After the doctor appointment, Luke had a check up CT scan done on the stent that patched the tear in his aorta. This was the first of many periodic scans that he will have to make sure the stent is holding steady.
Luke had a visit from several Border Patrol agents that are a part of the Patrol's peer support group on Thursday. They presented him with mugs and coffee cups with Border Patrol logos on them, but the primary reason for the visit was to present a gift from the chief of the San Diego Sector of the Border Patrol, Chief Fisher. It was a 2008 Pittsburgh Steeler football which was signed by all the players on the team. Here is Luke admiring the gift.

Friday evening Luke joined with several other Border Patrol agents for a farewell party for a fellow agent that is transferring to another station in Texas. Luke thoroughly enjoyed the time together with his co-workers.

Bill,
Words cannot express the thanks and love for your family. I am honored for the privilege of being on this journey with you guys. And though this blog my slow or stop, our journey doesn't. God is good, He is faithful and true. And He is in control!! As wonderful as it is to serve Him here and now, it will be so much more wonderful to spend all of eternity worshipping Him in His presence. Safe travels to you, brother!
Oh, and just a warning, we have all improved at volleyball, so watch it, you will not be the only bull on the court :-)
WOW saaweeet football!!! We are excited that things are still improving.God bless, can't wait to see you.
It is good to see you moving to a new time in his life with such an awesome attitude. I will continue to pray for you....
Great football! That was mighty big of the San Diego chief to give you a Steeler ball given the big game on Sunday!
We will be thrilled to welcome your dad back to work for several reasons. His coming home shows how far you've come (Thank you, Lord!) and because we miss his happy, positive presence in our workplace.
Take care and remember God has a purpose for you!
