Prayers, Thanks and its "good to be home"!!

Rick has spent the last couple of days enjoying his own bed and his family.  He has a busy week ahead traveling to Duke and DC to meet with doctors.
We wanted to send you the following information regarding his hebrew name for the purposes of mishabarachs and blessings for recovery.  Based on a reading from his parents Ketuba, Rick's name is Chaim Ben Devorah (seems Rick was named for Dede's father whose name was Chaim as well).
Tami and Rick are VERY appreciative of so much support and offers to help from such a large group of people.  They are being well taken care of and are extremely well fed.  They are happy to report that at this time, they feel somewhat under control.  They do have a long road in front of them and know that they may continue to enlist the support and help of friends and family.  At this time, for those who are looking to do something, Tami and Rick would be grateful for a donation to the following:

Dr Gutin's Clinical Research Fund
c/o Dr Philip Gutin
Memorial Sloane Kettering Hospital
1275 York Avenue
NYC 10065

They are hopeful that some efforts this way will not only help them, but others in the long run.
Again, thanks to everyone for support, help and comments on the blog!

Hey Rick & Tami-
Robin Meister (Simborg) in Chicago here...spoke to Steve & Carol yesterday and they told me the news. I am wishing you a very speedy recovery, Rick, and just know you've got lots of positive Chicago energy coming your way.
Take care and I'm thinking of you-
