This doesn't look like my Rick - but this is so much better than it was just a couple days ago - I am so thankful for all the prayers, too.
Where the yello is - he was swollen that far back - on his face. This is really an improvement.

The smile looks good on you Rick! Having a good outlook is the very firdt step forward! Looks as though you did have a very nasty place to start off with. Just do not ever forget that the Lord is a kind and loving Lord and he will be by your side just as long as you need and want Him there. Believe you can and you will!!!!!!!! Prayers for you, Linda
Thank you Linda - so very much!
Goodness Gracious Rick, you need to put up those dukes next time. LOL... So nice to see you smile. God IS so good! There is nothing, and I mean NOTHING, like the power of prayer... PTL...Keep looking up the Lord is only a prayer away... Hope you heal quickly... Hugs, Terre

What a nasty bruise. I am glad he is healing. It looks as tho that black and blue mark will take a bit of time to heal completely. I will continue to keep you both in my prayers. Hugs, Mary

Yes Mary - with a broken blood vessel - it takes longer for the blood to clear away - but it will over time. Thanks for the prayers dear.

Shirlene, bless his heart. I'm glad he is healing from his fall. It is great to see a smile on his face and he has such a sweet smile too. No wonder you love him so much. God is good. You all take care. Hugs, Judy

Thanks Judy, he is a dear one and through this all - he has been in good spirits - I am the one falling apart at times. Hehehe!

Considering all the trauma he has had to his body he is looking pretty good even the bruised eye. Did he lose any of his vision or have blurry symptoms? Sure does look uncomfortable. Looks like your doing a good job caring for him.

OH - I think - once the swelling went down - he was able to see pretty good - he slept for a couple days - so he might have had some blurry vision - thanks dear - I am trying.

Thank the Lord that the bruising is going down - that must have hurt! He looks like someone who's had plastic surgery!!!! I hope he heals really quickly - the body is an amazing thing isn't it?

Another CUTIE suggested fresh pineapple - so we have been eating it - I think it is helping, too. The body goes through so much in a life time and keeps on working - it is amazing. Thanks dear one.

Shirlene, It is good to hear from you and that Rick is doing better. That picture of his eye brought tears to my eyes. I am praying that you two will get better as each day passes. You take care of yourself too. I know it is a great job to take care of Rick but his looks like a real keeper. Love you guys. Mildred

Mildred, thanks - he is a keeper - for one - God wouldn't have allowed me to keep him - if he were not - we are doing the best that we can - at this time. *4U

Oww!. I am glad to hear and see he is healing. My prayers now include that he will stay on his feet, no more falls. Tell him that he is worth each and every prayer we send up for him and for you.

Tell Rick he can always say, "If you think I look bad, you should see the OTHER guy!" So glad to know he is smiling after all he has been through (and YOU)! Best wishes for better days ahead for you both!

Deanna, I know you meant this as funny - which it normally would be - but now - I have had a few phone calls and one investigation into whether or not I am abusing Rick - thanks for the prayers. *4U
I'm sure these remarks must be very hurtful to you. I hope we have seen the last of these 'jokes'. Not funny.

Shirlene...I would never suggest anything different, and it is protocal for hospitals and any kind of medical facility to investigate things on their own...Any person in the medical field, schoold field, police, fire, dhs, foster care or any type related is required by law to do so...I live clear over here and I doubt I was the cause of the investigations in the first place...the moment Rick was seen was the first time it was reported....
so sorry...i NEVER MEANT TO UPSET YOU..AND bevintex...pardonmwa
You did'nt upset me. I just feel for Shirlene with all she has gone through in the past 10 months. No apology needed on my part
