YAY, WE MADE IT!! Sorry for not posting anything yesterday but we didn't get our bags until late last night which included our laptops! We were lost without connection to the world!
Oh, while we were running through the airport in Miami we ran into Dr. Ghen, he was on the same flight as us but he was in first class. He is a great guy all around and is definitely dedicated to getting Dad back to where he was. I am totally in awww of how nice ALL the staff here are. Everyone has lived up to the expectations I had.
We arrived at the clinic after a long road trip from Belize City at about 2 or 3 local time. When we arrived all the staff were waiting to greet us. I haven't seen a bigger smile on Dad's face until we arrived at the clinic. (don't tell him but it brought a tear to my eye!)
Dr. Ghen made the rounds last night and informed us Dad may be staying longer than anticipated. Not a problem since Cindy and Joe will be able to stay with him. Unfortunately I won't be able to stay but I know he will be ok in the hands he is in now.
They haven't decided if they will supress his immune system but will know once his blood work comes back, which will be today. His extended stay will also depend on his blood work so we will keep you updated when we hear anything new.
They weren't kidding when they said the connection here is spotty! Some emails are coming in however none are going out at the moment.
Dad has a roommate, Lynn, he is here for a booster. He was the guy Dad spoke to prior to coming to Eden and I think has a testimonial on Eden's website. Very nice guy and also dedicated to getting Dad's head in the right place. He seems to be beating the disease and will be definitely be a mental booster for Dad.
More later, Joe and I are going to get some local fare!
Love ya'll,
Tami, Joe, Cindy and of course Dad!
