Day 30- September 18: Inpatient Rehabilitation Updates

As the deer longs for streams of water, so I long for you, O God.
Psalms 42:1 NLT

๐Ÿงฆ๐Ÿ‘ŸOccupational Therapy:

Dad had Eval for OT today

Dad did great getting ready!!

Goals: bathing, endurance

Discussed some home needs: will discuss further but got some obvious things noted


๐ŸšถPhysical Therapy:

Walked with walker down the hall.

Dad did the bike in the gym for just over 10 minutes with some resistance. Wheelchair back (used feet to peddle some). 


๐Ÿ—’️Other Updates:

Then I took Dad outside. We were probably  for about 30 minutes to get some fresh air and enjoy the beautiful day. So nice but he was really tired.

I was able to support transferring him to bed when we got back.

We spent time reading the Bible and praying together throughout the day. 

Dad had a lot of visitors including family, friends and co-workers! He was so thrilled by this and blown away to have so many people visiting! It was wonderful!

He took a few cat naps during the day.


❤️๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿป๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿป๐Ÿ™๐Ÿป๐ŸŽ‰Updates and Prayer Requests from Dad:

Dad wants to meet the milestones to get home

So much appreciation for everyone what has visited and helped. ❤️❤️ (Words cannot express all of our appreciation. We are so grateful for the incredible love and support all around!! Thank you!!!!)


๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿป๐ŸŽ‰❤️Praises:

Dad continues to make significant progress!! It's truly incredible. Thank you God for the amazing ways you're healing his body and his mind!!

Again, so very grateful for the prayers and support from so many!! ❤️❤️❤️๐Ÿฅฐ

Thank You, God, for Your provision: perfect time, perfect place, Your perfect plan, even and especially when we're unsure. 

And many many more!!


๐Ÿ™๐Ÿป❤️ Prayer Requests:

Dad's continued healing. Strength and rest and peace. God's help in continuing to trust His perfect timing and plan in it all. I know Dad would love to be home, but is also excited for the ways God is continuing to use His story and time where he is right now. 

His roommate. For them to connect and have the opportunity to know one another. For them to see and know Christ's love.

All of the staff and patients and families at this facility. God, continue to use Dad's story far above and beyond what we could even begin to imagine. 

Health and rest all around! 

Also, we are praying for each of YOU!! ❤️๐Ÿซ‚๐Ÿ™๐Ÿป๐Ÿ™๐Ÿป❤️ We are so incredibly grateful for your prayers and love and support! Your prayers have literally been life changing! Life giving! Life restoring!! Praise God and thank you!! And we are praying for you. For the known and unknown requests. We know our God hears and He answers!! We know He cares so deeply for each of us, for our big and small cares and worries and requests: all of it! He knows our hearts and yet, He wants to hear about it all from us. ❤️ If there's any way we can be praying for you specifically, please let us know. It would be our absolute pleasure to love and support you in this way. ๐Ÿซ‚๐Ÿ™๐Ÿป❤️ (As you may have noticed, I've never shared specifics of people and requests outside of our own story. I'm happy to share if you want, but won't generally plan to do so unless requested).  We have and will continue to pray for you, fervently, because we know our God hears and He does answer our prayers. Let His will be done. And if not in alignment with what we feel is our hearts desire, let our hearts be shaped to be more in alignment with His, knowing His plans for us are good (even when they look like a crazy, unlikely accident that brings us so close to death that is almost impossible we're alive). He is still good. He is enough. 



Trust in God | Elevation Worship

Blessed assurance
Jesus is mine
He's been my fourth man in the fire time after time
Born of His Spirit
Washed in His blood
And what He did for me on calvary is more than enough

Oh I trust in God
My Savior
The one who will never fail
He will never fail

I trust in God
My Savior
The one who will never fail
He will never fail

Perfect submission
All is at rest
I know the author of tomorrow has ordered my steps
So this is my story
And this is my song (amen)
I'm praising my risen King and Savior all the day long
I trust in God
My Savior

The one who will never fail
He will never fail
I trust in God
My Savior

The one who will never fail
He will never fail
He didn't fail you then
He won't fail you now

I sought the Lord and He heard and He answered
I sought the Lord and He heard and He answered
I sought the Lord and He heard and He answered
That's why I trust Him, that's why I trust Him
