Thanks Mike! I have been relaying messages and photos from everyone to him and it has really helped when guys like you share life after a SCI. I just shared photos from a fellow with a SCI who drives his Donzi they have a portable Davit to get him in the boat at the boat ramp. Will said cool and it put a smile on his face.

God Bless

Hey Sam Will is still in our thoughts and prayers, hows he doing.

Thank you Thank you Thank you!!!

We are at Shepard center in Atlanta. He is getting stronger and lung function improves slowly. Trach should come out soon the other stuff bowel and bladder program are going very good and he is eating like a horse again. We feel blessed to have him talking again.

We are in OT PT and all sorts of thearpy to maintain his muscles until we see how he heals. We have no big movement yet but a few muscles in hsi left arm have a bit of contraction but not enough to it move yet. We are praying that it will move so we can operate his chair by hand control instead of the sip and puff control. It does not work well on teenagers full of spit!

He received shirts and DVDs from some fellow boaters and several folks are sending videos which always produce a big smile. I put a photo of him driving our old 28 full of girls in his room to keep him focused and motivated.

We have a Caring Bridge page which my 16 yo daughter keeps you up on his progress. Go there she is doing an awesome job.

Jim. Thanks. We had a positive medical consult in so much as there were no absolute negatives. Will moved his knees together and can contract a few muscles on his left arm. There is hope and time will tell. We are very blessed.

You guys have fun and be safe at the Shootout. We will be waiting on your videos hopefully they will stream it live.

Thanks we were looking forward to bringing the new 338 to the 25th anniversary Shootout. I did my first run in '88 or '89. Too many years to remember exactly but if you ran 100 you were top gun!.

Life throws you a curve ball sometimes. Will continues to improve. He move the thumb on his left hand yesterday. This is huge as it below the level of his injury. We appreciate all your prayers and support.

You guys have fun be safe and most importantly post pictures nd videos! We are living vicariously thru you this year!
