This morning was the same as any other….Joey got ready and I took him to PT with Mark. We came back to our room and had a light lunch. At 1:00, Joey had his massage. Right now he is doing OT with Cindy. Greta came in this morning to tell us goodbye. She brought me a beautiful scarf. We talked for a while and then she hugged us and left. We will definitely miss her very much. She said that she will try to make it back before Joey & I go home. We hope she does because we would love to see her again.
Tomorrow is Joey’s 2nd stem cell treatment and we are hopeful that his body will handle it better than the first. I will keep everyone posted.
If Joey is doing good by the weekend, we are planning to go see the Forbidden City and the Beijing Zoo. Most taxi drivers do not like picking up people in wheelchairs so we are paying the driver of the van, that picked us up from the airport, to take us. It will be easier on Joey anyway. We are very excited to have something to do. I will take more pictures and e-mail them to everyone.
Say another little prayer for Joey tomorrow.

Dana,
Thanks for keeping us up to date with Joey! We are thrilled with the good news about his feet and ankles! You are both in our prayers. I’m glad you are finally getting to see some of the scenery there! Can’t wait to see pictures! Give Joey a big hug from me!
Love,
Judy
