Craig Vetter report from Carol Vetter:
"More wonderful changes at Rancho Vetter... Mr Craig seems to have stopped taking naps during the day... is exercising regularly and is quite interested in the computer. We are almost done with most of his meds and I am taking him off the ones that help him sleep. I don't think he will have any trouble sleeping without them. I also see that another one of his meds can cause dizziness. He is dizzy every time he gets up. So I am cutting that one in half and will stop it soon too... Craig does not react well to drugs and I think he is on the mend at an amazing speed. I suspect some of those drugs are holding him back...
He had a great idea today. He suggested that we take a drive every day or evening. Just a drive... maybe to go say hello to friends or just to get out together. We went out tonight after dark and drove through downtown Carmel which always looks like Christmas to me at night. It was really fun. So watch out all you locals, you never know who might knock on your door some night soon. It won't be late though... Craig falls asleep at 8 and I am fading fast at 10.
Today we Skyped with our friends John and Sonia in the UK. They were so patient on the other end watching me test various headsets and ear buds to find something that would allow Craig to hear them. It was a wonderful time as these 2 are very special friends.... like family... actually... closer to us than family. Sonia came over and helped me nurse Craig back to health when he had his hip replacement 2 years ago. Today they offered to fly over to take care of us. It makes me cry just thinking about it. Who does stuff like that??? What do the kids call that? BFF? Craig said, "Tell them YES" I don't know.. that is an awful lot to ask... I visualize John taking care of Craig and me and Sonia headed off for a couple of days at the spa... What do you say Sonia?
Later this afternoon our friend Ed came for a visit. Ed had a stroke and knows what Craig is going through. Craig loved having him here. They walked down to the shop and back up chatting the whole way. I think Craig even let do some talking. God bless you Ed.
Off to bed to try and get a couple of chapters of Dr Caroline Leaf's book Switch on Your Brain read before I pass out...
Soli Deo Gloria."
