News of the past two weeks....while I was in Long Beach for work, Jordan fulfilled another of his goals to be achieved before year's end. He had Dad take him down to a large open carpark where he could hop on his scooter and ride it for the first time since his accident!!! And ride he did....the full length of the carpark. What once was such a simple task brought tears of joy to my eyes as I watched the video John sent through. I was so proud and amazed and, yet again, inspired by our son's perserverance and determination.
Most recently, Jordan partook in his elementary school's Fun Run/walk. We did it as a family and although it took about 30 mins, Jordan walked the whole mile unaided. The farthest he has walked since his discharge from Phoenix last July!!!!!! Another milestone.
Day by day Jordan is making progress towards, what we pray, will be a full recovery. It is at times slow but then we look back to 3, 6 or 12 months ago and are reminded how VERY far he has come and we are Thankful, very Thankful.
