Grant is Truly a Miracle! He's recovering nicely!



Sorry for not posting lately. I've been meaning to daily, but life is so busy lately! Grant is a miracle! Every day has shown progress. Today, he's finally been cleared by the insurance to go back to the Rehab Unit here at Children's. Now we have to wait for a bed.....no idea how long that will take.


We've been getting out of the hospital on 4 hour passes every day for the past week or so. First day we went to see Indiana Jones. The next day we also went out for dinner by Greenlake at Zeeks' Pizza after we went and bought new shoes. We had a little going away party for Matt. He went back fishing last Sat. There are only about 3 trips left, so now that Grant is doing so well, he might as well go make some money while he still can.


The past several days he's been just coming home. We brought his computer downstairs yesterday, so he's back to playing online.


He has PT, OT & Speech therapies most days, and he's workin' it! He's walking with the help of a walker. He's really working hard to get his life back. I can see the old Grant coming back everyday. It's truly been a miracle......and boy, are we thankful!

I can't tell you how excited I was to see today's post. I've been checking daily hoping for an update.

Grant, you truly are an amazing young man...I know Mrs. Case will be thrilled to hear how you are improving (she's busy in Africa getting chased by elephants and rhinos).

Let me know what video games you play...I might have to come down to test my skills :-)

Oh I'm so happy to see your handsome face sitting at a restaurant, Grant! Thank you, Kim, for keeping us updated with this wonderful news! Grant IS truly a miracle, and we are continuing to pray daily for healing and recovery.

Keep that "YES Attitude" going, Grant - you are an inspiration to all of us!

Love, Mrs. Perry :-)

So exciting to hear how well you're doing Grant! I'm amazed at the healing work going on in your body and praise God for it. Blessings, peace and strength as you forge ahead with PT and all your other therapies. God will continue to provide all you need.
Peace,
Intern Pastor Jen

Yea!! Glad you're able to get out of the hospital some. If it takes too long waiting for a bed to open up on rehab, you could check into having rehab at home. My former employer, Gentiva Rehab Without Walls has excellent services and fantastic pediatric/adolescent program. They provide great intensive services 425-672-9219. It can be really nice to have the services at home rather than in the hospital. Congrats to you on all you have achieved! Keep up the hard work! It's paying off!
