Walking for real

I got back to the hospital last nite around 10ish. Tate, Kendall and I were bushed. Both boys fell alseep on the way up but not before we had an awesome conversation about heaven and hell. Long story short, both boys decided heaven is the better choice and they would rather obey Christ than live in hell. (Tate said the barrel expolding was hot enough and seeing what Cole looks they didnt want to look like him forever!) Talk about getting misty eyed! One thing that was hard for them to comprehend was the forever living in heaven part. To be honest a being forever om eternity is hard for me to wrap my head around but who cares how long that is once your there! :)

C had PT therapy today, yes on a saturday I thought maybe he would get a break. No such luck! The tech made him get out of bed and walk from one side, around the foot of his bed to the other side and then sit in his chair. He cried the whole time and Kendall (C's twin) was in the room and had his ears covered and didnt want to look. I'm guessing it was hard for him to see his brother in pain and having to endure that. We made him go to the waiting room. C did good he actually walked and wasnt doing his 'shuffle'. She had ahold of C's hands today and was leading him instead of C leaning on her. When the tech was leaving she said monday she's gonna bring in a walker and C can walk on his own. I know I'm his mom but that seems like pushing it a little. So I guess whatever gets us out of these 4 walls sooner. I hate to see him have to push himself through the pain and stiffness, but I know that it needs to be done in order for us to move ahead. Marv on the other hand would probally let him stay in bed until.....well forever. He hated having to see C go through that as well. He's more the compassionate one in our marriage.

We've been here 4 weeks today. It seems like a lifetime could have passed and yet time has flown. Its hard to explain how it can seem like both. If all goes according to plan we have maybe 3-4 more weeks here. Please pray these go quickly! On a side note...I was thinking of taking questions and then answering them on the blog. Let me if you have questions by checking the funny tab at the bottom of this post. If I have 10 or more then I'll consider doing that. Thanks and enjoy the rest of the weekend!!!
