Monday afternoon, March 22


Sean worked hard all week in therapy including some weekend sessions.  During one of his physical therapy sessions this week, Sean was lifted from his chair and, with allot of help from the staff at Kessler, took about 20 steps.  The therapists are pushing Sean hard to continually improve and he has responded.  Slowly but surely, he is regaining command of his body.

Sean continues to work at eating and putting on weight.  He has made a point to feed himself throughout his meals.  And, although it takes some time, he fights through and has been able to get more and more food down.  He has also begun using a straw for his drinks….something he was not able to do a week ago.

Many thanks to those of you who contributed to the “Sean Storybook” that was put together so creatively by Jodi Mindnich for the Nemazies.  The compilation of funny, heart warming stories about Sean, has brought Frank and Kathy allot laughs and smiles.  It has also served as another reminder as to how lucky we all are to have Sean in our lives and how important his recovery is to everybody.

Lets all hope for another good week and more good news to come.

  1. Welcome to Sagnasty as the locals like to call it!!! I was at Saginaw children's zoo today and thought of you. We'd love to get together. I'm always looking for something fun to do. We'd also love to have you to dinner. Do you need any stuff while your here? Get my number from Gloria. Oh in case you don't remember...I'm Gloria's sister. We met at the wedding last year.
