It's hard to believe it's October already!
Today Blair was eating pizza with his sister Samantha, and brother Alex, when I arrived for our visit. He was sitting in his chair talking away... He still has to swallow a few times to get the food to actually go all the way down - but he is enjoying his food! He went through the menu for tomorrow and picked out what he wanted to eat while we were there. I was surprised at the number of options! He can enjoy it now... he won't have a restaurant of choices later... :)
He told us today that he wants to go to the 'Homecoming dance' on October 21, 2017. I am not sure how possible that is - but at this point - nothing is impossible in my world! This entire experience has changed that! So, he is going to talk with his doctor about it and see what needs to happen in order to make that possible. He may need to take a wheelchair with him - or promise to wear a brace - or whatever - but he really wants to go. So, we'll see what needs to happen - and then let Blair work on that happening!
I am hoping to connect with his doctor early this week to find out what he needs medically when he comes home. I will want to get things in place - or at least contact agencies that provide services or equipment - so that there is no delay in his getting what he needs. I am open to suggestions if anyone has had good experiences with any agencies!
Thanks everyone! Blair appreciates everyone's prayers!

Hard times ... Blair is a trooper ... I’m exhausted and emotionally wiped out. I’m very thankful he is so up-beat and tries to make the best...
