Family Update!

Well, I thought I would take a minute and spread the word about some things you may or may not know are going on.

First of all, Saturday morning while Leslie, Brian, the boys and a friend camped out at the farm for Connor's Birthday, they received a call that Mr. Robert had been taken to the hospital with what they felt sure was a stroke.

It was! He can not feel his left side from the face down and has trouble speaking clearly. After the tests were run they determined that of the two types of stroke - he had the better. His was caused by a clot not a bleed. With this he is expected to have great recovery. This leads us to the most recent information that I have. Tomorrow - Tues. he will be moved to Savannah to begin the intensive rehad in order to achieve full recovery.

Leslie is scheduled to have some surgery on Thurs. April 30 at EGRMC. This is expected to take about 3 - 4 hours. With overnight says in the hospital - maybe 3 days. I could give more details about the actual surgery, but I would really rather leave that up to Leslie (girl stuff).

Mill Creek park has become the second home for the Sands and Fordhams once again, so if you need us look there first.

I wish everyone a safe, happy, loving and fun filled week!

Much love and always peace
