Payers on the way for your son. I hope he is 100% soon!

My son called last night after a workout. Yes, his dr. told him that working out would be good for him, so he's taking it light. He won't go as often or work out as hard but he needs exercise. He said the same thing that he's been saying, that his grip just isn't what it should be, which is keeping him from lifting the heavy weights, so in my opinion, it's sort of a blessing in disguise because I don't want him to overwork the muscles and cause inflammation again. The stress is just unbearable for me. I can't handle stress the way I used to. And now w/my Puddy being sick again, it's been difficult to keep my spirits up for my son. Anyhow, all in all, a good report for Glenn. But when you say your prayers, please keep him in them, ok? Thanx, my wonderful PT friends. You're the best.

Mary,

That is wonderful news!! Don't forget to take care of YOU!!! Glenn sounds like he's on the road to a speedy recovery. I mean, look how far he's come so far, huh??

You and Glenn are still in my thoughts and prayers.

Love and (((((((HUGS)))))))))))))))

Thanx, Donna. I don't know how I would've made it through all this w/out the help and prayers and encouragement of my PT friends. You and a few others, such as Candace and Karen, have been especially helpful, Donna, and I truly appreciate it. I'm here for all of you, too. I hope you all know that.

Maybe Glenn will learn to take it easier now, and have a bit more balance in his life.

Mary, was he named after the astronaut John Glenn? The double "n" isn't something that's often seen.

You take your vitamins and eat regularly (even if small meals) and feel better soon.

No, actually, my (now) ex-husband and I couldn't agree on names. I wanted to name him after our fathers, either Charles Vincent or Vincent Charles but he didn't like that. He wanted to name him a typical Italian name such as Rocco or even Aloysius, if you can imagine. I didn't like those. So when I was in the hospital, a nurse came in and said "You really need to name your son" and Glen Campbell's show was on TV at that time so when I saw his face on the screen, I wrote down "Glenn Anthony", even though Campbell spells his first name w/one N. Anthony is my ex's brother's name so I figured that would placate him somewhat. I always liked the name Glenn anyhow. I know it seems I didn't put much thought into naming my son but I did. Our ideas just didn't mesh, though.

All I can think of is that it has been a long way from "there" to "here"........and the news just gets better and better about Glenn's recovery.

We won't let up on the prayers until we hear that he is 100%.
