Day 47.... Another day of therapy. As everyone heads to class this week, Tyler continues with his classes too. He has therapy pretty much through out the day. In the morning he is working on being upright and putting weight on his legs. The he works on sitting and holding his head up. He also is working on moving his hands and feet. Especially his thumbs because the goal is as he progresses to some day have him be able use and electric wheel chair until he hopefully some day gets strong enough to walk. But right now the main goal is moving his fingers and toes, arms and legs, and and getting all of his muscles stronger so he can support his head and sit up. He also has been working on his swallowing and making noises. He made some today, which was good. So he continues to be wiped out by the end of the day. He gets a good nap in and then is awake in the evening to watch tv, listen to music, or have someone read to him. He opens his eye quite a bit sometimes you have to remind him. He tends not to want to when he is getting tired with his therapy, it is good to know that he is still a hard working, moody teenager. He gets his MRI tomorrow or Sunday, so this is good. Then early next week again they reevaluate to see if he comes home for a while or if he stays. By the way Kara tried to turn the game on for him tonight thru her computer but could not log on to the web site, so he was bummed. So call or blog and let him know how it went.!!!!!

Tyler,
Keep up the hard work! We all miss you but know you are trying your best to come back to your family and friends. The game didn't go the way the Cougs would have liked so maybe next week. A lot of orange Ty shirts around tonight...everyone is thinking about you and can't wait to see you down on on the sidelines with your Dad. The prayers continue.
Kara...all I can say is hang in there. Your world has been turned upside down, but stay positve and remember you need to stay strong for not only Tyler and yourself, but also for those wonderful three daughters you have! I really miss our visits...hopefully soon...either in Toledo or when you get back here. Take care and call if you need anything. Christy
