We were happy to be discharged from the hospital April 22 and on to
another journey on the road to Kevins recovery. We feel blessed to be
accepted into the 'Rehab Without Walls ' program here in Utah. This is
an intense neur-rehab program not available at all in Idaho. Our
Physical therapist, Occupational therapist and Speech therapist all come
into the home throughout the week with aggressive and varied treatment.
Each is excellent and provides special skills and expertise in
neuro-rehabilitation. I do not think Kevin's recovery could be in better
hands. We continue to feel most grateful and humble to be recipients of
so many united in prayer. We surely feel those prayers. Kevin is working
so very hard and making gains daily. Often a therapist asks him if he
needs a break. A 'No!' with a smile is almost always the answer. They
comment that just doesn't happen with other clients. The therapists also
provide us with a variety of many exercises and activities during off
therapy time. Recovery is a full time job. There have been tender
mercies all around us. Tender mercies at the hands of family, friends,
those in the ward we attend here who have so warmly welcomed us,
strangers in stores/ restaurants/games and programs we get to attend to
watch grandchildren. Dear friends and family are taking care of the
upkeep on our home and yard. We pray for special blessings on these
angels daily! We know that through much united faith and prayer,
priesthood blessings, lots of hard work and determination, the Lord will
bless us with a remarkable recovery.
