David was stretched and pushed and pulled by Se and Carrie all morning, until they let him kick the soccer ball around. They were trying to strengthen his ‘trunk’ and leg muscles in order to improve his balance, walking and posture. If he wouldn’t talk so much maybe they could actually get him to break a sweat. He was asking them about the good movies that are out right now, and as they were going on about the good ones, the bad ones and the ugly ones that they’ve seen, David was just ‘coasting’ along. He seems sort of innocent, but he is a sly one.

He also met with Georgette, OT, who made a new brace to straighten his left wrist more, and recreation and speech therapy. His sergeant from Travis AFB came by to help with some military matters. We went to the Fisher House for a free Mexican food lunch, and had Mexican food for dinner, provided by recreational therapy. I’ve always thought that there is no way to have too much Mexican food, so all is good.
