J.T. Keeps improving !!!


Update.    J.T. Keeps improving !!!  Coach Baugh spent the night and took excellent care of J.T.  They rested well and got up ate some breakfast and began a big day of therapy.  J.T.  Worked on the skills of eating and drinking by himself turning on the water and brushing his own teeth.   He also played some Yahtzee.  His appetite continues to grow.  They have put him on a calorie count to see how much he is taking in in hopes of taking the feeding tube out.  He ate a big dinner.  He even ate some Sour Patch kids .  This was practice for the group outing scheduled for tomorrow in which they are going to the movies.  He is determined to have Candy at the movies.  They have also scheduled a precautionary endoscopy to check and make sure everything looks good .  The fact that he is eating more and swallowing better leads us to believe things are fine.  He got on the table and worked on sitting up and rolling over.  He and Coach went out side in an unauthorized move.  Those two are Rebels!!!      We feel so Blessed to have Coach Baugh in our lives.  He truly Loves J.T.  J.T.'s temperature continues to fluctuate .  His voice is getting better and better.  There has been a few singing moments.  His Sister made it back after a short getaway with friends to see Bieber.  We all missed her rowdiness.   With Cody here we were able to rest ,  Get some apartment cleaning done, dishes done, and some Laundry.  We got a surprise visit from on of our old neighbors and friends Cindy Winstead Gilliam and her Mother Marylin Winstead.  They brought J.T.  A Football signed by the SF 49ERS  that Daniel Kilgore had sent along with some of Daniel's Game used Gloves.  #fightfor5. www.thefightfor5.com
