Update JT finished up Therapy this week. He has worked very Hard. He not only does Therapy but he has Academics
/School Work Daily. His Teacher is
excellent and he Loves Class. He got to
go do some Rifle Shooting this week and loved it. He wants to come home and do some Deer
Hunting. He wanted to come home for the
South game tonight but we have decided to rest and try and come home next
weekend. Tennessee does play Florida
next week!! On the Tennessee Front one
of the new Patients here is Former Tennessee Vol Lee Otis Burton who was a
member of Johnny Majors first recruiting Class.
He played with Reggie White. He
was is so nice we had a group dinner with the patents on the 4th floor and JT
and I ate with him. JT has such an
Amazing attitude and takes time to visit and encourage other patients. The Peer
Counselors here use JT to help them. I
am so proud . Today we had a visit from
Ga. Tech QB Justin Thomas and RB Nathan Cottrell. Another JT wearing #5 and Cottrell played at
Knox West. They brought JT his own GT #5
Jersey. They had a nice visit and were
very encouraging. This was all set up by
an old ETSU fellow named Jay Shupe. The
Head Trainer at GT. He is from Wise Va.
And was at ETSU when Coach Sivert was there.
JT also had his picture made withDr. Elmers daughter we'll only one one
was a little shy. Both are so cute and I
was so impressed when this little girl met J.T.
she looked at him and told him he had a beautiful Smile. How Sweet!!!
We Love Dr.Elmers and her Family.
Heck she is Family now. It has
been a Blessed Week and we look forward to spending time with family and
resting. We have had some difficulties
getting his supplies but we switched to a company that is local. A company that is owned by a former E&H
graduate and Football player Charlie Cole.
Charlie and his Brother Jeremiah aha e went above and beyond what is
expected to take care of J.T. And we are
so Thankful. Pray for safe travels,
Patience, Understanding, Discipline, and
Healing. Gods Grace is Sufficient and we
are so Blessed. The Tragedy that
happened in the Boone Community is enough to remind us of that. Please continue to Pray for that Community. Hope everyone has a Blessed Weekend .
Remember to enjoy the the little things and take nothing for Granted. God Bless and #fightfor5
