Thank you to everyone for your outpouring of love and support during this tragedy here in Blacksburg. It really has made such a difference, knowing so many people are thinking about us and praying for us.
We’ve received so many beautiful cards—including about a hundred handmade cards from elementary school students! And all of the flowers, gifts, meals, help—and offers of help—have all been such a blessing! (I haven’t been able to send out thank you’s yet, or even begin to reply to all of the wonderful emails, but please know that we’re so appreciative of everything!!)
Gil is recovering very well. Still sore, but his wounds are healing well. We’re taking things one day at a time, and working through the process.
