More crying...

What an emotional day again. We decided to visit the nursing staff at the VA in Roseburg. The last time we went, many of the staff members who took care of Bob were not working. They were there today. Bob walked in pushing me in my wheelchair. We heard, "Look, the king pushing the queen!" Staff started gathering around us. Oh my goodness...Bob was crying. I was crying because Bob was crying. The nurses were crying. We were blubbering fools.

We saw Shannon. She was the nurse in the video to the right>>> who took Bob on as her own project. She was the one who got Bob strong enough to walk for the first time after seven months.

One new nurse was Bob's nurse when he was at Rosehaven. The last she saw him, he wasn't eating too much on his own yet. His brain was still trapped, and he wasn't aware of too much of his surroundings. She was sobbing to see Bob's recovery. She couldn't talk.

The head nurse practitioner said, "I love seeing success stories." (Remember, she was one of the staff that had no faith and felt that Bob wasn't going to recover too much more mentally than the level he was in October '09?) I responded by saying, "I had no doubt!" She said, "No, you never did give up."
