What a week

its been a tough one. but we are surviving and i believe its because of your prayers.
Chuck has had a rough couple of days. I have been letting him do some things on his own. This morning we walked out to the living room and i asked him where his where is your walker? he walked out without his walker :). so while the going was good we went to go to his bank. he walked from the car to the inside and back out again on his own :) :) Then we had to go to the store. he did real good for a while, but then his brain started not communicating with his legs :( but thats ok. This is the first day since hes been released that he actually could walk even 10 feet with out the walker. its like i told him, one step at a time.

walking without a walker is great. That shows some real progress. Say hi to Chuck. Thanks Dick.

Whatever you're doing, keep doing it. Just remember, it's more than what he would be doing than if he were by himself. Thank you.
Jim
P.S. I've forwarded you two pieces of mail.

Dick I am so glad you are with him, and yes I agree, it does help to have someone with him, as he does better. keep up the good work. Proud of you, and know that he can get better, just needs the support and someone being there for him.

I love him, and know that he can get better, let him know this. Also getting him out is good for him, and sharing the joy of the area and beauty around him.
