Update On Jason

Sounds like God is listening to our prayers. Here is the latest update on Jason. I got this from his mother Saturday afternoon.

All:Sorry for the delay in sending out another update.

Jason was transferred to the Baylor Institute of Rehabilitation on Wednesday morning. The first doctor that saw him said he would probably be at the facility for one to two weeks. As soon as she left, Jason said there was no way he would be there for two weeks.

As of today, I also firmly believe he will not have to be there two weeks. He has made remarkable progress since Wednesday. He went from walking with a walker (in a great deal of pain) very slowly down the hospital hallway on Wednesday to walking without a walker yesterday. He still has it close by, but does very well without it. He will have to wear a back brace with a section connected to his left thigh, for six to eight weeks, anytime he is out of bed. It is one of the few things that he will not be able to do for himself when he comes home. He does still have some numbness and weakness in his left leg and foot, but that should continue to improve as the nerves settle down.

His wonderful smile is back, including the dimples and he is quickly gaining back his appetite. So I just wanted to share the good news with all of you and thank you all again for your prayers, visits, food, etc!!!

I hope each of you have a wonderful Easter with your families!!
