Hello to all of Steve's Army, Happy New Year.
We have been very busy these last 6 months and apologize for not updating this blog.

The Saddest thing that transpired is Mary Perkins passing on the day after Thanksgiving. Grams will be missed but we will remember her as the best Grandmother Steve could have ever had. Mary helped us tremendously when Steve was initially hurt and throughout his recovery. During the first year of recovery, She showed up at the hospital promptly at 8AM driving from Dearborn Heights to Ann Arbor by herself, then helping us get Steve through therapy. She always took the lead with the Golf Outing and did more than her share during Steve's recovery.
Beth tells a story about how Grams drove around several police cars with lights flashing and many cones blocking the entrance from Telegraph to I75 south, on their road trip to Georgia. When asked by a trooper why she did that, she responded, "you only blocked two of the three lanes. I thought I could use the other one"! This is the person we will remember. Celebrate Her life don't mourn her death. I'm sure that is the way Mary would want it!

Steve is currently working through Anti-Convulsant meds that are necesary due to him having 3 more seizures during the last 6 months of the year. We have also had to replace three of his doctors. Two due to retirements and one we just couldn't work with. We feel we have a good team now and are looking forward to great things in 2017.

We would like to wish all of you a Safe and Happy New Year and look forward to seeing you all again in June. Take care of yourselves and each other.
Linda Rob Beth and Steve.
