"ESPN"

Mr. Steve is able to rest now. I think he will have Saturday and Sunday off of therapy. They may stick a little in but not the vigorous days like he has been having. He has been working like you and I are working. He is up and at'tem at 7:30am and he did not get out of his chair until 6:00pm. They usually put him in bed for a rest mid morning. By 4:00pm today he was saying, "I'm done." and would move his right hand out with emphasis.

Ken has him for two sessions. He was impressed that he was able to hold his head up better. Last night while I was there, I turned ESPN on and held his head upright and back to the head rest. This forced him to keep it upright. Well it worked. Ya know ESPN is good for somethin'.

He still has trouble with his left shoulder. It is very painful. They try to isolate the shoulder and move the arm. They are able to do this without too much pain. He will say, "Yeah buddy"
when it hurts too bad.

Steve had a better night last night. Of course Tracy went in and scolded him and told him to stop moving around and go sleep. He did. I felt better about leaving last night. I read Psalm 139 then prayed with him. One verse in particular was very apprepo - verse 15 that talks about being formed in my mother's womb. You see - this AVM was also place in Steve while he was being formed in his mother's womb. It's another "God thing" and I love it!

I thank the Lord for getting me through this week. I'm glad I got broken into the work routine gradually. Come September 2, I'll be working much more and I am praying about how God will have me work, visit Steve and do all the other house things.

Have a great weekend - enjoy your family.

Mr. Steve and company
