Updates
Chuck Zintech Thank you for all your prayers. Chuck is on the mend. He was released from the hospital and was sent to a Rehab facility to help get the mobility back on the right side of his body. He was making tremendous progress and then ended up catching Covid while at the facility. Due to Covid his release from the rehab facility was delayed as well as the removal of the 35 staples in his head. Once they were able to get the surgeon there to remove the staples, he had to stay an additional 3 days for observation. He is currently at home with 90% of his mobility back & some short term memory issues. His sister Debbie who was visiting from Buffalo, NY when the episode occurred has extended her trip and is currently staying with Chuck for the next few weeks. Doctors believe that with time he will recover 100% from the brain surgery. (Michelle Dillard)
Jim Tierney Jim is recovering from a broken hip and has been cleared to go home next Wednesday, March 29th. The doctors and our family think he will have more motivation to get up and around if he is at home. My brother built a ramp for him to get in and out of the house. He'll also have a home health care nurse come in a few times a week for a while. Keep him on the list for now. (Jamie's dad)
