Some changes were made today. Timothy will no longer need the one-on-one attendant because he is doing so well. He was not happy about that. He said, "Who am I going to visit with when I wake up in the middle of the night?" They have changed his wheelchair to one that he can wheel himself so that he has more control and will be using his right arm more. The OT therapy went very well. He was able to use his right elbow without pain with the help of Brooke's e-stem therapy. Speech therapy is going great. I feel that he is dealing with the accident facts quite appropriately. He is beginning to think about going home and how we can make changes to his house so we can take care of him and later he can take care of himself. He wants a cell phone. He is amazed at all the cards and e-mails. He says, "I don't even know that many people." "Why do they all care about me?" All good signs.
Thanks everyone for your continuing concern and prayers. He is doing so well because of it.

I must say the reason so many people care is Timmy is such a sweetheart & a great kid. He takes his Grandma out & treats her like a Queen, helping her out anytime she needs it & he is always concerned about other people. He is a very special boy & we can hardly wait until he comes home! Go Timmy! I don't mind saying that I have 3 incredible Nephews & I'm proud of them & Love them all 3! XOXOX
ReplyDeleteWe all know that Aunt Susie loves her nephews :) But she's right, Timothy is a great guy and huge sweetheart. He is loved by so many people! It's great to hear that he's dealing with the accident details pretty well and that his therapy is progressing! I can't believe how far he has come!
