Thursday and Friday, Jan. 31st and Feb. 1st, 2008

David continues to improve, and he graduated from a 'large four legged cane' to a 'small four legged' version. Today he traded in his one day old 'SFLC' for a 'one legged' model. It is not as sporty as David was hoping for, (it has the arm brace attached to the top end), but it is faster than the 'LFLC'. Most of the time he wouldn't really need the cane at all, but he does occasionally lose his balance slightly, and then it is a life saver.

David's therapies continue to 'push' and 'strengthen' him. His good attitude is nothing short of amazing. He buttoned his jeans and put his socks on 'one handed' for the first time today. We finally found time to take him out for the 'Krispy Kreme doughnuts' that he has been craving.

A couple of common symptoms of TBI are struggling to remember certain words while talking, and being indecisive when presented with choices. David has an amazing vocabulary, and he talks smoothly, and remains his opinionated 'old' self, for which we are really thankful.

We appreciate your continued prayers.

Steve
