Today Jim and I attended a two-hour meeting to educate families on the care of brain-injury patients. We learned a lot from the doctor who gave the lecture and from the other families present. One man explained the difficulty and expense ($12,000) of obtaining power of attorney for his adult son who was injured so that he and his wife could care for him. Lots to think about!
Thomas has been cleared to walk around the unit unescorted. He's also been upgraded to a normal diet. Today his PT took him outside for a walk up and down Peachtree Street.
When Thomas returned to his room after one of his therapy sessions he found a giant stuffed tiger and balloons from Cub Scout Pack 577. As for stuffed animals Thomas has received three – Lion and Tiger and Bear, Oh my!
Obviously we have been blessed with many miracles during Thomas' recovery. Your prayers and support mean the world to us! Thank you for continuing to pray.

It is so wonderful to see pictures of Thomas sitting up and smiling. Gary, Taylor, and Ansley are on their way to visit him now. God and Angels have had a special purpose in mind for you and Thomas. Happy Valentine's Day to you. I can't think of a better gift than that of the recovery of your son. Seeing his picture is a beautiful sight. God Bless you all.
ReplyDeleteSo nice to hear about Thomas walking on Peachtree Street. I know all this is not easy on y'all, but he is making super progress. I was happy to see Thomas smiling, what an uplifting moment to start my day. May each day bring more progress until Thomas is once again his old self. I'll all keep up our prayer vigil for Thomas, you & Jim as well as his medical staff.
