No news is good news

Things are going great for dad. He is really starting to walk a lot more. He is using a cane to help him balance better. I'm not sure how many more weeks he has at rehab but I know he will be happy when those are done. All of this nice weather, he has enjoyed cutting the grass with the riding lawn mower and bbq'ing.

Grandma is about the same. She moves pretty slow and just seems out of it. It just seems that the accident sped this whole "Getting old" process up for her. She still has an amazing smile and enjoyed spending time with Sandy (Aunt Nancy's Daughter). Her and her family were all in town last week because Lawrence is getting deployed soon. Grandma enjoyed seeing her grand kids.

Hope you are loving the Spring weather!

Beautiful Weather

This has been the warmest winter I can remember. It is March and it is suppose to get up to 75 this week. Dad is enjoying walking around outside with his leg. He told the Dr. he wanted to practice on a treadmill and they told him no. So we took a pretend picture of him walking on our treadmill to show them at rehab Monday.

After this, we all went outside to enjoy the weather. I got a good pic of mom and dad.

Enjoy the weekend!

Rehab!

Dad has been going to rehab this week. So far, no blisters! He got mad the first day because it was a lot of sitting around. So on Wednesday, he told them to get him up and walking! They said the doctors told them to take it easy so he wouldn't blister but you all know my father! He is determined to walk and drive again. I can't believe we are almost at a year since this crazy journey he has gone through. But man, he has come a LONG way! We know if he were younger, his recovery would have been faster. But we are all so happy that he has come this far. The other day he even tried to walk up and down the steps with Fred. Mom and I stood in front and behind him but he did a great job! Keep praying the blister stage is done!
