Keeping up with the Jones' is NOT necessary!

Here is a note from Theresa about Bruce....
********
This isn't funny but just a note. 
 I guess Bruce wanted to keep up with the Joneses
with this health thing. 
 He had a couple small strokes in the last two weeks and in the hospital and has had lots of tests because the doctors haven't figured out all his symptoms don't jive with the stroke.
 He is in good spirits no other symptoms. 
 Today is the last one a full body pet scan.  He could not walk and lost his strength  in his right hand so I called 911.  
He went in on Thursday.  
This morning he was able to walk to the bed  they took him down with just holding onto the nurse's hands.  He is working his arm and hand and that is improving.  He has spinal stenosis and that might be causing the legs not working.  Also something in the injury from his accident last year is showing up.

He is in one of top 100 hospitals in the country outside of Denver and best in Colorado for strokes so we are fortunate
 this didn't happen in the middle of Texas. 
 We are very close to our daughter's so that is very helpful also.  Hopefully we will find answers in the next day or so. 
 Hope all the others are doing well.
