It has been awhile since the last update, but in this case, no news it good news!  Mike is not only strengthening and healing his body but is using this time for his mind and soul as well.

Progress is steady for his physical recovery. His second visit to TRIA Orthopedics (4/22) resulted in removal of all remaining staples. X-rays show bones healing as they should be.  He is now able to have the splint off his right foot at night. He his well versed in educating care staff on his best method for using the transfer board and belt to get from chair to wheelchair, etc..  He is also taking in all instruction and advice from Physical therapy and Occupational therapy. 
He is spending more time outside the four walls of his room, joining other folks in the dining area for meals,  worship service on Sundays in the chapel and outdoor patio time with visitors as weatherallows.
His wonderful Sister-in-Law, Connie has  invited him to stay with her, at her single level, zero stairs home, whenever the next phase of his recovery begins.
As always, he is grateful for the time, love support everyone has shown him. ❤
