Don is impressing everyone with his strength as he improves moving from his bed to a wheelchair to go to therapy. Each day brings greater strength and of course more expectations. Barbara said he is enjoying the cards and comments and is reading them HIMSELF!
Pastor Dennis Apple made us aware of a book, "My Stroke of Insight", by Jill Bolte-Taylor. Barbara and Britney are reading it. It is written by a lady who had a stroke in her early 20's and what it is like in the mind of a stroke victim. The author lists some things that she found helpful. I am going to try to put some in the blog from time to time that would apply to those near and far.
1. Honor the healing power of sleep.
2. Stay in touch. If you have a picture to send that would remind me about you please do that. Please write a message on the back of who you are and how we know each other. ( I hadn't thought about the pictures but what a great idea!)
3. Create a healing team for me. Send the word out to everyone about how I am doing so they can send prayers and words of encouragement. WOW!! we got that one right!!!
