Update

Well, I finally did it and we both survived. I borrowed Tara's car and by myself took Sherman to not one but two doctors today. The first doctor went to is a new one. It was recommended that I talk to him and he examine Sherman to see if Botox injections might help his right arm. After trying to move the arm and putting Sherman in a lot of pain it was determined that the injections would probally help. I did not know but Botox is a muscle releasers. We go back on Monday to get the injections. The will probally last for up to six months and during that time the "tired" muscles will have a chance to recover. Then we went back to the doctor that did the kidney surgery and he has dismissed Sherman for a year. Then he will go in and he will have another look at the stones in the left kidney. I did ask it the pecan was a native or hybrid and he said native. :) Of course if either of the stones move then we will have to take action.

I have definitely decided that I am going to get rid of the Trail Blazer and get a van that is equipped to lift the wheel chair in so I don't have to. That was not a fun thing to do. If nothing else I will learn by experience. As of right now all is good. I will let you know how the injections work.

Please continue to pray for both of us,
thanks,
Dolores
