4/2-4/3

Friday Kevin broke into the biggest belly laugh!
Working on balance in front of a full length mirror and
holding his breath, the therapists were trying to get him to
BREATHE, joking around, it worked!
If it were easy we wouldn't be doing it!

We had a great weekend with many of our kids and grandkids visiting. The grandkids got involved in balloon toss and beanbag passing....grandpa was having some fun ❤️🎈
We enjoyed conference so much ...also two wonderful outings. Saturday for the priesthood session and a delicious salmon dinner (including gyoza) at Rod and Terry's...And a delectable roast beef traditional dinner at Donna and John's home. They all spoiled us and we enjoyed every bit and the company so much. Sunday as we were talking about the power of priesthood blessings and how powerfully we have felt the power of united prayers, Kevin interjected with no effort...'it's the atonement '. ❤️And it surely is ....the heavenly gift of the atonement that is blessing Kevin with healing and strength and lifting him to do things he could not do on his own. Many many thank yous for your continued faith and prayers as we continue on this journey of recovery. Love, Cindy and Kevin

  3. Kevin, we spoke to Dick & Rita Swenson recently when they were in Arizona. We didn't know anything about your stroke! Rita just sent me a text giving me the name of your blog and I have been reading the posts. You have made incredible progress since the first days of your stroke and I can see that that Miyasaki "can do "attitude has helped you tremendously! I know that your strong faith and your determination to regain as much of your previous life as possible, has also give you inspiration. We hope you continue to make positive progress in your recovery. We send hugs and positive wishes your way. Janet and John Bartolomucci

  10. I'm reading " A stroke of insight" ...it describes the incredible amount of work a stroke victim has to put out to recover. You can do this with the love And support of your family. We know you'll do all you can to get U back!
