7-Eleven again

Brent with Laurie, Barb and Angie.

Brent with Amy and Aeltsje.

Continue to pray for:
Pain in Brent's back.
Pain in Brent's left wrist.
Pain in Brent's right shoulder.

Highlights:
Brent got dressed today on his own (with no help from anyone)!!!!!
We went to 5F and Brent walked 3x the length of the parallel bars - 12' in length for a total of 36'.
When Brent was in his chair he scooted his butt from the front of his chair to the back.
We went to 7-Eleven and got another slurpee and some candies.
We had shrimp scampi and linguine for supper.
We watched Survivor and Monsters vs Aliens tonight.
Thank you for your prayers.
Keep hoping. Keep loving. Keep praying.

    Hi Brent, Carolyn & Scot-
    We rejoice with you in all you are accomplishing!!! Way to go! We love the verse you chose to remind you that yes, sometimes things are difficult- but God will see you through the rough times and He will never leave you. He is your strength and your ever present help. Remain strong and courageous- it is paying off bigtime! We are so proud of you, Brent. And glad to hear your Dad is back, and that your Mom is feeling better. We hold you close in our prayers. Love- Daphne C. & Cathy G.
