April 07 to July 07

Changes.......

A giant THANK YOU goes out to Sergio's next door neighbor, Mike Trotter (and his wife Lisa). Mike drives Sergio from their houses in Corona to Brea and/or Tustin nearly every Tuesday for Sergio's acupuncture treatments or his appointments with Diane, his nutritionist. Some days, this is an all morning excursion but Mike is there to help his buddy in any way he can. This has been a great help to Kelly too who has to be at work and has relied on Mike's help with Sergio.  Mike also has helped Sergio with computer issues and checks on Sergio daily to offer his help and companionship. Mike has an amazing outlook on life and is a true friend to Sergio (and the rest of the De Luca families).

A big thank you to Greg and Bonnie Yoder, Sergio's neighbors, for installing (and paying for) a drip system for Sergio's  backyard (among other things!). If anyone knows Sergio at all, they know that he has taken great pride in the designing and the upkeep of his yards and gardens. The Yoder's knew that Sergio wishes he could tend to his garden himself and wanted to help him out by installing the drip system along with planting lots of flowers around the house.  This has allowed Sergio to spend lots of time in his backyard- enjoying the garden the way he always intended it to look like.

 

Greg and Bonnie Yoder are the owners of "Crumbles"- a cookie company. Check out their website but I warn you- Your mouth will water, you'll be pouring yourself a big glass of milk and placing your order before you know what hit you!!!

Sergio still sees Mr. Paek weekly for his acupuncture treatments. In February of 07, Sergio, Kelly and Sonia were honored to be invited to Mr. Peak's wedding to his new bride Yang Hee Kim. From the moment Sergio arrived, Mr. Paek was helping him to a good spot and making sure he received the special meal prepared just for Sergio. Most of the ceremony was in Korean but we could still follow along just fine. It was a beautiful wedding and meeting with the Paek family and the Kim family was so wonderful. Congratulations to the new couple and thank you for letting us be a part of your wedding memories.

Keep a look out for a future website for Mr. Jun Paek and check out what he has to offer you in the way of good health.

Sergio is a BIG LA Laker fan- we all know that. He was given 4 tickets to the April 07 Laker/Clippers game by good friends John and Eileen Sanguedolce (also big Laker fans). Sergio decided to make it a real "guys night out" and invite buddies Robert Styles, Miguel Cortez and Chuck Catero to join him. With a little help from his pals, he managed to get in and out of his seat without much ado. The seats were just 16 rows from the court behind the basket and the guys had a great time- it was great fun just having a little "Guy Time".  Again, Molto Grazie to John and Eileen for their generous gift of the tickets and for caring so much for Sergio.

John and Eileen are owners of

Changes to the house are being made. Ramps that allow Sergio to use his electric wheelchair and get in and out of the house by himself are being installed by brother in law Mike and good neighbor Mike Trotter.

Sergio continues to be there at the kids soccer/volleyball/etc games and being a personal sideline coach to Alyssa and Frankie whenever he can. Kelly says that it's going to be a good day if Sergio gets to see his kids play sports of any kind.
