This is a letter from his wife:
Dear Friends and Family,
You haven’t heard much from us lately but that’s a good thing. We spent the summer together doing a lot of healing and just being a family. And it felt great. I took a break from communicating to the world this summer and it was nice to step back.
Bob has continued his therapy from our house with a web cam. He also went back to NY for a few weeks and spent time at the ABC offices– he’s planning to be back at work more regularly in the fall.
It has been amazing to have him home for such a big chunk of time. We’ve realized how little he has really been at our summer home over the years. If we try to look for little gifts out of a horrible situation, one of them is the amount of time we’ve been able to spend all together after so many years of him being on the road. It makes me sad that summer is over.
I think if you haven’t seen Bob, you would be amazed. His hair has grown in; he has been playing some killer tennis, driving the boat for the kids to tube, doing some Pilates with my sister and playing scrabble like a fiend. He looks and sounds so much more like himself each week.
The other big milestone of the summer…Bob celebrated his 45th birthday. He made it!!!!!
We remain blessed as a family. Lots of love.
Lee and Bob

This is such great news and I can not wait to see him when he reports the news again!
