Its the start of another week

I can't believe that Marc has been here in re-hab for one full week already. Time is just flying (not that we aren't ready for all of us to get out of here) and Marc has made such amazing progress. He gets stronger every day, walking now completely by himself, still getting tired but able to go further distances and do so much more on his own. He is balancing himself really well today, he has to stand on a circular, puffy object and while balancing himself he has to throw, catch and bounce balls, he's also kicking a soccer ball back and forth with the therapists and us and he is walking up and down stairs. Last week he worked on adding, subtracting, multiplication and division and this week he's doing fractions. His boss Win also gave Marc some homework - Win drew a picture of a face frame for a cabinet and put in measurements and gave Marc the homework of figuring out how much materials he would need for the cabinet, plus additional things to work on. He also left a measuring tape and piece of wood to help figure out the measurements. Marc has already finished it so Win will have to come up with some more course Marc gets homework everyday from his speech language therapist.

We had a lot of visitors this weekend which really helps the time go by. Marc wants to thank his Grammie Stetson for her chocolate chip cookies, Becky for the banana bread and Aunt Lori Perron for the lasagna. They are all lots better tasting than the hospital food although the food here isn't as bad as some places.

Thanks again for everything. We'll write again soon. Love, Janice
