What a GREAT day yesterday was! In physical therapy dad was able to take 12 small steps!!! He doesn't have the strength to hold all his body weight so he was assisted with holding himself up with straps and a couple of people...but...the actually movement of his legs he was able to make them do HIMSELF! Mom tried to explain what he was holding onto...my understand is that is it like parallel bars but on wheels like a walker (I'll let you come up with your own visual on that one). Praise God!
When I saw him last Sunday he mentioned that his birthday plan (his birthday is his Friday) was to take his first step. Well 4 days prior he took 12!
Praise God for all he has done and is doing with dad's recovery. We are praying that this is the start to some encouraging rehab and a light of hope for dad. Please join us in those prayers along with his body getting stronger and healthier.

My mom sent me the link to your blog. We just heard about your dad about mid-December. We are all praying for him and for you all as a family.
