Laboring on Labor Day

Dad worked hard this Labor Day. He has been having trouble with his ankle, so Jocelyn (his physical therapist) recommended he wear tennis shoes for therapy. Decked out in his new kicks he was able to walk from his room all of the way to the lobby. He then sat in his wheel chair a while (and admired Cayla's popsicle), before rolling himself back to his room. When he got close he stood back up and walked to bed. It was amazing.

Checking out his new shoes






























Next on the agenda - Eating a popsicle with Cayla. He LOVES his tiny glasses of Dr. Pepper, but as soon as Dr. Duke gives the okay he's ready for a popsicle!
