Update From Pam

Thank all of you who are our family and friends for letting me post as I feel needed. Some post may appear factual, some sad, some happy, maybe even some poetic. If possible, it will be some sort of record to leave Clint and Kristi. I'll will always write from my heart.

Having said that, yesterday was good and sad actually. Keith was able to go to the school for an hour (3 days now) after having a lengthy speech therapy session, followed by a chiropractic visit. After that we did something I never imagined doing. We went to a medical supply store and picked up a 4-pronged cane and a roller-walker for Keith. While we are extremely grateful that insurance covered it, there was feeling in me watching him roll it out of the store that is hard to explain. He's a trooper. He hasn't used them yet, but is getting in need of them. He's a little stubborn in that way which is probably why he is doing better than most of MSA patients.

Also,we were able to do a short walk on the trail, in the rain. The other day when he walk at the High School track some football players offered to help him. It embarrassed him but he understood their intent. . We took pepper and for some reason, Keith didn't want to hold her leash. We had a good laugh at that!

    This whole experience is such a roller coaster of emotions.
