More, better Ping Pong





Thank you, Julio, for your enthusiasm, creativity, and care. Best wishes in your new position.




Below, see more left-handed ping pong, but use of arm is much freer (see post on January 13).

Anniversary

Our saga started exactly one year ago today. I've been stunned, scared, and sad. More often, though, I've been grateful. Thank God for dh's progress and thanks to all who have stood by us and offered support in so many ways.

In the past few days, I've had friends note that dh seems warmer, more "there," and more aware of others. His physical therapist has seen immense improvement in the kind and amount of exercises dh's able to do. He's initiating more and showing more abstract thought.

Blessings!
