Good Morning Everyone,
It has been about a month since my last post. Jose has been having a great time. The best part of the last month was when the three children came to visit. When Gaige, Alexandria, Mercedes and I arrived at the house you should have seen his face light up! It was possibly the best surprise he ever could have had. It was a busy and fun filled week. Jose got to go to Busch Gardens, the FL State Fair, MOSI, the Aquarium and Sea World with the children. The kids had a blast taking Daddy out to do these things. Jose loved watching the kids playing in the pool and just listening to their voices and laughter. It was amazing to see his reaction to the children. Those three kids are still the light in Jose's eyes. The spent about a week and a half down here before returning home. It was so sweet to watcyh as each one tried to help Daddy in some way. They all wanted to be right there with him.
Since then we have made plans to bring the kids back next month for another vacation visit. I cannot begin to express how positive and theraputic it is for Jose to have the kids visit. They definately kept Jose busy and on his toes! :)
Other than that Jose is doing very well. Getting ready to have a pool lift installed so we may be able to get Jose into the pool a little bit. He's still doing his therapies at the hospital three days a week and seems to be consistent with everything. Its getting warmer down here now to where most evenings are spent outside without having to cover him up. The days are warm and sunny.
As always we keep Jose busy and "out and about". Its working amazingly well for all of us. We are all very excited for the kids to come back and visit! I'm sure Jose is the most excited of all of us though! :)
Thank you everyone for the continued support and prayers. May God Bless.
Elizabeth
PS: If I get extra time I'll try to post additional odds and ends within this weekend but I wanted to take a minute to at least fill you in with this. :)
