Hey everyone. Just got back from a great visit with BTD. Scott and I spent the night with Dave last night just to make sure he does not go on walk about at night. They set him up with this cool tent like apparatus that keeps him in the bed. He thought the "camping" set up was cool and was even scheming on how to trailer up the "tent bed" to the van to get it home. Crackup!
I feel very fortunate to have experienced Dave's first cup of coffee with him this morning. Dave and I spent about an hour checking out rolling stone magazine and sipping coffee....Dave was actually chugging it. Dave appreciates a good addiction to coffee so this was a special moment.
He had a great morning in therapy as well. He crushed it on the occupational therapy exercises. After that it was off to speech therapy. One of the exercises required him to say Yes or No to particular situations. Mike D and I almost choked laughing when the therapist asked Dave "If bicycles could fly?" Dave answered the "therapist answer" of NO correctly....but Mike and I thought YES would have been acceptable as well in this situation. Dave's bike certainly does fly!
After a way too short rest he was off to Physical therapy. He then had lunch and then had to do it all again for an afternoon session. He is definitely tired but is doing amazing. Just give Sarah or Scott Wood a call when you are planning to head over to see him so they can give you an update on when he will be napping and such.
Sarah made it home to Jackson today for the afternoon. She was able to get a quick bike ride in with Allison!!! She is holding up and appreciates all the energy you are all sending. We are happy she got out of IF for the day. We all know the Tetons are good for the soul.
Important thing is Dave's awesome personality is shining strong!! He is the same Dave...he is just fighting hard to come to the top.
