April 9 1:50 pm

Just visited Neil. The nurse is able to manage the pain with medication. Neil wanted two people to pull him up so he could sort of sit up in bed. The first time he was able to sit up with this help for 1 minute and 10 seconds. Before the visit was over, Neil wanted to do this again. He was able to stay in this position 1 minute and 50 seconds. I think this is another baby set which will lead to a giant leap. Shhhh! Neil and his dad are back there together. They are going to watch the Master's Par 3 together. Neil and his dad have watched the Master's together for years. In fact, you might remember the first thing Neil asked about was Boo Weekly. Neil thought he had slept through the Master's. His dad will be able to stay back off and on during the tournament. Yea!!!!

Please pray for full recovery of Sue, Shannon and Ruth and our other friends here. We keep hearing good things from all.

Please know how much we appreciate your love and support.

I know that Mr. Kenneth is swelled with pride being able to watch golf with Baby. And who could blame him.......I'm proud for both of them. Tell Neil we love him and we love you guys too!! We are so excited to hear about the possible move to a room soon. Boy what a day that will be. Might even call for a little "tailgaiting" down in the parking lot. I'm thinking a little Jimmy Buffet and a grill may be in order. Surely the hospital would understand.(the thought makes me smile) See you guys soon.
