Leslie and I are kinda dizzy after all the people we have seen this morning, I also learned allot of abbreviations so I will share them with you, first we started out with (OT) Occupational therapy, they did several workouts and stretches with Leslie's upper body, arms, hands, and fingers, Leslie's movement has improved and I am very proud of her. Then we had (PT) Physical therapy come by, this is were we work on Leslie Sitting up , standing, getting out of bed and walking, my wife did really well. Then back to the room we went, there we ha just enough time to catch our breath before (SP) speech therapy came by to see us, as I sat there and listened to the questions and problems they asked her to solve,I began to realize I was having a hard time answering them, so when they left I told Leslie she had out scored me by a mile , another proud moment for her husband. Then as we were finishing up (SP) a knock on the door and here we go to (RT) recreational therapy, I was anxious to see what high tech equipment and things they were gong to use on us, and after getting put in position we were hooked up to a Wii, we did Wii therapy, so my wife and I went bowling, for those not sure what a Wii is ,it is a video game that just so happens does and incredible job at eye hand coordination not to mention it is kinda fun, and I must say my wife had several strikes during the game. Today was not really the funnest day though, because Leslie's lower back has really been hurting her from being in the bed for the last seven days, so after going bowling we went back to the room laid down for just a moment then back up for one more round of (PT) physical therapy we stood up and worked on our balance and took some small steps, Leslie also learned a little about operating a wheel chair she did very well. Since getting back in the room we have been in bed resting and taking care of a headache, while I have been typing this post my wife has been sleeping very soundly, this is a good thing, because I have a feeling she will need this rest for tomorrow.

Well that's all for now, I may have more to share before the day is over but until next time, thank you all again for your love prayers and support Leslie Beau and I cant thank you enough.

The body of Christ is a beautiful thing to behold, to watch it, and feel its impact is an incredible thing....

Psalm 33

Sing joyfully to the LORD, you righteous; it is fitting for the upright to praise him.
Praise the LORD with the harp; make music to him on the ten-stringed lyre.
Sing to him a new song; play skillfully, and shout for joy.
For the word of the LORD is right and true; he is faithful in all he does.
The LORD loves righteousness and justice; the earth is full of his unfailing love.
By the word of the LORD were the heavens made, their starry host by the breath of his mouth.
He gathers the waters of the sea into jars ;he puts the deep into storehouses.
Let all the earth fear the LORD; let all the people of the world revere him.
For he spoke, and it came to be; he commanded, and it stood firm.
The LORD foils the plans of the nations; he thwarts the purposes of the peoples.
But the plans of the LORD stand firm forever, the purposes of his heart through all generations.
Blessed is the nation whose God is the LORD, the people he chose for his inheritance.
From heaven the LORD looks down and sees all mankind;
from his dwelling place he watches all who live on earth-
he who forms the hearts of all, who considers everything they do.
No king is saved by the size of his army; no warrior escapes by his great strength.
A horse is a vain hope for deliverance; despite all its great strength it cannot save.
But the eyes of the LORD are on those who fear him, on those whose hope is in his unfailing love,
to deliver them from death and keep them alive in famine.
We wait in hope for the LORD; he is our help and our shield.
In him our hearts rejoice, for we trust in his holy name.
May your unfailing love rest upon us, O LORD, even as we put our hope in you

God bless
