Yardsale was a success!! A million thank you's to everyone that came out, helped out, donated and so much more. We raised $750.00 which covers our first month rent and accessories needed to make Kevin's transition to our new home go as smoothly as possible. I couldn't ask for more. I have to give a special thank you to my parents and my aunt Debby, who I know worked their tails off to get this organized in such a short amount of time. Their were several people who touched my heart that day.
While it was hard to get rid of some things like Maya's baby stuff, I'm glad it will be used by others who need it more than I do. Other things were NOT so hard to part with. Like Kevin's ridiciously massive collection of Leggo's. Seriously Kev? LOL Don't worry I had his permission to part with it :) And thank goodness because I've been trying to get rid of that box for at least the last 7 years now..haha
Sooo guess what.. I'm still packing. Big shocker, I know. But we are in the days of the final count down and I can see the end in sight. I get the key to our new place this Thursday. Our case manager will submit the request for Kevin's last few days at Bayfront tomorrow. He will request Kevin to be discharged on the 14th, but they may not approve that much more time since Kevin has progressed so well. That means there may be a slight chance Kevin could be home this weekend.
This will most likely be the last update I post on the blog until Kevin is discharged. I'm going thru a roller coaster of emotions about everything. I'm filled with excitement that after 4 months he will be home and scared to death at the same time. I'm extremely happy to close the chapter on this part of our lives and start a brand new one in our new home with our family together again. I will continue the blog as Kevin comes home but I wanted to Thank everyone that has followed us on our journey so far. I know there are people not only all over the country that follow this, but also across different parts of the world too. Thats just amazing to me. I can't thank you enough for all your prayers. There's not a doubt in my mind that we wouldn't be where we are today without them.
Love,
Kim

Kim, saw your blog today and talked to your Aunt Debby. I'm so glad that Kevin is finally coming home. It is a true miracle how things have come together for your family. Enjoy your new place. I'm sure once Kevin gets there, it will finally feel like "home".....
God Bless you all and take care!
