making strides

Cameron is lieterally making strides (walking more steps) each day.  As of today he is a Rehab patient instead of a neurology patient.  YEAH!!  

Cam has an intense 3 hours of Physical and occupational therapy everyday but is having fun and getting stronger. 
His personality has 100% returned and most of the time I am loving it. There are exceptions like when he sprays me with the shower hose right before I am going out for a date with Mark!  Or when he yells at me just like he used to do at home!  Among other little Cameron quirks!    I will admit that when it was time to turn him over to Mark last night I was looking forward to the 15 hour break, he's quite the handful!
It is fun though to see him interact with all of the nurses and therapists. They think he is pretty great and laugh at him most of the day. 
At this point he is so close to being able to walk without assistance, it's amazing. 
He was truly blessed.

Thanks again to all of our GREAT family and friends that have helped us out and visited us.  Having never been on the recieving end of all the help I am feeling totally inadequate at being able to thank everyone enough.

Oh April...I'm so happy to hear that he just keeps getting better and better. Allen had so much fun the other day. He keeps asking when we can come back. We'll try to come next week if you are still there.
