****WCGreen Update --Sunday November 23, 2014****

From his wife:

A Christopher Green update:

I have wanted to make this post for a couple weeks, but Chris' computer with the new keyboard had a non-working space bar.

Chris wound up receiving 51 physical birthday cards and I displayed them all.I also decided he should have a birthday month, so we are keeping all of the decor up until the day after Thanksgiving. Then, it's decorate for Christmas, I will post more pictures when it is done. For now, here are more pictures of Chris' birthday. I started at the window and went clockwise.

Window view - check out the balloon bouquets Amy brought! — at Chris' room.


Some Get Well cards and postcards with his guitar. —


Some e- birthday cards


More e-cards — at chris' room.

I think I may have missed a couple of these, glad I saw this one! His color looks pretty good and how appropriate for him and DU to include the "I voted" sticker!

And when they redecorate for Christmas don't let those great SpidySpecs get lost. Keep on picking.

Thanks Peggy! I'm about 120 miles from Cleveland and with little money for gas, can't go visit.

Now we need to start sending Christmas cards! What a great pic of Chris and the room looks downright home-a-fied. There is nothing I hate more about hospitals than those damn naked white walls.
Thanks, again, CP.
