Released!

Dad had a follow-up appointment with his amazingly gifted orthopedic surgeon this morning in Lubbock. "Humpty Dumpty" is officially back together again! He has released to resume normal activities as tolerated. There was still a bit of skepticism regarding the Harley rides in the near future. We will keep you posted. There will be an additional follow-up appointment in September.


Love,

Alisa

We are HOME!!!


After a "minor" almost five month detour, mom and dad have officially arrived back in Wellington.  Dad quickly settled into scouting fields, attending farm shows and auctions.  Dad, Randy and crew are busy getting fields prepped for spring planting. We will keep you posted throughout the remainder of the year as he will continue to receive care for his fractured mandible.

Again, our sincerest and heartfelt thanks for all who have prayed for mom and dad and helped them while they were away from home.

Love,

Alisa

Unwired!





As you can see from the pictures, Dad's "braces" were wired to the teeth not glued. The wires ran between the teeth unlike our cosmetic braces that Dr. Astuto did for Cash and me. Our favorite Dr., Dr. Strasia, removed the "braces" and said everything looks great!!! Dad still needs to remain on a soft diet for the next 2-3 weeks. He has another appointment in two months. Again, they both just love him! He is a great Doctor.

Love,
Alisa
