Update let me start by saying I am sorry it's taken so
long to Update. I know many want to keep
up with J.T. . My last actual update was
not super positive . In the interim I have gotten many encouraging texts and
calls. I have spent the last week moving. It was a Giant task to say the least. I
loaded the van one night until around 4AM.
Spent the next couple of days moving in. Luckily Dr. Calendine came down
and spent the week visiting with J.T , His Doctors and Therapists. He has been so helpful through this whole
process. We probably wouldn't have
gotten to The Shepherd Center without him.
We for sure wouldn't have gotten here so soon. He is more than J.T's Doctor he is our
Friend. We are very Thankful for
him. Danny and Tommy came down for a Surprise
visit. They got to spend the day
watching J.T. go through therapy. Tecky
Hicks and Chris Jones also came by for a great visit. They had an Awesome
Prayer with J.T.. All these visitors
allowed me to do some unpacking and cleaning up so I could finish the move
. I was trying to get our new apartment
set up for when The rest of the family would arrive. Peyton moved in at Furman and then came to
help me out. J.T. worked very hard in therapy all week. I finished up all of my training and did it with
no problems. Peyton, J.T. and I went to
the movies Friday and watched Suicide Squad.
While Christie and Jacob where traveling down. They arrived at 9PM
Friday. We got up as a family and went
to Waffle House( Scattered Smothered and Covered). . J.T.
Had therapy and then we spent a couple of hours at our new
apartment. So much safer, more room and
more accessible for J.T.. We have officially
exited the Den of Inequity that was our old apartment. We loaded up and went to watch the Braves and
Nationals play at Turner Field. Had all sorts of ballgame food from hotdogs,
Chili cheese fries and Dippin dots. We ran into Brian Jordan who was very
nice. We also ran into Austin Price and
his family. We attended Church Sunday and had a quick good bye . The Good Byes are so hard every time . Peyton headed back to Furman and Christie and
Jake headed home. A huge Storm hit just
as they where leaving. Peyton ended up
Hydroplaning on I-85 doing a 180 degree turn on a 6 lane road. Somehow by the
Grave of God she was safe. It is so hard
being apart and it's even harder trying to protect everyone. Please continue to Pray for our family this
next year is going to contain so many challenges . I have many praises for this week as
well. The Church Service we attended was
so uplifting . We got to spend quality
time together as a family, our Apartment
is so much better, and most of all J.T. Had some good progress that gives us so much
hope. The news of the White Out and the
Coverage was Big. We will be traveling
home and spending the weekend We will be returning to Atlanta for more
extensive rehab. Pray for Strength,
Understanding, Courage, Protection and Progress. Thank you all. Please Continue to visit his website at www.thefightfor5.com. #fightfor5.
