February 28th

Four weeks ago our lives changed! Hopefully, we come out better people because of this experience.

Today has been great, Jared had some frustrations last night and was really tired. He fell asleep around 8:30 and didn't wake up until 8:00 this morning.

When you have head injuries some days can become overwhelming and extremely tiring. Speech therapy seems to be the hardest, it causes the brain to work the most. I think speech therapy should have a name change - they do more than actual speech, they work on cognitive, memory and swallowing. Jared only has troubles with his memory, luckily!

Jared decided that he is ready to be sprung from the joint....so he told me he was going to knock down therapies so they will let him leave soon. He accomplished all of his goals plus more...Go JaReD!

Tomorrow we will be given a tentative release date...Jared definitely wants to be back to St. George by his birthday - March 28th.

We did have two mishaps - he slipped in the shower with the tech and he fell during physical therapy. He hurt his hip and got some rug burns but he is tough and doing alright.
