Jesse continues to make progress in his recovery. But, it is slow going. He has been walking for about two and a half weeks now after four months in bed or in a wheel chair. His left leg is pretty good now even though the PCL in that left knee is destroyed. We'll know more the next time he sees his orthopedic surgeon whether he will get a brace for that knee or not. His right heel still gets sore when he is on his feet lots, but Jesse is able to stand in church for singing praises to our Lord. His right leg still needs to regain the strength he lost from being off of it for so long. His left elbow is making very slow progress too. He is able to play his guitar better and better all the time and he wants to volunteer to play with the church worship team.

This Wednesday the 14th Jesse goes back to Idaho Elks Boise rehab for the first of his driving evaluations. If things go well he should be driving within a few weeks. That'll be really nice for all of us. Thank you Lord for bringing Jesse back to us!
