A week later....

Sorry - clean out of witty headings....

I thought it was time to update you all again.

The changes have been gradual rather than dramatic. 10 minutes out of bed or sitting up is now the maximum Bruce can handle. He is finding the simple every day things a challenge as every thing takes so long and he gets puffed out. We are now having to limit the number of visitors daily and also the time spent with him to give him a less sleepy day. Thank you to those who have come some distance for a few short minutes - it has meant a lot to him.

Bruce has been 'blown away' with your words and sentiments recorded by Zoe in a beautifully bound book. He has read them all more than once and can't quite believe he has them. I would like to thank you too as it is a wonderful record about a wonderful man that the grandchildren can get to know as they grow via your words, photos and his music.

Thank you too for the love our family has been extended over this time. It is really appreciated!

Xx Jeanette

Bruce & Jeanette,
We are devastated to read how ill Bruce is, and feel so sorry that we are so far away. We are praying that you would know God's hand through this testing time. Bruce - we love you dearly and still fondly remember many wonderful worship moments with you. We're thinking of you lots and wish you huge amounts of love.
All the way from the sunny UK
Paul, Laura, Gracie, Phoebe & Hannah xxx

HI you two wonderful people. Please still keep in touch, my computer died and running in a new one is a challenge with no files or history to fall back on. I would like a few minutes visit too if that is possible. Suresh and Hama are asking as well. Cheers, Greg
