Delayed but not Defeated

Well, July 24 has come and gone, so why are the VanNoords still State-side? Well, we've been delayed by a slight medical set back.

On Tuesday morning, July 7, Jack was injured while burning brush in the back yard. He spent 13 days at the burn center at Loyola Medical Center in Chicago -the first three days in the i.c.u. He had first and second degree burns covering 15% of his body namely his right arm and leg.

After a couple of arduous weeks, he is on the road to a full recovery. The doctors believe that he should have no long-term side effects including scarring.

We managed to get our airline tickets changed and we will be flying out around noon on Wednesday, August 5th.
