We've Hit a Small Speed Bump

First off, let me apologize for the lack of posts over the last few days.  As some of you know, I live in central Pennsylvania and things have been a little chaotic here lately.  We were very fortunate to be spared by Hurricane Sandy and we are doing great, but the cell service has been pretty spotty so it has been difficult for me to get any in-depth updates. I'm sorry to leave you hanging!

Now, on to Glenn...

We were lucky enough to have Glenn home for a few days, but right away, Mom noticed that something wasn't quite right about him.  We think going home was too much too soon and although he is doing incredibly well physically, his brain is still healing and he just wasn't quite ready to come home.  Even though we have hit this small speed bump on Glenn's road to recovery, we are regrouping and planning our next move.  The doctors are trying some new medications, which should help.  He also started chemo and radiation today, which have left him dizzy and light-headed, but also very aware and optimistic.

Because Glenn's wound is on the inside, it's hard to believe that anything is wrong.  He looks great and can still talk to you and carry on a conversation.  However, his brain is still in a very fragile state while it tries to re-wire and because of this, the hospital has restricted all visitors.  Right now, he just needs rest.

What Glenn can use is the usual:  positive thoughts, prayers, and words of encouragement.  It's easy to get discouraged with any kind of setback, so he needs to know that we are still behind him while he fights on.
