Journal entry by Michele Ballstadt —
Greetings!
I apologize for the delay in getting an update out on Jason. Life at home is chaotic and crazy!
Jason is now attending Cardiac Rehab three times a week down in Faribault. He goes on work out machines and is building back up some endurance and strength. He's got some new friends - they are a bit older - around 70 to 80s! 😂 He is the youngest one there - by about 20 years! He is still watching what he eats and is down about 35 pounds now. He has 2 more weeks and then his physical restrictions lighten up - he will actually be able to help more around the house!
Hannah started working at the corn stand again this year. Her work schedule is all over the place and she still needs rides to and from. Thankfully, Jason finally got clearance yesterday to drive his truck. I am so happy! It will be such a huge help for me now that he can become her taxi instead of me or her begrudgingly brother! I think Nate is pretty excited he can drive as well - that way he doesn't have to be up by 730am to get Jason to Cardiac Rehab.
We have had some great time with the Grands lately! I swear, these sweet girls can really help heal your heart!
