Day 84 - September 7 - Visitors

We've determined that Connor is ready for visitors again. He's settled enough here, and things are stable enough, that we're ready for his friends to come by. He is currently in the Rehab Trauma Center on the second floor, although he should hopefully be moving down to the Rehab Center tomorrow or the next day.

This place is a bit different from Fresno - because they are working with him regularly, he has a schedule for PT and OT, and it's a bit different every day. I don't know if that will be the case in the Rehab Center, but here in the RTC it's fairly hit-or-miss. Sunday is the only day of the week that they don't do therapy. Because of that, predicting a good visiting time is difficult. Some general guidelines - early mornings and after dinner don't work, so please don't plan on visiting at these times without coordinating directly with us first. Also, please don't plan "all-day" visits; he has to take naps during the day due to how tiring his therapy can be, so please be considerate for him. Finally, I know I don't have to say this but please be thoughtful of his health - if you have a cold or flu or something, please help him stay healthy by waiting until your symptoms are gone. Also, the facility has a pretty strict limit of two visitors at a time. Please plan accordingly!

We are so thankful for all of you, and for how you continue to lift Connor and our family up daily in prayer. We are glad to be closer to home and closer to our hometown family. We've learned, however, that "home" really is not a building or a place, but rather it is primarily in the presence of your children and family. It's an odd feeling, being in your own house but not being "at home". We can't wait to be all together in our house again.
