Hello from Marty and LaRee,
LaRee is trying to get some work days in and Marty is busy being a patient and trying to recuperate from everything he has been through. We thought getting the feeding tube out and all the staples and stitches out one week ago today was a major step up, but neither of us anticipated what a CHORE getting fluids and soft food down would be for him. He is really trying to be a good patient and mind all the rules, but he is really still very miserable. Dr. Sharma wanted him to be off all pain meds by this week and he really still hurts. It is hard seeing him suffer like this. I am so grateful for his strong, determined personality. It is serving him well in this situation . He has an appointment with the Radiation Oncologist at the Huntsman Center on Monday, the 24th.
Thank you for all your prayers, acts of kindness and concern for him at this time. He does still needs your prayers. Love, LaRee and Marty

We take for granted swallowing food and drinking with natural ease! Hopefully you too will be able to enjoy it again Marty! We are sad to know that you are still miserable, but grateful that you are continuing to do what you need to do to get through what you need to get through!!!! Just having a little sore throat can make a person miserable and so it is hard to even imagine what you have already had to endure. Hang in there. We know you are a tough nut to crack! love, hugs and prayers continue to come your way. Love, Randy and SunDee
Hey Big Brother!
Just wanted you to know that we are all still keeping you in our daily thoughts! I know that you will overcome all of the obstacles that are ahead of you still, just as you have overcome all of the ones that you already have put behind you.
We love you!
Gordon, Michelle and the Baker brats!
Are people still contacting you about being interested in your boat? Any updates you want to mention?
Hey Marty and LaRee,
It is so good to hear the great news. It makes me sad knowing that Marty is miserable. But I also know that he can be a great patient. I hope things will improve soon. Good Luck on the 24th. Lots of love hugs and kisses from Southern Utah.
Hi Marty and LaRee, I talked to Barbara yesterday and she told me about her visit with both of you. She really enjoyed it. Barbara said that you were looking real good Marty, that was good to hear. I'm so sorry to hear that you are still in pain. You are always in our thoughts and prayers. Good luck with your doctor appointments next week.
Love
Danton and Susan

Marty and LaRee,
Well we just got home tonight from the cruise. It was really fun but would have been more fun with the two of you there. Next time for sure we will all have to go together. We wanted to call you to see how you are doing but it was way to late. Steve and Doug are heading to Minnesota in the morning but they will try calling you. Hope all went well today! We can't wait to see you!
Love Steve and Terri
