Therapy & update

Hi, I just thought I would give an update. I'm doing great, I feel good and like to get out as much as I can. I have therapy on tue.,thur,& fri. for two hrs. each. I'm walking without a cane on stable ground which feels good, I get tired real easy, but that is getting better. If you would like to visit you might want to call because I might be gone out somewhere. I would like to thank all of you that prayed for Bea & me in this time. . Some of you asked about our grand daughter, She is doing well. She has turned 16 years old and got her drivers license. Thank you for your prayers for her too. We feel very blessed to have such a caring group of family and friends. Bill

For those of you who know our daughter Cheryl--We'd appreciate your prayers for her and her family. Ben (son who has Down Syndrome) has returned to the Allegan County Learning Center, as of today. This was a difficult decision for Cheryl and Randy as it means Ben will spend a long time on the bus each day. Things were not going well for him in the Wayland Middle School program, so we hope this will be a good fit and make for a happier Boy. Thank You much!

Dad is in the News

Dad will be in the Penasee Globe the week of November 12. Look for him!

Full text says: Look At Me Now . . . Bill Berends is now home after receiving therapy. This is what he had to say ... "When I came to the Laurels of Sandy Creek it was after being in the hospital for 12 weeks. I came in flat on my back; and now just 2 1/2 weeks later, I'm walking with just the aid of a cane. The therapists know their stuff and how to motivate you. While here, I didn't find anyone I didn't like!"
