough to walk. We are praying between now and the 27th his strength comes back so we can get him home!!!
Thank you Catie and Ellen. We are disappointed about being in over the holidays but we will carry on.

Watching all the grandchildren this weekend. Here's a picture from our walk tonight. Josie and Charlotte are 3 and they only sat on Craig's walker for the picture. Imogene will be 1 in a month and Gus turned 1 in August. We are blessed :0)
Wonderful pic, beautiful grandkids. Congrats on doing so well!
