Great Days!

I am happy to report that Luke has been having some great days with therapy. All of his home therapists this week have told me how hard he is working. He walked up and down the stairs both days with his PT, and I must say...his walking has been looking really good lately!

I am sitting here at his therapy place now listening to his OT brief a new OT student on Luke. It does my heart good to hear him speak so highly of Luke and how far he has come since he has started coming here in July. Praise God for the amazing progress this kid is making!!

We started him back at Hyperbaric Oxygen therapy last week, and he seems to have made the adjustment back to that fairly well. There is an older boy there. Luke loves to go see his friend Jordan there, and Mike said the kid really seems to enjoy being with Luke in there. Of course Luke loves to give Jordan "knucks!"

Short but sweet...I promise more pictures next week!

It is always great to hear how well Luke is doing. I bet at one time you couldn't imagine Luke walking up and down stairs ~ that really is amazing. Glad to hear that the Oxygen therapy is going pretty good. That is nice that he has a friend that he can look forward to seeing.
Love & hugs,
Nancy

It sure is wonderful to hear how well Luke is doing. Great job on the stairs Luke! Giving your buddy "knucks" is priceless. Way to start the new year off right Luke! - All the Best, The Monahans

When we stopped by the other day and saw luke it was so heart warming to see how far he has come. It was Brucies first time seeing Luke since his accident, Bruce didnt want to hurt him and got kind of shy but Luke brightened up as soon as mike told him bruce was there to see him and luke got up and pointed at bruce because he wanted to give him "knucks" it was the sweetest thing ever.. Luke had his fishing buddy back : ) we love you guys im glad he is doing so well - Love Brooke Nichols
