Those who saw Tom at Dayton undoubtedly knew he shouldn't have been there. The nine-hour trip from Jefferson City, the four days at Hara, and the return drive nearly did him in.
After several weeks in the hospital for problems tangential but not directly related to his cancer, he is now at home benefiting from 24-hour home health care, as much for the sake of his XYL, Jeri, (K0RPH, herself a Registered Nurse) as for his. He is weak and requires assistance walking, but is no longer bed-fast and spends his day in a recliner in the living room. Having lost significant weight, the goal now is to regain it plus the strength to resume normal living. Treatments are to resume soon with his oncologist continuing to affirm a positive outcome. As many of you know, Tom is an extraordinarily optimistic person when it comes to handling adversity and major illness. Lesser men would have been dead twenty years ago. Much of that resilience he attributes to the prayers of others. They are most surely needed now. 73, Kent Trimble, K9ZTV Jefferson City, Missouri ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
