Sorry this is Late! We are Home!

Well, I guess I screwed up again. The past few days, I have had 'several' of you call or e-mail and say, "When are you going to update us on the finished product from your Mexico trip???"

I must say that we were very pleased and relieved to get home that I just totally forgot to do that. That, plus, I have been doing much of Cheryl's jobs around the house as well. And, that's not easy, since I have never really 'done' Cheryl's jobs around the house, so she had to 'instruct' me from the bed!! It is a whole new lesson in communication skills.

OK. Bottom line from the Stem Cell Therapy. Cheryl is 'still' out of pain. She does have a 'little' discomfort every once in a while, but, overall, she is FREE of Pain! Are we glad we did it. You bet!! And, we are proud to recommend this treatment to anyone who has a medical problem which maybe hasn't worked with typical medical procedures. Check out Dr Estrada's web site, www.stemcellmexico.com and Bill McClain, Dr Estrada's managing partner, will send you a medical questionnaire. From there, they will determine if they have what you need. We have heard of people being helped with Parkinson's, Advanced Degenerative Arthritis (Cheryl's condition), cancer, liver problems, etc. Believe me, we both feel it is well worth it.

In the week that we have been home, Cheryl has been (for the most part) a good girl and has stayed off of her feet, as recommended by the doctor. He told her that she will feel so good, that she will 'want' to get up and do things, but she has to do this in moderation. This next week, she will start exercising on the stairs. Up until now, she has done NO stairs, except the first plane flight from Monterrey to Houston. She has been able to get up and 'walk about' for 15 - 30 minutes twice each day and has only exceeded that limit once or twice. We have been using the walkie-talkies so she is never far from my assistance.

She needs to take it easy for about 30 days, then increase her walking slowly to work up to here normal activity. What an extraordinary experience this has been. Right now, I can't think of anything else that I can tell you other than Stem Cell Therapy works!!! Now, if we can just get the United States Congress to allow this in the United States, we can do away with a LOT of needless surgeries!!

Love to you all. Thanks for thinking of Cheryl and her interest. We appreciate it. Tom
