Wednesday Update

Jamie is continuing to do well. He had a great physical and occupational therapy session this morning and got quite a work-out. He's also mentioned having pain in his left elbow which could be a great sign for his recovery. At one point he had a therapist working on a leg and one with an arm (both female) and he said "too many girls, can't think." Good thing Tomoka gets here tomorrow! Yes, Tomoka is arriving tomorrow afternoon from Japan for the weekend. She will be great for all of our spirits!

As of right now, he is on the schedule for surgery on Saturday morning to have his piece of skull put back in. I've been taking some pictures of his head because after Saturday, his head will be back to it's normal shape, and he looks really cool right now (at least we think so!) Especially with his punk-rock haircut!

I took his nephew Henry in with me this morning and he sat on the bed with Jamie and gave him some good drooly kisses (while also trying to "help" his uncle pull his nose tube out)--luckily he didn't get it.

Thanks so much for your continued prayers and comments!

Good news about your therapy sessions---keep working hard to shorten your time in there. Just imagine the time when you get home and can pop a cold one. Won't that couch feel good!!!
