Tomorrow marks six months since Steve's accident. He's come a long way, for sure. And we all maintain massive hope for great possibilities for his next six months!
Steve has an optometrist appointment on Thursday--which is fantastic. We hope that he'll get a new prescription which will greatly improve his vision. With that, he'll be better able to use the computer with assistive technology. And since one of Steve's biggest battles is boredom, you can imagine how extraordinary getting online will be for him. I'll keep you posted on how that goes. He's still waiting on the necessary equipment.
On Saturday Steve went to the "shop" for the first time since he's been home. For those of you who don't know, the "shop" is Jeremy and Jason's workshop, where Steve and his friends worked on their jeeps. From what I can tell, it's a world of boy toys and Steve spent many, many hours there. Anyway, the industrious boys used some old street signs as wheelchair ramps, and they were scrambling till the last minute getting the place together before Steve's arrival. Steve went to check out the jeep that they are building for Jeremy Edwards, and the buggy that's they are building to sell. And he also got a Lee's Magic Tunnel Car Wash treatment as the guys spiffed up Steven's wheelchair tires.
Unfortunately, Steve's spasms continue to bring him immense discomfort and unease. We hope that they will calm down, perhaps once he has more regular physical therapy. Please pray for him to have more peace and less spasticity within his body.
Steve had some other wonderful visitors this weekend. Paula and her friend Debby came over with Kylie on Saturday night. And today his friends John and Abby came by with their little guy. As always, visits are their own kind of special medicine.
Thank you for continuing to come here to check in on Steve. We deeply appreciate your love and support.
