From Fayetteville, North Carolina

Hello everyone. My daughter, Nicole drove our mother's car up last night to Baltimore. Then we drove back here. But I will be back with Mike on Sunday or Monday. Mike had an okay day yesterday. Doing all of his therapies and begging mother to help him out or just help him. The nurses say this is normal. Today he ate some pudding and drank some type of nectar. No water or ice because he can't seem to swallow thin liquids well yet. But this is still good. So mother is there by herself but has called me all day giving me updates which I will continue to give all of you. Mike thinks I have left him but mother is reassuring him that Cathy had to take care of a few affairs and was coming right back. Thank you again for all the kind messages and prayers. Even though we make big deals about these little steps, please understand that Mike still has a long road to recovery with his traumatic brain injury. All visitors are more than welcome. His childhood friend, Mike Osbourn and his family are coming up tomorrow to see Mike and visit. Great! I know Mike is going to enjoy that visit. I promise to continue to update you. Will write more tomorrow.
