[Nfbv-announce] Charlie's progress

[Sarah Patnaude]

>From Sandy Halverson1st Vice President, National Federation of the Blind of Virginia
I am pleased to tell you Charlie will be going home Friday and is looking forward to continued recovery from his real home.  He and Jacki thank you for calls, visits, and cards.  Their home number is 703-534-0747 and if neither is close enough to a phone to answer, leave a message; I’m sure you will hear from them as soon as possible. There are many doctor appointments and tests to be scheduled in the next several weeks to measure Charlie’s internal response to his cancer but we are all pleased with gains made in physical therapy. Charlie is now on a support cane for walking long distances and uses a walker when that is most efficient.  Keep Charlie and Jacki in your prayers and we know we will see them at our Arlington and Winchester chapter meetings as health and stamina permit.
