Hi from Maxine.
Stan has made great strides with his mind clearing and his desire to put all the pieces together of what has gone on in the last weeks. He is overwhelmed by the love and concern from all of you. He is also a little overwhelmed by the pace things are moving and what all happens to him the the course of a day with dialysis (three times a week), doctors checking him, bandages being changed, trips to xray and physio. Sometimes he has had his food sent back to the kitchen because he was off on one of the above adventures! and was short on sleep and nourishment.
It may seem a big leap from Intensive Care to the Observation Unit but he still has a lot of healing to do. We have finally reached a place where he doesn't fight sleep, but welcomes it.
Thanks again to you all for your love and concern. I still need to be faithful to my goal of protecting him from too much additional activity than is already necessary for his daily maintenance and we will soon welcome more visits, but just not yet.
Love from Stan and Maxine

Thank you Maxine for your note--We will continue to pray for Stan & you. Sharon
We appreciate your note Maxine. I know it is hard to tell people who want to show their concern and love to both of you, that the most loving thing they can do is just try to wait until the time is right. It's a hard task to be the caregiver in that situation, but you and the hospital staff know what is best for Stan and we will continue in prayer out here! Love you lots. L
Maxine & Family: Just a loving message to let you know that I check this site each and every day to update mom & dad on Stan's progress and am so happy to see the improvements as time goes on. I knew in my heart he would pull through this, he is tooooooo wonderful of a man to be held down for too long. Even though we are too far away to visit him, we visit him in our dreams and prayers every night.Take care of him and yourselves and hope to talk to you in person soon. Dad would sure like to hear from you!
All our love: GORDON,JOAN,TERESA & TONYA JACOBS.

Hello Stan & Maxine:
Just a wee note to let you know you are thought about daily..we keep prayers going as constantly as we can--- trust the Almighty will contine to give you strength & determination. Just about ready to start harvesting here--many are hard at it; we just have some oats, barley & wheat to get done-- & then Joe will be back to the rigs very soon. Took the summer off to see what it felt like--didn't like the lack of cash flow!!! Take care & God bless all of us.
