Dear family,
As you can see, Uncle Johnny and Aunt Sally have come for a visit to
Colorado.
We were all at my mom and dad's house.
Kim and the boys brought Chuckie over too. He is still making improvements. Uncle Johnny was talking to him almost the whole time we were all together and it was like medicine to Chuckie. He whispered to him and in this picture they were pretending to arm wrestle.
Kim said that this week is the week that Craig Rehab comes to evaluate Chuckie to see if he will be able to get into the center or not. Chuckie IS getting stronger. He DOES understand us. When Uncle Johnny asked him to blink his eyes, he did, when he asked him to close his left eye he did. He squeezed his hand and more. He really needs this rehab place to get him working on the strength in his left side. He does move it but it is very weak. I thought you might
enjoy these pictures to see how far Chuckie has come. We are all hopeful for his continued improvements. Today he told me he loved me in a quiet whisper. It did my heart good! I LOVE MY UNCLE CHUCKIE!
love to all,
les
The Colorado cousins
