First Official Outing...

     Jacoby got an electric wheelchair today and was able to cruise around our hospital floor.  There were a few "iffy" moments, but we all survived!  It was nice to see her gain some independence.  
     We were able to head out of the hospital for Jacoby's recreational therapy tonight.  We tried to visit some neighborhood with Christmas lights, but were too early, and none of the houses were lit up.  So... we stopped and had dinner at the Ram Restaurant!  It was quite the learning experience.  We were all pretty excited to get out of the hospital setting.  



Please no visitors until Saturday afternoon and Sunday.  Therapy during the week takes up the whole day and is exhausting!  Thank you for understanding.

  8. I'm crying too, Coach Casey. She is one special girl and comes from a very special family. The Lord puts us all through trials and I must say, this family has had their share. Trusting in the Lord is what gets them through the valleys and they always climb to the mountain top, Praising God all the way. They are an example for us all to follow.
