I transposed her letter to me here for the group: -Phil "6-11-2005 Saturday-Sunday Dead Phil, I Thought I would up-date you on Doug. You have been so kind. Doug was released this past Wednesday. They brought me in and showed me how to give him shots in his tummy and how to change the bandages on his arm and side.His hand is being held on with a steel rod attached to his hand and arm. It seems to bother him a lot. he has to go back for several surgeries to his wrist and hand. he has lost 22 pounds in the last 19 days. He has a long road ahead of him. My daughter seems to be doing better, and it is good to have them home. Doug requires round the clock care right now, though. I was forced to resign from my job today. But, I believe my place now is with Doug. Also, when one door closes, another door opens. God provides! Doug wanted me to fight to go back, but I cannot leave him alone. I just cannot do it. Well, it is almost 3 AM, so I am going to try to force myself back to sleep. My hands are going numb on me from the carpel tunnel and I guess from pulling on Doug so much and using the weed eater a lot. But I would give one of mine to Doug if I could, just to hear him play his guitar again. The man could make a guitar talk to you! You take care and send everyone our love. Sincerely, Sandra Keller PS: You are welcome to share anything with the others. I know you guys love Doug. Sandie." ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- There you have it, group... Phil Bader -- Philip Bader Jan Phyl TV Inc.
