10 more days!

Had a good visit with Kev tonight. We watched the movie 2012. He's defiantly starting to get frustrated with some of his disabilities. Sometimes when he starts a sentence, he will have trouble finishing it. This really aggravates him because he knows what he wants to say, but sometimes the words just don't come out right. Speach therapy will help with this. I've seen him when they do their word play games and he has no trouble giving 1 or 2 word answers, but putting sentences together is where he is struggling right now. It's hard to see him get mad because I know his temper and have seen it several times already at the hospital. Sometimes he just wants to throw in the towel but I try to tell him how far he's come in 8 weeks and how blessed we are for him to even be here today. This seems to give him the encouragement to keep fighting. He knows what happened to him. If you ask him why he's in the hospital...he will tell you " I had a double aneurysm "

To help matters I found out today we were approved for another 10 days at the rehab center. This is great news because he really is improving everyday and as long as he continues to show progress our insurance company will continue to approve more time. I'm proud of him because it shows how hard he's working.
