Printer anyone?

Hi all! Mike is home and is eating and is in very good spirits. He played guitar for 2 services last Sunday, and he was overjoyed to do it! We were all thrilled to see him doing what he loves most. Sandi is doing well, too, but she is overwhelmed with paperwork, which brings me to a request.

Sandi and Mike could really use a 3-in-1 printer/scanner/fax machine. With all the paperwork they are doing now, Sandi finds herself having to run back and forth to a copying machine, on top of all the other things she must tend to in the daily care for Mike. It would be a huge help to have a machine right there in the home.

Sandi could probably also benefit from friends who could just enjoy a cup of tea or coffee with her. She could use a good listening ear once in a while. She has the tougher job in some ways of having to keep her mental faculties alert, her energy up, her spirits up, and her emotions in check in order to be there for Mike. It's probably a good idea to call ahead if you want to visit with Sandi, but don't let that stop you! Just so you know, she says they don't always answer the phone, but they do check consistently for messages.

Next week, if all goes as planned, Mike will be back in the hospital for chemo, starting on Monday. This might be an especially good time to whisk Sandi away since Mike will have nurses available to keep an eye on him.

She did say that they are doing great with their meal supply. Her freezer is packed to capacity, so thank you all for the food you have brought. If you are thinking of bringing more food, you might want to just give Sandi a quick call to see if she even needs anything.

Thanks, everyone!
