ginnyd Posted April 25, 2003 Posted April 25, 2003 Today, Earl and I went to one of our customers (we have a computer software company which has basically been on hold since he got sick in 9/02). This customer is about 2 hours away so Earl had a long ride. When we got there they had a big welcome back celebration for Earl. Banners and tons of food. And EVERY woman in the place came out to hug him. He could only stay a few hours because he gets so tired. But he felt so very good about getting back to some work and said "I had no idea they liked me so much" Yes it is a HAPPY DAY. Quote
David A Posted April 25, 2003 Posted April 25, 2003 Ginny, Tell Earl he has lots of good friends here too! Happy that he is doing so well. Take care and don't let Earl wear you out! Quote
Tiny Posted April 25, 2003 Posted April 25, 2003 Yep, we all like Earl and Ginny! It's good to get some encouragement from "outside the nest", though! Quote
Laurie Posted April 26, 2003 Posted April 26, 2003 Earl and Ginny, So glad to hear you had a happy day! Wishing you many more! Quote
Rosanne Posted April 26, 2003 Posted April 26, 2003 Glad you and Earl had a great day. Hope for many more. Rosanne Quote
cathy Posted April 26, 2003 Posted April 26, 2003 Hi Ginny and Earl....Dont you just love those happy days,,,Its strange how we use to take those things for granted(at least I always did)...hoping we all can have more of them...cathy Quote
kimblanchard Posted April 26, 2003 Posted April 26, 2003 Hi Ginny and Earl, I am so glad that Earl had this experience. My Bill hasn't worked since his diagnosis in November and just yesterday he decided to get on the computer to make a brochure to send to his boss. It gave him such a good feeling to be productive. Blessings to you both, Peg Quote
Rick Posted April 26, 2003 Posted April 26, 2003 Ginny and Earl, that was great!! These kind of trips and outings make everything else seem so small. Things like a trip to the zoo or mall that we used to take for granted are now realized how wonderful they really are. Maybe the whole world could do with some of these feelings and everything would be a little more important. With my Father-in-law (Katieb's Dad), we used to not go anywhere at all together and now we do everything together!! Its like everyone needs to stop and smell the roses. If I was looking for 1 positive from the disease, this would be it. Earl , Ginny, Keep it up... Rickey Quote
