John started with his first full days at work this week, he is doing 1 full day, 1 , 1/2 day and a day off. He seems to be coping well and we are delighted with his progress. He is coping with the complex 30 year plan and is able to write reports. We are thankful to all who have prayed and for the Lord who has brought John through this. This has been a tough 4 months , yet we wouldn't be without this experience. There are still some difficulties, yet they are small in comparison to where John was after the stroke.
