I didn't go down to see Jeremy this morning because he and his roomate were heading to the movies for occupational therapy...maybe I could sign up for that too. I asked him if they got to ride in the special bus; but, alas, it was just a Ford Taurus. He said everything went well. His back was killing him by the end of the movie. It is hard for him to be sitting up so long.
For physical therapy Jeremy walked 250 ft with the walker. His therapist was surprised that he could walk with the walker at all. He should have known by the Superman sticker that Jeremy means business. They decided not to take molds of his right leg for the brace after all. They're thinking that by the time the brace is made, he might not need it anymore. It's pretty expensive so we didn't insist.
He is still eating and keeping food down, although, all he ate for lunch was popcorn at the movies. They are concerned that he has another UTI and are running tests. The most exciting news is that he is coming home tomorrow around noon! His first appointment for out-patient therapy is Thursday and we'll be ordering his wheelchair then.
ps Aunt Mare: I tried that blog address and it didn't work, could you re-send the address?

Hi Wendy,
Thanks for the updates. Glad things are going well. Do they have a patch on Jeremy yet? Has it helped? Hope backwards on the ramp goes better tomorrow :)
Love,

Hey guys,
We're glad you're overnight stay went well overall, and it sounds like Jeremy is really doing well. My new brother-in-law had back surgery (he separated his L2 & L3 vertebrae) after a bad accident and said that he wasn't able to keep anything down and had no appetite while he was in the hospital too. He said it finally went away after he went home... so maybe that will happen for you too! Kimmie and Em say "hi" to Ayden and Claire! Even the girls are praying for Jeremy every night. We love you guys, keep on truckin'!
