We've had a very exciting week and it's been very hard not to spill the beans.

Bill had only 2 days of rehab this week and did well both days. He also saw the dr and nurse and got good reports from them. After the appointments Wednesday, we headed for HOME! We got here on Thursday afternoon and have enjoyed surprising people. The look on Emily's girls faces was priceless and we surprised the church this morning.

We have been so blessed this year, mainly just to have another year together with our family and friends. Bill continues to improve now and being home is really helping him.

We will have to go back to Florida to finish rehab and then he's going to be re-evaluated for a transplant. If he is accepted, we will have to stay in Florida indefinitely. If they don't accept him he will have to finish his rehab and then we would come home around March. It's still not a sure thing that he will be accepted.

We hope that all of you have a joyous Christmas with family and friends. We also pray for a Blessed New Year. Probably won't update this while we are home. We're gonna be busy!
