Rusty continues to recover, heal and improve while resting at home. And that's No Foolin' today!
- I spoke with him briefly; his voice is much more normal than when I talked to him a couple weeks ago. There was virtually no stumbling over his words. He called me "Indy", which I consider a good sign. He is happy with his own progress and his self-awareness seems to be getting better. He knows he's coming back.
- He is somewhat dismayed over the fact that he hasn't be able to get back online just yet. "I know I have a lot of e-mails to answer, I'm way behind." Rusty and Shelly do have a friend who is helping him with his computer, but it's liable to be awhile.
- Progress happens every day. His balance is better, he goes to the bathroom by himself using his walker and every day is a stronger day.
- There is still a bit of fogginess going on, but again - improvement every day. We've known from the get-go that this is a baby step process; now the steps are getting a little better and bigger.
Shelly said they don't know about coming to Howard Days, but it's a goal that she will have to determine as Rusty's healing continues. I told her to be careful about that but that it's good to have a goal.
- Get healthy first, Rusty, and that will make the future brighter.
Let's continue or good wishes, healing vibes and helpful prayers for our dear friend Rusty!
