Phone calls

First of all I couldn't resist posting this picture of my sweet husband who bent over backwards to give me the perfect Valentines day. He pulled himself out of bed before our alarm went off to set up this balloon, and some presents in the kitchen. I have to say, after 30 years of being single - waking up to such a wonderful scene was out of this world. Now onto the recovery...

Each day Will's phone rings and one of his family members is on the other end. At that point one of Will's siblings proceeds to ask him questions about his day, his past, a movie, a book, etc. This task is an exercise in memory. Lisa, Will's speech therapist, has encouraged us to work in this area, and Will's family has stepped up to the plate. They are hitting home runs because Will isn't annoyed at being quizzed in this way, and he loves interacting with them. They are truly his dear friends!

As for the rest of Will's days they are very productive. He spends a good amount of time doing projects around our condo, volunteering at Globus Relief and job shadowing with a neuro surgeon at the U. When he isn't doing these things, he has been listening to news radio, reading, studying, taking notes, cleaning out his email box and/or taking care of me at the end of the day :) Things are going very well. Please continue to pray for Will. He is a remarkable man and will bless the lives of many throughout his life.
