Wednesday evening, May 7 - approx 7:45 PM

Hello! Today was a pretty good day for Dwight. He went on an outing with Speech and it was to a Japanese Steakhouse and to quote him, "I had a blast" ... he also THOROUGHLY enjoyed the food. It beat cafeteria food he said!

They removed the Craig Bed and put in a normal hospital bed. They also removed the lock belt!!! These are both big steps as it indicates great improvement on his part. He still has what they call a 'gate' belt on when transporting in the wheel chair ... this is a precaution ... The fact that he is in a normal bed indicates that his 'impulsiveness' is passing and he is waiting for instructions.

They also are prepping him for 'shared BA' ... that is where one BA will care for him and another patient in another room. This too indicates that he is improving. Yet it causes me to be a tiney bit nervous ....

I dialed the number but then I gave him the cell phone and 'he' conversed with Denise's office ... asking for her , telling them he would wait, etc. It was cool ... next time I'll have to let him do the dialing as well!!

He also worked very hard at all classes today .. even after the outing. An outing is VERY EXHAUSTING for him yet he pushed forward and endured to the end!! God is good ... ALL the time!!!
May God find us faithful!!! joan for us 4 1 Cor 2:5 " so that 'our' faith should not rest on the wisdom of men BUT on the POWER OF GOD" !!!!
