Sunday Sept.16th

Debbie had the day off today, she needed the rest. Of course she was a home organizing Davis' closet and looks like all of the baseball and football cleats from the past 18 years, there must been twenty pair neatly arranged by size and color on the garage floor. I stay home until late yesterday afternoon, she gave me some time to watch the Auburn game. Almost would have rather been at the hospital, I thought they were going to put me in one, the way they played.

Christopher has had a good day. He and I went out into the garden early this morning, it was a very nice day, a little bit of sun mixed with a little breeze to keep it from being to hot. After that I took him into the game room and we rolled the cue ball around on the pool table. He was able to track the ball very well as it went from side to side. To get him out of the wheelchair we went into the gym where we got onto the mat and we worked on stretching his lower body, focusing on his lower back, hamstrings, calves and his ankle flexion. We also worked his upper body, shoulders and upper arms. I don't think he enjoyed me hugging on him as much as he does Stephanie his usual physical therapist, she is much nicer to look at than dad. But he did well, considering my feminine shortcomings.

We eventually made it back to the room, where we entertained a steady stream of visitors for the next few hours. It was great, we got some additional decorations for the room. Katherine Segell and Hanna Singer brought in pictures of Christopher with many of his friends. Not much space left on the walls right now. It looks great. Thanks to Frank and Karen, Mike, Marley and her mother, Susan for coming by It was great to see you all, Katherine, Hanna and Mike it was a pleasure to meet you. We look forward to seeing you all again. I am sure Christopher loved seeing you and hearing your voices.
