Tim and I are home for a day. Aunt Susie, Zach and Alethia (Zach's girlfriend) are with Timothy. Alethia called around 1:00 p.m. to say that Timothy had his eyes open and when she told him she was there, he seemed to know. She also asked him to squeeze her hand, and he did. Then she asked for a "thumbs up." First he tried to hold up two fingers but then changed it to his thumb.
As in the past several days, not too much has developed since then. Zach says Timothy is pretty restless--not sure how much he is aware of his surroundings yet.
This is better than yesterday. We plan to be more aggresive with our presence--talk, laugh, play music, talk of fun times in the past--not tip toe around as much.
Thanks Stacie for your suggestions. We are grateful for all comments.

My husband and I are keeping up with Tim through this site. Although I did not know him, he worked with Mike. We have prayed for his recovery and still do. Today sounds like a good day. May his progress continue with God speed. Your whole family is in our thoughts and prayers.

Another note of gratitude to Tim. We left the shop at Marshalltown with the RM2003 that Tim was working on. We are heading for Ofallon's, NE. Tim was instrumental in getting this done on time so we could hit our deadline. He completely rebuilt the throats of the uphill and downhill arms on the undercutter. He had some ideas we implimented that made these more durable than the originals from the manufacturer.
ReplyDeleteWe are looking forward to the day Tim will again take his place with the undercutter group as he has been an inspiration to all of us.
My prayers are with Tim and family.
