Checking Out!!!

Kohlton has progressed so awesomely that he will be released from TIRR on Saturday!  We are looking forward to having him home again, especially Muffin, our kitty.  She has been whining for him ever since he went back into TIRR! 

It is amazing how much K.G. has accomplished and how strong he is.  The staff at TIRR is incredible and very understanding of not only his needs, but also the needs of the family.

Next on the agenda - college!!  Oh, and a vehicle for K.G. to drive.  We are hoping that DARS will step in again and help with both of those.

Thanks again for all the support, warm wishes and prayers.  We are truly blessed!!!

Two and a half weeks in and a lot of milestone accomplished!!  Last week went to a Rugby practice and Kohlton got to try out a sport's wheel chair.  Says it turns really fast!





A few days ago Kohlton was feeling a little under the weather and wrist pain, but is doing much better.  Please continue with your prayers for strength and healing and patience!

It's a beautiful day today!  Go out and enjoy!!

Second Phase

Well, the second phase at TIRR has begun!  Last Monday, January 7th, Kohlton began the hardest work he has ever had to do.   After struggling with the insurance company to cover the cost of inpatient care, the Texas Department of Assistive and Rehabilitative Services (DARS), has decided to sponsor the second phase for 30 days!!  It is an amazing organization providing many of the services, equipment and educational needs of the handicap. 

One week has passed and I can tell that Kohlton is getting stronger each day and accomplishing many of the task that will lead to his independence.  Transfers are no longer an issue nor is the blood pressure.  He told me yesterday that he was able to dress without assistance!!  (I greeted this with mixed emotions realizing he no longer needs his Mommy!)

Again I want to thank everyone for their continued thoughts and prayers.  Especially Andi, who has been such a good friend to me personally.  All of you have been like our personal Fry family guardian angels!




God's peace and blessings,

Nancy
