Monday Night Raw..........Foods
So This was a pretty uneventful week for Derek, that is good. Overall Derek had a pretty good week. There was no major health problems and if you ask me he actually may have a little more energy than normal.
We have been doing this for a while now, but in an effort to get a nutrition explosion into Derek, we are now regularly doing a Monday Night Raw Foods. We will eat living food, such as organic raw veggies, and make a meal out of it. We have many different kinds of colors and varieties of veggies with a good dip. It gives him a lot of fiber and many vitamins and micro-nutrients that are lost when the same veggies are cooked.
We had a great weekend, thanks to the FYB committee and everyone else who came.
No major news or updates this time around. But there also has been absolutely no reason to go into the doctor either. So considering everything, he has been doing pretty good.
That's all for now Folks

We enjoyed attending the fund raiser Saturday night, not just because it was a fun event, but especially because we got to meet Derek and his family! What a great person he is; what a wonderful family you are! We are grateful that his health concerns were stable last week. Our prayers continue for Derek, his family, and his caregivers. Thanks for the updates. They mean so much.
When Derek told me about Monday night Raw, the first thing I thought of was Wrestling until he explained about all the different raw veggies. Awesome idea, love it!! Great to hear that Derek's week was good, he did awesome dancing at the benefit as well as Kate!! ((HUGS)) to you all!!
So glad he's a bit more like himself again!
Derek was Mr. Fun on Saturday. Keep up the energy!!
Glad to see the energy back in Derek and the smiling picture of the Young family. Take care and God bless you all with more good days to come.
So glad we could come to the FYB. Scored a couple of great baskets at the silent auction. Loved watching the dance party, Derek has got some moves! Glad it's been a good week. Hmmm, raw Monday, sounds great for summer! Thanks for the updates.
Very interesting. Raw veggies are good for everyone. Glad to hear Derek that he has more energy. He was such a good little ambassador at the Forever Young Benefit. Hope he enjoyed it. Not having to go to the doctor must be a big event. Stay strong Derek. We love you.
Reminds me of when you and Nathan were little..your Dad and I would bring out veggies and dip as snacks. You both didn't know the difference until someone told you it wasn't snack food.
What a joy to meet Derek in person. We were glad to attend the get-together on Sat. night, and see you again. Thanks for the update. Love, Judy and Lyle
