April 17th...

This Friday we will leave this Neuro Rehab Center and begin a new leg of our journey. We've seen so much progress here and feel so very grateful for the expertise and knowledge of the therapists. Today we went outside for a good 50 minutes, using a cane. He felt good about doing that, also enjoyed it; although, a major workout for him. Just a few weeks ago walking the wheelchair along the same route, I told  him he would be walking along here soon. He just raised his eyebrows and laughed. But now he's doing it!

                                              Kevin was happy to be walking outside again 👍

We are both excited to see progress with language. He does best one on one...we've had some precious conversations lately. This is quite a journey but also a spiritual journey. Praying and reading scriptures together has always been a special experience but has taken on a new tenderness now. Elder Kim and Sue Clark's visits are always a highlight. We're grateful for the faith, prayers and encouragement of all. Love, Cindy

 Friday night date with Alec, Lacey and Wes. Great chats
and delicious Thai cuisine. 

 Happy Sams Club shoppers

 Sacrament meeting is only a half hour at the hospital so we
enjoy a few conference talks on the iPad afterwards.

Kevin's favorite reading material doubles as really effective speech therapy.
