David walked a lot in a new fangled walker. This is the apparatus that he has used with the treadmill, but this time they took it on the open road, where he supplied all of the power. We went out to lunch, yes David got to leave the hospital in a car for the very first time, with Richard, the recreational therapist, to a good Mexican restaurant. David had to order, figure out the tax and tip, and pay by himself, so it was a re-learning experience as well as fun. Georgette worked with his left hand, and we are seeing much improvement. And he smiled all day long.

Wow, David, this is almost as good as being there with you in PT! I couldn't get to sleep tonight and remembered that I would have trouble because of the 3 energy drinks I had today while Doug and his daughter and 5 grandchildren...and great one as well were here for lunch. We will pick up the Huddleston car on Sat. and drive to Santa Maria so at least we will be closer to you! I love seeing your smile again! The 'old' David is back! When I asked our Sr minister to pray for my trip to Santa Maria before telling them how great you were doing, they said, What are you worried about! If God has taken care of David He can surely take care of you! Guess it is like going on a trip and it is hard to sleep before leaving! I'll give Chester a big hug for you while Sean and I take care of him this weekend! Love, you, Grandma Haldin
