The last two days have been very encouraging. Timothy continues to make eye contact, respond more often to commands, stay awake longer, and move about in his bed more. The neurosurgeon said he was encouraged with his recent progress. Aunt Susie is still staying with Timothy, and she is very excited.
We received a surprise in the mail today. The Friends to Friends network sent Timothy a check for a nice amount of money. This network, I understand, is a volunteer effort by the employees of Union Pacific Railroad. We are grateful for their help.
I think I have mentioned before how concerned Timothy's railroad friends of been. They continue to call or visit Timothy almost daily.
Our community has been wonderful as well. Tim and I are home, and everywhere we go people ask about Timothy or tell us they are following this blog. We are very appreciative of all the prayers, care packages, cards, and supportive comments, actually I guess you could say we are overwhelmed with all the love everyone has shown our family.

Mom and I went to see Tim today. He was giving his Aunt Susie a run for her money! He was moving his legs quite a bit and seemed restless. It was very apparent that the determination is definitely there and he is going to give it all he's got. He was very alert, followed us with his eyes and reached for my hand several times. Before we left I said, "Okay Timmy D. give me what you got"..... he squeezed my hand so hard mom said it looked like it turned purple. I will look forward to hearing of his progress and please know that our prayers and thoughts are constantly with you.

For the railroaders following Tim's blog I thought I'd explain the friends to friends network. It is run by railroaders who felt a need to help out families in situations like the Dannars. They accept donations or you can have a payroll deduction taken. You can find it on the UP homepage and clicking on quicklinks. Thanks to all the employees that contribute to this fund.
ReplyDeleteGreat news again today about Tim. Keep up the great work.
