Hey guys, ha ha ha thats pretty cool that you got to be the center of attention, but it must have been puzzling to wonder what the doctors are saying, oh well at least the treatments are going well, well I’ve been trying to get out and golf, but it has been raining and well today was sunny, but I was working, but when I got off work, guess what, it started to rain again aarrrrgggghhh!!! Anyway hope everything is going well, take care and love ya

Good Morning: It will be interesting for the two of you to speak with your doctor alone and hear what all the poking and prodding was about. It certainly did appear that you were their “centre of attention”. I hope that you get to see the before and after video so that Doug will see for himself the improvement he has made. We have had lots of rain over the past two days – our poor Dutch doesn’t like it – has been doing a lot of hopping from one foot to the other before he makes the mad dash out the door and back. It is quite the scene. Makes for good entertainment. I know you don’t particularly like the CFL Doug but the first Rider game is tomorrow night. Green will definitely be the color tomorrow – I think I will start off the day by wearing my jersey to work. I am a little over the top when it comes to the Riders. Ken just shakes his head. Take care – see you soon. luv u Auntie B.

Hi Dar and Doug

I have been watching with great excitement the progress Doug is making. Doug believe it or not you can see changes happening to you in the photos we see. I am sure that the progress might seem slow to you but as one of your doctor’s have said: “babies have to learn to sit, crawl and then they learn to walk and run”.

I know the work is hard and the tedeium of not moving your head etc is difficult but keep at it and look forward to your coming home.

KEN

Hi D & D, Hoping all continues to go well with and for you.
We finally got our share of rain–21/2 inches yesterday. [our gauge is still 'non-metric'] !! It is still cool -no golf today ! Have touched base with your Dad and had a great phone visit. Our regards, Margaret & Les

Good morning D&D We have been following your progression with great interest. Keep up the good work Doug!!!! We will also be looking forward to hearing reports once you arrive home.
It’s wet & cold here. I hate to complaine about the rain in the semi arid area of Medicine Hat, but we could sure use some sun. It was sad to see the picture of the flooded fields in China.
Have a save trip home. Thinking of you B&D

Hi Doug and Darleen… the rain picture looks like Calgary. Today is finally sunny and hopefully will be dry enough to cut the swath of grass that has grown – at least it is green. Mom says it is raining quite a bit in Regina and Estevan is getting it good as well. It is good to hear things are going well with you and that must have been some session with all those doctors. Almost like your own science experiment.

There was a controversial news story on Global TV about China and their stem cell work – debating whether or not it actually works. I believe you could prove them wrong. You look good Doug.

Brett is getting anxious to get on his trip to Estevan. I know he is very excited to see you both.

Thank you Darleen for such great updates. Have a safe journey home. Jody
