A new year - January 11, 2018

it’s been a long time. Life seems to move so quickly and so much is going on all around us. Blair no longer has to wear his brace as of December 1st. Then in January he completed physical Therapy. He still has occupational therapy three times a week.

His “companion” who was driving him to everything had a skiing accident and had her leg immobilized for a while. Finding back up transportation was difficult - but we have wonderful friends who volunteered. Thankfully she is back on her feet and her injury didn't require further (more invasive) treatment.  And we all know that accidents happen - you can't help it!  I am thankful that she is feeling better and able to help again!  We missed her!

Blair has been getting more insistent that he return to school. The doctor cleared him to return half a day initially. The school district doesn’t seem to be moving very quickly to get him in. He is frustrated with the home schooling and I’d like to see him have more structure and socialization.  I email the school every day and talk to the Brain Steps program at the IU. Next step is to call the department of education - which I’d rather not do because it would likely cause some hard feelings on behalf of the school district. But graduation is 87 days away - and blair would really like to graduate.

He has a long way to go - he still has double vision and his gait isn’t perfect - but he gets around without the wheel chair so we are grateful for every little bit of progress!!

Prayers continue to keep us going on the right direction. Thank you Jesus for all you do for us!

I wanted to post pictures of the journey but will have to get tonthat tomorrow as it’s beyond late for a woman who must be out the door at 8:00 am. So g’night!!
