Sunday visit

Several of Jack's classmates visited the Gardner home this weekend and Jack was in great spirits.  He is very upbeat and walking around the house without use of his walker at times.  He is very independent and happy to be moving freely around the house.  I think everyone in the family feels so much better being home.  Tomorrow, Monday, the 27th, Jack will see Dr. Claire and she will discuss the plan of action.  The docs have expressed a desire to hit this thing hard and fast, which is good.  I will let you all know what the plan is after the appointment with the doctor tomorrow. 
Thanks once again for prayers and for all the meals you have signed up to bring.  The Gardner family is so grateful for all the love and support you have shown to them.  They had a wonderful visit from the folks at Bristol Oaks and Jack was welcomed home with a huge banner signed by all the students and faculty. Several students from King's Academy spent Saturday afternoon with Jack to cheer him and encourage him.  Families from CCS have sent goodie baskets and food while Jack has enjoyed visits from friends and parents from the school.   The out pouring of love from his teachers and friends has been so sweet.  The Gardners are so thankful for the love and prayers. 
Let us continue to pray for Jack and for the family.  Mary's mom will stay in town for the week and Tiffany, Jack's sis, will be in town next weekend. Jack has enjoyed home cooking from his sis, April, his granny, Mrs. Costello and other family members.  Paula, Mary's sister came in for the weekend and Mary's sisters, Jacqueline and Norma have spent most of their weekend with Jack. 
At church today, Fr. Pat called Jack up to the front of the church and many people prayed for Jack.  It was a very special service.  There wasn't a dry eye in the church as sweet prayers went up to the Lord on Jack's behalf. 
Jack feels so loved.  Thank you all for the wonderful affection, gifts and prayers you have so graciously given.  Lord's blessings on you.  much love and thanks, k
