Joe was admitted to Emory Center for Rehabilitation Medicine yesterday. This is a whole new experience and not an easy one by any measure. The therapists will start with aggressive therapy beginning Monday. Joe is the most tired & weak I have seen him so far. It really hurts to see him this way.

We have to concentrate on Joe getting some or all his strength back and at least some of his right side strength & usage back. The other goal is to eliminate the staph infection. This has to happen before any other treatment to shrink the tumor can begin.
