Today was a good day, with Jason going to Wound Care and all of us seeing some solid progress. They said they liked what they were seeing and asked me to continue doing whatever it is I'm doing. The hope is that by me going back to my previous methods of care we can again see progress, and I think it is working. Jason has taken steps to help the girls with adjusting to their new life, by signing them up with a counselor, so we think he is going in the right direction for them.

Not much else done today, other than taking care of some personal stuff and getting some paperwork taken care of. We found ourselves, Jason, Linda and I, being without the girls this evening so we decided to go take in a movie. Jason wanted to check out a movie he was hoping he could take Stacy to see, so we all went to see it first. How To Train Your Dragon 2 had a showing tonight and so we went to grab a quick bite and then to the movie. To be honest, it was kind of mild yet with enough excitement that a five year old would probably enjoy it very much, without being scared. The length of the movie is just right, and will hold her interest and she'll probably be able to sit through the entire movie, without having to go to the restroom.

Tomorrow, Jason and I will be heading up to talk with the guys about Jason's future truck. This will be our first visit with this team, and Robb, from the Nice Guys will also be there so that we can all "get on the same page," to get this done. I'll update you all tomorrow, when I have more to say about this. Thank you, for all the continued support and prayers. Take care and stay positive...

    Have heard that it was a cute movie.
    Praying!
    Psalms 5:1-3 Give ear to my words, O LORD, consider my meditation. Hearken unto the voice of my cry, my King, and my God: for unto thee will I pray. My voice shalt thou hear in the morning, O LORD; in the morning will I direct my prayer unto thee, and will look up.

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...
