This morning I awoke to sunshine, what a blessing. I told myself that this was going to be a good day. And, a good day it has been. Dave walked 150 ft.! With help from the physical therapist and me pushing a wheelchair behind Dave (in case he needed to sit down), Dave got farther today than any day since arriving. Hooray! Each step he takes is a step closer to being home with friends and family. He is now very tired and sound asleep.
Richard, Robin, and Brian should be arriving here later this afternoon, and I'm sure they will add another boost to Dave's recovery.
They have started Dave on TPN nutrition and that will continue until Dave can actually do better on his oral intake. Let's keep praying for that.
Thanks, everyone for the calls, cards, prayers and well-wishes. It is the food that fuels our ability to stay strong.
