yep... still moving

Well today was therapy again, and as you can see in the video.. Rick is still moving his leg! It's his left leg again, but I think he's moving it farther than he even did last time! I think I have watched this video like a hundred times already because it is so fun to see it move! He still can't feel it, he said it just feels like he's trying real hard. Whenever he watches the video he gets a slight smirk come across his face.. it is so cute! Today in therapy he also wheeled himself from the rehab gym to the vending machines.. which is down a real real long hall and back! He did awesome! He is also fully recovered from his sickness.. he is getting all his strength back and doing great! It will be so fun to keep posting all the videos of Rick's improvements and progress!

My brother Shay graduated from boot camp today.. he was in the top ten of like 170 people! I am so proud of him! Keep up the good work Shay! We can't wait to see ya... you're always in our prayers!

My parents came down and saw us yesterday and today.. we had a real good time.. it was really fun to see them! Through this trial we have come to see what the important things are in life... and family sure is!! We have the best family anyone could ask for. Everyone in my family and Rick's have touched our lives somehow and we are so blessed to have them. Through this time it is hard, but if we didn't have the family we do, it would be almost impossible. We'd like to thank all of our family and let you know how much you mean to us!! You guys are super de duper! No but really we love you all!!

Keep it up! I think I check your blog like 20 times a day for any and all updates you give-even if it's just to say more of the same. Have a great weekend!

That video is so great!! You have been in our prayers, as well as many others I am sure, and I am glad to see that Rick is getting the blessings of those prayers! What an inspiration you two are!
