Rusty continues to recover, heal and improve while resting at home. And that's No Foolin' today! - I spoke with him briefly; his voice is much more normal than when I talked to him a couple weeks ago. There was virtually no stumbling over his words. He called me "Indy", which I consider a good sign. He is happy with his own progress and his self-awareness seems to be getting better. He knows he's coming back. - He is somewhat dismayed over the fact that he hasn't be able to get back online just yet. "I know I have a lot of e-mails to answer, I'm way behind." Rusty and Shelly do have a friend who is helping him with his computer, but it's liable to be awhile. - Progress happens every day. His balance is better, he goes to the bathroom by himself using his walker and every day is a stronger day. - There is still a bit of fogginess going on, but again - improvement every day. We've known from the get-go that this is a baby step process; now the steps are getting a little better and bigger. Shelly said they don't know about coming to Howard Days, but it's a goal that she will have to determine as Rusty's healing continues. I told her to be careful about that but that it's good to have a goal. - Get healthy first, Rusty, and that will make the future brighter. Let's continue or good wishes, healing vibes and helpful prayers for our dear friend Rusty! Indy Bill Cavalier Thanks as always for keeping us up to date with the latest on Rusty's recovery Terry!

Hello Dear Friends,
I have been working hard to be able to attend Howard Days, but have been advised by my physical therapist and others that it would be too soon. My recovery process is still ongoing, and I don't want to risk losing the progress I've already made. Also, sometimes even everyday activities can be tiring, so walking unaided around Cross Plains and attending events, let alone traveling across the country, seems unrealistic. This was not an easy decision, and I will miss seeing everyone. The good news is that I am doing a lot better and look forward to seeing you all next year, if not sooner. Our house in D.C. is open and we would love to have visitors!
I also want to say thank you for all of your ongoing support. Everyone’s positive thoughts and prayers are working! The mountain of cards and letters have helped lift my spirits at this time. Please feel free to pass this message along. I've texted Jack and Barbara, too.
All best,
Rusty

Yes although a little disappointed not meeting up with Rusty again this year it is probably for the best with the heat and travel involved for him , especially with Cross Plains a little remote if he had any problems.
