SLEEP!

Jason has begun to get a lot more sleep. We are now making him go upstairs and sleep in his bed. This is better for him because he's not waking up when Mike leaves and again when Steven leaves.

Jason has been working on straightening his leg and putting a sock on his left foot. He can put some pressure on his left foot and at times can get around with just one crutch (when the pain lets up).

After exercising a lot, Jason irritated tendons around the ankle area. He has to give them a rest so that they can heal, but he can still do most of his muscle strengthening exercises.

Please pray that his left ankle regains the strength and flexibility it once had. Also continue to pray for the nerves to completely heal and for Jason to focus more on the answers to prayer, how well he's doing and the progress he's made, rather than the remaining healing and unknown time frames for having everything back to normal.

Jason,

We are so proud of you. Keep up the great work! It must be nice to be back in your own bedroom with all your "stuff"!

We continue to pray for you and your family!

Love you,
