I asked my dad what to write today and his response was “Slow and steady wins the race!” I think the terms slow and steady are good descriptions of progress around here.
Dad was up and around this afternoon- we went for a short walk outside, then he perched at the kitchen island to learn how to make two of his favourite things to eat- hummus and greek salad. After dinner, my uncle arrived with the most glorious strawberries, picked today from a local farm. Now, my Dad is helping my Mom clean and freeze them! We’re letting him do stuff that isn’t too strenuous as he needs a distraction and is a little restless. Despite this activity, he did admit that today, he feels tired to the bone. So, more rest and quiet is in store for tomorrow.

hey Unger family!
Just wanted to say a quick hello here as we've been stalking the blog for a week now and haven't left a comment! We so appreciate the updates and have been praying for ALL of you every single day. Please keep writing and posting your wonderful pics. Your dad looks fantastic, even though i know there must be pain. If you could pass along a big but careful hug to him for us that would be great!!
