Thursday

Improvement is seen. Mel had a slight movement in his left shoulder on Wednesday. Therapy is very hard and he is extremely tired. He listened to the Hope College game on the radio last night and when asked this morning he knew that Hope won. Today, after a shower and therapy he is just exhausted. Please pray for strength each day for him, for continued improvement in his left side, and for a continued positive attitude for recovery. We ask at this time that he has no visitors. When there is too much activity and talking in his room it makes him more tired. He keeps saying that he is a fighter and that he believes in Miracles. Thanks again for all your prayers on his and the families behalf.
