Good day for the family, and for Jason in particular. He had a great morning with Physical Therapy (PT) and before that his morning formation was over in a matter of less than 20 minutes. After PT he did mention to me that he was a little soar in a couple of places where Dawn was working his shoulders, but that wouldn't be the first time that has happened. We did get to go see Pacific Rim, and it was an entertaining movie, though I am glad we went to the matinee and that we didn't have to pay full price for it. I got the impression that the people who put it together wanted to put something together that was a bit like Godzilla meets War of The Worlds, and there were some interesting turns with it. Overall I'd give it a B-, though I did enjoy the characters Ron Perlman played and the crazy professors, and that's all I'll say about that.

Tomorrow is going to be another early day, and Jason is going to be heading in very early for some classes he is required to attend. The class is actually an all-day type class and they have modified it so that he can take half tomorrow and the other half next week (at least I think that's the schedule). The girls will be going to day care and that will mean that Linda and I will be able to have the morning to ourselves, after we drop everyone off. That's about it for now, though I'm sure I could write more. I need to post some of the photos from the carousel rides yesterday, but I'm tired and I don't want to accidentally goof on something. Thank you, for all your continued support and prayers - Take care and stay positive.

    So glad you and Linda can have that time together!
    Praying right now!
    Psalms 86:1-4 Bow down thine ear, O LORD, hear me: for I am poor and needy. Preserve my soul; for I am holy: O thou my God, save thy servant that trusteth in thee. Be merciful unto me, O Lord: for I cry unto thee daily. Rejoice the soul of thy servant: for unto thee, O Lord, do I lift up my soul.

I know I haven't been keeping up with the blog and posting as often as I said I would, but I guess that's what happens when the days really do start to seem more normal, and don't feel like there is much to update about. Then when there is something exciting going on, by the time I can get to the blog I'm pretty well worn out for the day and then I'm slow to get to it afterward. Well, I will continue to provide updates, as I can and we'll just have to see where it takes us. Jason's sled hockey season is over and he had a great time with it. He was not able to go to the final tournament, in Chicago, due to travel challenges. First challenge was simply getting there - there really isn't any way to get there, that doesn't simply totally wear him out, and then he needs the next day to recover. We think we may have figured out a way around this, though it actually means more travel time, rather than recovery time. We have found a van that can provide a ...

Again, I have no reasonable excuse other than to say I got side tracked. On the last post I mentioned that Jason had gotten injured, while playing in the hockey tournament. Well, as it turned out it was a more serious injury than either of us had suspected. The outcome was that he lost some soft tissue and a section of his pelvic bone was exposed (about the size of a quarter) and he is now required to have a wound-vac so that it can heal properly. This means that he has to spend most of his time in bed and can only be up in his chair for no more than 20 minutes at a time, and that followed by hours of rest time. The rest time is for the injury, and not necessarily for Jason, as he isn't tired. As you can imagine, he gets very board with this "life style" and wants to get up and go do something. We've been going in to wound-care frequently, once or twice each week, and they keep telling us, "...we'll take a look at it next week, to see what happens next....

Happy St. Patty's Day!

To day was a good day for Jason, as they removed the breathing tube from his mouth and throat, and his medications and pain meds were lowered. All this lead to him being able to begin talking to us, and have visitors, other than from family. On top of that, Bridgette came with the girls today (she went a short time ago to go pick them up), so he'll be able to see and speak with them as well. Of course tomorrow is Friday, and he is scheduled for another surgery (I'll talk more about that later) so we will need to go visit with him early in the morning, and then later tomorrow we will be able to visit with him again. He was visited by a bunch of different doctors with all of them asking him the same basic questions of, "How are you feeling? Where do you have pain? Can you tell me where you are?" etc., etc. Then came the psychiatrist, who wanted to be sure of his mental abilities and neurological issues. He began with those same questions then asked, "Do you know wh...
