Coming Home
What I am about to tell you will surely shock and
amaze you. David is expected to come home tomorrow,
Monday, December 27, 2004, one week and a day after
his liver transplant. His doctors say his recovery
has been remarkable and they credit his desire to come
home to his loving family as what encouraged him to do
so well.
David has been in the hospital for 20 days and is so
anxious to be home and see Alex and Tasha. You can't
imagine how much he misses them.
David will need plenty of time to rest at home, but he
is so anxious to see the many friends who have
inspired him and kept him strong throughout all of
this.
Lots of love,
Nancy

This is truly amazing. Who would have thought that David's news would top the Red Sox winning the World Series?
What a way to ring in the new year.
Wishing you all the best.

David,
Thanks for giving us an example of how wonderful this planet can be when it works the way God intended.
With love and best wishes,

Welcome Home David! We are so happy to have you back in Long Hill Township with your family where you belong. You said you were going to write a book about all this when it was over. Well... I can't wait to read it, but this was a heck of a way to get a good story! You writers, you will go to all lengths won't you!!
We will continue to keep you in our prayers for a continued speedy recovery. I will also continue to pray for the person (and his/her family) whose liver now gives you life. I have been keeping Ian (Alex's fellow Tiger Cub) posted on your progress and he has said "I'm happy and sad Mommy. Happy Mr. Bird is going to be okay and sad that the other person died." I explained to him that although it is sad that someone died, we are very happy that that person had the intelligence and compassion to be an organ donor. I don't think that anyone who knows your family will ever be neutral on the subject of organ donation again. If you can get those bumper stickers you mentioned earlier, I am sure you would have no problem finding people willing to use them. Looking forward to seeing you at some Cub Scout meetings in the future when you are up to it. Lynn B. P.S. I think that incredible wife of yours deserves a spa weekend or something else similarly indulgent!
I second Lynn's motion about an indulgent spa treatment for Nancy once all the dust settles and David is up and running - so to speak. ACL
