Dave, God has been the one consistent factor in this whole thing! Chris =
has been walking more and the spasms get worse and worse. I was hoping =
(and still think a bit) that the spasms were/would make the muscles =
stronger due to dynamic tension, but they are so disruptive and =
discouraging for Chris. He gets embarrassed if people other than family =
are around when they happen.
Chrias has been given a discharge date of Feb 26..but he has not been =
able to find an accessible place yet. They live in a tiny trailer and he =
would not be able to climb the stairs, never mind negotiate in the home. =
A lot of people are trying to help, but three room accessible apartments =
are hard to come by at a decent rental, without being in the worst part =
of town. Again we are trusting in God..trying not to take things in our =
own hands (as if we could change all of this!).
Tom
