Saturday Update

Saturday was a good day.  It was game day for the Boise State Broncos, a day that Mom and Glenn always look forward to.  They spent the morning getting predictions for the score from those that came to his room, and they were both anticipating the game.  Glenn (the die-hard fan that he is) even had his BSU hat with him to help cheer on his team.  It's also no surprise that he ended up the winner with the closest guess for the final score- the man knows his Bronco football!

Glenn was able to stand for five minutes with the help of his physical therapists.  While he was standing, his doctor came in to check on him and was very pleased with Glenn's progress.  After making several assessments, he felt certain that Glenn will make a full recovery from the paralysis on his left side. (Awesome news!)  Also, Glenn was able to feel touch on his left hand and he can distinguish between when his thumb and his pinkie are being touched.  Lots of great progress today!

Unfortunately, he had a lot of nausea and hiccups throughout the day, which is not a good combination.  He still isn't ready for visitors, but is loving the comments, emails, and Facebook posts, so please keep them coming. We're all so overwhelmed by all of the love and support that we all have received and are so thankful to know such wonderful people!
