Wednesday Night - Feb 25

We let Jerry sleep in this morning which pretty much threw the whole day off, but that's OK. Jerry's morning routine takes about 3 1/2 sometimes 4 hours before we can get him out of bed so needless to say when you sleep till noon the day is gone.

Jessica will be taking her behind the wheel driver test tomorrow, she's very excited and nervous. Jessica has been saving her money for many years and purchased a 95 Jetta which we will pick up on Friday, she got a pretty good deal. It will be some time before Jess can drive her new car because the Jetta is a stick shift and Jess has never driven a stick. So now it will be like teaching her to drive all over again.

Jess had a scrimmage game in Los Gatos for those not familiar with the area Los Gatos is about 40 minutes from our house. We really needed to get Jerry out of the house because he hasn't been out for a few days we need to take advantage when it's not raining. We took Jerry to Jess's game but it was way to cold to get him out of the car not to mention he just wasn't feeling good. Jerry and I watched the game from inside the car with the heater on, actually Jerry slept through most of it. Jerry has been struggling with nausea it really nags at him pretty much on a daily basis.

We have decided to contact SCI-Fit in Pleasenton to try and schedule a visit for Monday. We can't wait for a van, we've spent to much time already not in rehab, everyday not doing some sort of rehab seems wasted. We will have to suck it up and do car transfers, we can do it. Dennis made a piece of exercise equipment for Jerry to work his biceps. It's like the skateboard he used at Valley Medical. We still do his range of motion everyday at home of course but it's just not enough, he needs to get in the gym with real therapists. It will probably be about three weeks before he can get authorization and scheduled for Dominican Rehab so we decided it would be a good time to check out SCI-Fit.

God has been faithful and loving and merciful. I needed sunshine and God delivered, in our moment of despair God comforted, when we struggle with hope God reminds us to never give up. Thank you father for loving and caring for us and bringing peace in the midst of tragedy, Glory to you Lord. Amen.
