Fun times in Southern Iowa. We have had enough ice to last us the winter. Some people got power yesterday and some didn't get any until today. The storm hit here Monday during the night. It's nice that Dad and Mom (where Rachel lives ;-) have a generator and wood heat! Josh and I stayed with them on the farm Tuesday night instead of staying in our cold apartment.
Rachel is doing well. The ice has been a challenge, one that she has taken on with courage. Walking on all the ice has been interesting, but she has done well with it. Today was Physical Therapy, he worked her hard for the full hour.
Rachel and I spent time this afternoon, when the power came back on, doing some last minute Christmas shopping online. I noticed that Rachel is able to type with her left hand and use a couple fingers with her right hand on the keyboard. I bet typing is still very frustrating since she was very quick at it before.
Tomorrow (Friday) Rachel goes to Kansas City for another HBOT. She missed Monday and Wednesday because of the storms that moved in. So, I'm sure she is ready to have another treatment, so she can finish up her 20 sessions, sooner than later. -they say it takes about 20 times to see a real improvement.
Thanks for understanding the delay in the update.

Hi, Rachel,
Look out for the ice! We got an ice storm here a week or so back, and it is still kind of slippery out. I went on a walk yesterday and nearly slipped and crashed a few times. I admire your bravery for trying it when it is fresh! Still thinking of you and praying for you!
