Welcome note

When my husband and I set out to find and take pictures of wheelchair accessible waterfalls in every U.S. state, we were excited about the challenge. We gave ourselves no time limit to accomplish our feat; however, we had one mutually agreed upon rule that dictated how long we would stay in any given area. That rule was to never shiver again. Needless to say, adhering to this rule presented a new challenge. The new challenge was to find a waterfall that was actually flowing. Visiting mid-west and eastern states during months that prevented us from shivering are the same months that are hot enough to dry up streams; hence, little or no water flow for waterfalls. The natural scenery and picturesque landscapes warrant a second visit in the early spring right after the snow melts.

Day 28?

I've lost all track of what day and month it is. I believe my birthday is coming soon, but it doesn't really matter to me at this point. I'll celebrate with my t at my next birthday.

Today was a very quite day. The physical therapist came in to show me how he sits on the edge of the bed. He did. He held himself in place. He had a grin on his face; however, when she put him back down on the bed, his look at her could have shot daggers. She tuckered him out. He has been sleeping the entire day. So...all is quiet on the western front.

Woo-Hoo, the doctors are downsizing his trach as I type so speech therapy can work with him more.

Please continue to pray. I'm confident, without all of your prayers, Bob wouldn't be at this point.
