Clifford will be arriving home shortly, one day shy of eight weeks spent in the hospital. We will continue outpatient rehabilitation and be going for lots of strolls around the neighborhood to build up his endurance. This photo was taken on June 24th at the Bees baseball game, our first outing, courtesy of the recreational therapy folks. A quick thought upon bringing my teeny home...

Yes!! The post We've been waiting for :)--Welcome home Cliff! You guys are my heros!
So glad to hear the good news. I'm sure going home will be a great relief! We love you guys and continue to pray Cliff will get better everyday!
This is such great news! We are so happy for you and Cliff. It must feel sooo good for both of you! Love, Margy, Roger and Jack
How wonderful you must be feeling at the thought of having him home again. Love you two and let us know what day you will be arriving. If you want the ward has said that they will do some dinners and i would love to too.
Wow we can't wait until he is home. What a struggle you guys have been through. We have prayed for Cliff each day and night and it seems like this prayer had lasted forever!! Tell Cliff we love him adn our glad he is doing well enough to come home.
So glad to hear things are looking up!!
Your family is in our thoughts.
I'm home and I'm alive! It's been quite the tough time, but dear Jenna has literally given me constant care for 80 some-odd days, averaging 10-12 hours a day. She saved my life again after the first week by not backing down when the doctors didn't know something was up- She and wonderful Ronda (Jenna's mom) told the doctors to get in and check again, and they found the hardcore diseases and the results of seizure. Jenna is honestly my lifeblood and my strength. It is long and slow at home, but I am slightly improving my endurance and trying to be "smart like I used to be", i.e. work on the affected areas of brain injury. Thanks for you guys. And yes, even though my brain is fried I still love old cars. And think about 'em. And look at 'em. And can't wait to get the '27 Roadster on the road. And I think I'm gonna paint the '62 Olds red with a white top (Probably use Valspar base/clear). And I still need to mess with the trans and Lokar shifter adjustment on the '54 Bel Air. And... And... And...!
I really love this picture of the two of you! I am so glad Cliff is on the mend and you are home together. You are both amazing! We LOVE you guys and continue to pray for you.
