Good Morning - Sorry I'm Late In Posting
Mike didn't want us to leave him last evening and he wanted us to stay longer. Remember we're not allowed to stay late. He hasn't slept well the past couple of nights because of his room mate who was discharged yesterday. The room mate would stay up most of the night on the phone talking to his girlfriend. A lot of his conversations were XXX rated. The night before, Mike tried to get out of bed. His wheel chair was right next to his bed and he thought he could do it by himself and fell. He didn't get hurt, thank God. Mike said he was trying to get up and away from the guy so he wouldn't have to listen to all the trashy talk. So we had to do a lot of comforting last night. On a lighter note, Mike walked with a walker across the physical therapy room with the therapist behind him to keep him steady. Yeah!!! Mother, Rochelle, and his two youngest children were able to watch. They all beamed with joy. So all in all yesterday was good and today will be better. I will be so glad when he will be able to look at this site and TWR's site. We have hand copied some of the poems to read to him today and we're trying to arrange it so we can hook up somewhere there so he can start reading it all. Time to go now but I will be back tonight. Love, prayers, and well wishes to all.

So sorry that you had a rough night
last night. Just know that we are
pulling for you...we are with you
in spirit, even during the night
watches...We are asking Jesus to
put His Hedge round you both day
and night...and to bind any hin-
drance from you receiving his
blessing.
Man that is horrible that he had to put up with a room mate like that. To me that was just rude of that guy. Rude enough just talking on the phone so late but ruder yet what he was talking about. I sure hope that Mike sleeps better now that the roommate is gone. I am lighting a candle and saying prayers for Mike as well as Barbaro. You just rest, take it easy and get better Mike.
I just posted a message from "Bobby Jackson" (formally called Barbaro) in which he mentions Mike.
He says that he remembers Mike and used to "Neigh-Hello" at him.
He says that Mike should just do what he is doing which is:
Listen to His Doctors and Go With the Flow
Continuing to light a candle for you.
Barbaro just sent me a poem in which he mentioned you. He said that he remembered you and used to "Neigh" hello.
He is thinking of you and he hopes that you will do is he is doing which is be patient, think positive thoughts, and let you body heal so that you can get back to horses.
Beaming with joy! That would describe all of us if we could have seen you walking the length of the therapy room. Fantastic!
I pray for more "amazing grace" to be given to you and your family as you continue to focus on your goal. Hope your night will be peaceful, and that you will enjoy the day tomorrow, even with all the work they make you do! :) You and Barbaro are two different, but kindred, miracles in progress.
