August 4, 2008




So much has happened with Stephany & Broady now, and it is ALL good! Both of themn are in great spirits and their attitudes are extremely positive. As you can see they are still very happy and still acting silly!!

Stephany is now walking around without the aid of a crutch or wheel chair. She is only required to wear her "black" boot on her left leg. She is also still wearing her"Edward Scissor" hand on her left arm that enables her to be able to use her wrist and fingers. The "hand" specialist seems to think that the nerve is coming back, very slowly but surely. Hopefully she will avoid any additional surgery. She is back at work at Sonic on Nelson Road, the one by Stines. Stephany is still in physical therapy twice a week.

Broady is back at T.I.R.R. (Texas Institute of Rehabilitation and Research) for further physical therapy. He was walking with a cane before going back! When he got to TIRR they took the cane away and put him back on a walker. They also informed us that his bones have grown 2 inches since the accident and that is part of the problem with his feet. Wow, 2 inches in 4 months! Well they have started putting casts on his feet. They are stretching his feet and casting them in that position. He has gone from a -20 to a -8. We went to visit him this past week end and he is really doing great, his spirits are good and he keeps everyone laughing, even his roommate and all of the nurses.

Please keep praying for both of these kids. GOD has been watching over them and performing miracles daily. They are very Blessed!
