Rhonda Writes -
No news is good news.... Sorry for missing a day of updates. Eric is settling in fine to his new "home away from home". The staff at Select is unbelievable and have made us feel so good about him being there. All assessments are completed and now the "real work" begins.
Eric's cousins (aka brothers) are coming into town tomorrow for a week. I think seeing them will definitely lift Eric's spirits. They won't let him sleep through a visit!! I started opening cards with Eric last night.
Wow---I am amazed at how many of you have sent cards, prayers and well wishes. Some of Eric's customers and friends he's worked with throughout the years have mailed cards and letters. It made him so happy. He's having a tough time processing all of this, as you can imagine. Hearing how many folks care about him and miss him does his heart good. I cry as I read the comments on the blog as well as the cards that arrive. I'm planning on printing all of this once Eric's better so he can recapture lost time and also see how many people are praying for his recovery. Its remarkable how friends have come into our lives and are now playing such important roles in Eric's care (and keeping me sane)! We will never be able to thank all of you enough.
Now--I'm off to the hospital. Getting back into the swing of things at work this week has been difficult. I know how much he needs me right now but we'll make it. How could we not with all of this awesome support!!!
Much love,
Rhonda

Dear Rhonda,
It is wonderful hearing that Eric is doing so much better. I wish I could came and see you guys! At times like this Atlanta seems a million miles away. Just know that we love you and continue our prayers for Eric's recovery.
Love you!

We are so thankful to hear such good news! We want to try and get up there to see you guys as soon as we can. We know he is going to be overwhelmed with visitors right now, so we will wait a few days before we come see him. But tell him we are still thinking about him and definitely praying for him. We are so glad that things are finally looking up for you. We love you and can't wait to get together soon!!!

Hey Rhonda, I worry when you don't post an update. But I figured no news was good news. I'm so happy to hear of all the good things, Eric's cousins coming, opening cards, being able to have visitors. I pray for him to grow stronger and stronger. You two really are special. That's why everyone loves you so much!!! And that's why I love you so much! You maketh me smile! I hope to see you again soon.
Love you long time,
Patti
