More Good News

Nate and Curtis made it to Boston despite all the difficulties with United and their computers and got to see Larry last night. This morning they are back and there is more good news. Larry is supposed to get moved to cardiac step down this afternoon! Nate will be able to be in his room when this happens.

There is also some talk of possibly getting Larry back to Des Moines early next week. The preferred method being discussed is air ambulance. He would be met at the airport and be transported to Methodist so they could monitor how he is doing and make sure everything is okay before he heads home. None of this is definite but at least a plan is starting to form! Keep it up, Larry!!

Peg, Curtis and Nate are hoping to attend the Boston Pops rehearsal tonight so that they can hear the music. They should get to see the fireworks tomorrow night but it is difficult to get close enough to hear the music and see the fireworks so they will try to take in the music tonight. They are expecting some rain, as are we, so they are hoping to get a duck ride in today.

  1. Great News!!!
    I wondered about the computers at the airport, we experienced the same problem once. I imagine seeing Curt and Nate was good medicine.
    Happy 4th of July to all.

  3. What good news! We have been following the blog and want to let you know that Jeannie's brother, Patrick Quaine, lives in the Boston area and says to call him if he can do anything - even a night out to dinner! And he makes a great tour guide too. Seriously, if there is anything he/we can do, let us know.
