A Good Evening

Tonight I thought mom and dad seemed really good. Mom decided not to go back for afternoon therapy because she wanted to rest - but actually I think she felt better because of it. We took Chik-fila for dinner and they both ate well and seemed in good spirits. I think mom was especially happy because some of her sisters came to visit her today & they cheered her up. Dad was really proud of his day in therapy - he said "I think its a step in the right direction" - he kind of broke down crying - and he told me his therapist had suggested he try out the stationary bicycle that is low to the ground - his therapist warned him that it may not work because he would have to be able make the left leg participate to be successful - well what do you know - DAD did it! He was so happy with himself. . . he cried. He said, "I haven't moved that leg like that in a year!" Then he laughed because he said - mom was down there having therapy and she didn't even see his great moment!! I encouraged him and reminded him that today we began "Miracle May". . . the month where God was going to move in a big way thru his body!!! Here we go!

Praise God from whom all blessings flow. . .
