#29, April 11, 2009

Sean has moved up a room, from the stimulus-controlled section to a room with more of a view (of I-225) and a little more room. Tonight, we helped Sean walk from his bed to the restroom and back, and Andrea and I fed him his supper. His walks are with help, but not necessarily with mechanical support. He can go up stairs pretty well, but has trouble going down the stairs. The staff has mentioned several times that we seem to be having a good effect on him; he is less likely to balk at their attempts at helping him or giving him medications through his feeding tube than before we arrive.
We're hoping that either we can walk him to the dining room or that he can come out there to see Delaney tomorrow. When she is in the ward, she sometimes gets a little loud, and we don't like to feel that we're bothering the other patients.
Thanks as always for your prayers and positive thoughts; we feel that Sean is responding to them.
