Yay for May

Patty says: Walter continues to hang in there like the champ that he is. Each week I see more progress. His English is coming back and he was able to tell me this AM that his breakfast was "donuts." I said to him "you are so smart" and he gave me that classic Walter smile and "cute face." His therapy at Nazareth college is over till the winter. That is a bad thing since I am struggling to find him therapy for the summer. If any of his friends could help me work him out that would be great. Basically, it would be simple exercises and supervising him on his floor bike.

Thanks to Tom for setting up the bike and Timmy and Dick for setting up my living room ramp. Thanks again to Geno for everything and thanks Vicki for bringing Tessa over. Yes Kathy she is beautiful and smart. Walter and I really enjoyed our visit with her and hope she comes over again soon.

However, I must get something off my chest that has been bothering me since Walter's accident. There are a handful of his friends that have not been a support to Walter and that is really shameful!! Hopefully, you never will know what Walter has been through and if you do hopefully your friends will not abandon you. Like I said it is just a few but it really hurts. And usually it is the guys that are the closest to Walter. He is still with us and could use a visit or a phone call to hear your voice. I am sure that if the situation were reversed, he would not abandon you.

Thanks to my "special girlfriends" that are always there for me to make me laugh and to share a visit with Walter. He loves you guys very much. And I will be forever grateful for your friendship!

To my neighbors: Walter will be out front with me all summer so stop over and say Hi. I know that he has enjoyed all of your visits.

We are still waiting for his bone flap to be made. Hopefully in the next month it will be ready. It will be great to get that over with.

That is the update for now. Enjoy the beautiful Spring and keep praying for my Walter.
