Stephen Langman Update

October 5th, 2008

Dear Friends;

I realize that it is past October 2nd and some of you may be wondering if Steve has moved back home from the hospital or not. After much discussion with his Rehab Team it was decided to move his discharge date to October 23rd. He was quite relieved as he feels that he would be a burden on us at this stage, which is not true in my opinion. It is good to get the most out of Bridgepoint as he most certainly will not be getting nearly the amount of therapy at home that he receives now. And in a couple of weeks he will be that much further along in his recovery and hopefully feeling that he would rather be home than at the hospital.
Steve has been making some good gains with control of his right hand and arm and is walking at a much faster and more fluid pace. He has decided that it is time to work on getting rid of the patch over his eye. His left eye has been coming back in line as time passes so he can see with both eyes open but the image is not clear. He has decided that he can function with out the patch for some things therefore he does not wear it unless he has to; this way his eyes can get used to working together. His speech is probably the hardest for me to hear improvement since I talk with him on most days. He is still difficult to listen to for long periods because of the choppiness and monotones. He rarely chokes now though so I know that he is improving with his speech functions. (They are closely related).
I am doing much better; thanks for not asking! Thankfully, the grieving period was not too long (although the tears are not too far from the surface) and I fear that it may come back at some time but for now we are doing o.k. Steve has been keeping a journal that is helping him deal with some of it all and we have had some cry times together. He loves anything positive (actually, we both do) so keep up the encouragement.
Here is a verse that God showed me that we have been concentrating on lately.
“ So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.”
Isaiah 40:10

In His hand,
Donna Langman

Ryker Doing His Best At The Butterfly

Honestly is the Butterfly not the most ridiculous swimming stroke. Just look at my guy, he's about to drown. He tells me it's very hard but he still keeps trying his best. I have NO doubt he will be able to do this stroke.

I was lucky enough to even get this video... I was unaware that you are NO allowed to take photos or video's at the YMCA. What is wrong with this world!!! Apparently I could be a pervert ... I told them I would be more then happy to show them my video after his lesson, but rules are rules... I will tell you he kick butt with his front stroke, but the video police stopped me before I could get it on tape.

Follower's WANTED!!!!

So I was on Elisa's blog and notice that the follower's gadget was now working... I tried to put it on my blog a while back but it wasn't working... So if you follow my blog please add yourself!!!

Have A Wonderful Day!!!

My Husbands Idea Of A Healthy Snack

So I was busy upstairs putting away the laundry, and the kids were asking for a snack. I instructed David to get the kids a snack and assumed he would get them something healthy.

You will notice that our son was given the correct snack option.

Way To Go Reegan

Finally a new post... Sorry for taking so long.

Thanks to everyone who commented and said Hi.. or Hello on my last post. It's great to hear from you guys.

I had to show you what Reegan can now do in Gymnastics... She loves the un-even bars and did this jump over and over for the last 15 minuets of the class. She even managed to do it without the help of her instructors hand a few times.

The somersault on the balance beam was new this week!!!

She's the best!!!
