At Sharp Rehab

So I was transferred to Sharp Memorial Rehabiliation Center on Tuesday the 8th of Feb. It was fairly uneventful...except we had to make the trip twice because the ambulance drivers forgot to bring paperwork. Thankfully, I have been cleared to remove my neck brace while in bed and only need to wear it during therapy sessions or when I'm out and about. I'm looking forward to settling in here for the next couple of months and working hard on the road to recovery. Therapy right now is focusing on gaining more dexterity in my hands and strengthening my arms and core so that I will be more mobile. I appreciate everone's kind thoughts, but right now I can't answer my own phone nor type (Molly's dictating right now). I think after a week or so of settling in here and getting into a routine I should be able to start receiving visitors. Please continue to send your prayers and best wishes my way, as space is very limited in my small room and there is no room for flowers.
Thanks again to everyone for your support!

    Hey Buddy,

    My mom in MI put you on the prayer list at her church. I've been on that list a few times myself and it works! You've been an inspiration since I've known you and I'm positive you will continue to inspire! See you soon!
