Thursday, August 5th

Steve here again,

Well another pretty much average day, busy but average. It is nice to just be here and go through the routine with David. Just to be here feels like a privilege to me. The days here seem to be normal and uneventful but they are constantly full of little "tender" moments, as my dad would say. Seeing David and the other soldiers in physical therapy is always a proud/sobering experience to witness.

David found out today that he is getting his x-fit out of his hand tomorrow during his ear surgery. He will finally be free of all hardware and this should give him quite a bit more movement in his hand. Now he is just waiting for his wounds on his legs to heal up and then he will be fitted for his prosthetics!!! David couldn't be more excited for that.... Also during physical therapy today David was able to do some cardio, there is a machine that is like a bicycle for your arms which David got on for the first time. This excited him just for the thought of getting on the actual bike and getting some outdoor physical activity.

Other then that, there is not much else to talk about except maybe some good quesadillas at the chow hall today :) So with that I will say goodnight and go watch a movie with David.

Till Next Time,
Steve Lyon
