Word about Timothy was very hopeful and promising with his progress. Tracey has done an amazing job with the website entries: https://www.caringbridge.org/site/9ac1d169-e1bf-11ef-a3c0-e3b0215c5121

12:30pm **For those of you have inquired about how I am doing, I’ll briefly let you know that although physically I am tired and my knees are sore – all the walking, lifting, etc is good therapy! Thank goodness that I was progressing well and am as far out from knee replacement surgery as I am (5 weeks tomorrow). I finally slept 7 hours last night so I feel much more rested and…I guess, peaceful, able to emotionally handle the day. I am trying to be obedient to Matthew 6:34 & taking one day at a time. Look how far Timothy has come! It is because of the prayers of so many of you and the hope and grace God gives that I am feeling this way. I feel your prayers empower and support me in ways I cannot put into words. Thank you again for investing in our family through your words and deeds!!**
A very good morning! Timothy has been awake and aware and holding a conversation with me for the past two hours. It is the first time he seemed to understand why he is where he is. He responded, “That’s not good!” when I explained that I found him unconscious and “Oh, no!” when I told him he had surgery to remove a mass from his brain. I re-read comments listed here as well as texts received since his hospitalization, and he said, “Tell them, ‘Thank you! Keep going [with prayers]’.” His speech is still slow and garbled but understandable. For our neighbors, he responded, “That’s a good thing about a small community” when I shared your well-wishes and so many offers of help and meals. I had to smile when he remarked, “They do that anyway” when I told her that our AHG troop friends were praying for our family. Roberta, he let out a big belly laugh when I read your note about picking out the menu for the next staff meeting! When his day nurse Cindy asked about how high schoolers were nowadays, he just said, “Drama.” (A very Timothy answer!) He did get very emotional all of a sudden with concerns about his diagnosis (especially how it affects the girls), and so we had to focus on today and our blessings. We are currently waiting for rounds from Neurology.

*writing a “concern” request from an “unnamed” vendor* We got a reply that someone was reviewing our information and formulating a plan of action. [Never heard from them again for the next 5 work hours]
