June 2nd

From Margaret

Ginny and Steve are settling into a routine after a very special weekend of wedding celebrations for Robert and Tiffany. The team at the Sheppard Center went to great lengths to accommodate our intimate group helping make it a memorable day. The bride and groom wed in the Secret Garden surrounded by lots and lots of beautiful flowers with a reception on the 7th floor following the ceremony. The wedding was sweet and full of much love and happiness. 

No rest for the weary though! Steve resumed physical therapy Saturday and is back at it in full force this week. Though Steve is determined and maintains a great attitude, he along with the rest of the family realize he MAY improve and he MAY NOT improve. Meanwhile, he is spending 6-7 hours doing therapy each day and is pooped not just because of his strenuous schedule, but also because his lungs are only working at 75-80% capacity making breathing, talking, etc. literally exhausting. 

We expect Steve to transition from inpatient to outpatient sometime towards the end of June at which point he will continue doing rehab at Sheppard until he (and the family) are ready to move on. 

The love, support, cards, messages, baskets of food, and prayers are going a long way to keep our spirits high. THANK YOU to everyone for keeping us in your hearts.
