In spite of ongoing leg pain, Karen continues to gain strength and flexibility in her recovery from the blood clot effects. With the additional two concrete blocks on the pool steps, she can virtually get in and out of the pool by herself. I'm always just behind her, in case she has any difficulty.
With temperatures around 115 every day, the water is a welcome place to spend time. She uses the time to good advantage walking and swimming "laps' in our 33 foot pool. The water temperature is in the 92-94 range, but still is somewhat refreshing, though 86-88 would be nicer.
The summer is about half over now. I fully expect Karen to be walking well on her own by the end of August. This, of course, is without any kind of unexpected setback.
She loves to get phone calls and visits. Please feel free to visit, but with a call in advance to inbsure her availability. She still takes some naps, along with the many visits to doctors, thus the need to call in advance of visiting. She loves to hear from family, relatives, and friends.
Love, Bill
