It has been a couple of great days for Tyler! The Christmas spirit is definitely in the air
and Tyler is excited to attend his upcoming benefit concert this Monday. I don’t know all the performers, but I know
at least one has traveled from Missouri just to perform at this concert. It is going to be amazing! We are so deeply
grateful for all the good people that have played a part in this benefit
concert. We hope to see you there!
Natalie, my boys and I took Tyler to the mall
yesterday. The BYU baseball coach gave
him a very nice lined sweat uniform. We
helped Tyler change into that to help keep him warm on the way over. Besides that, he just looked handsome in
it! The nurse and techs gave him his
medication to take while gone, refilled his insulin, helped us get him in the
wheelchair and we were off! We pushed
him from the rehabilitation center to the mall along the sidewalks. We went
from one end of the mall to the other looking for a Christmas tree. In the
end, it was Tyler and Natalie that found one by Macey’s. It was a fun evening window shopping with
Tyler and having ice cream.
Kyle from Tyler’s single ward stayed the night. Tyler enjoyed his company so much – thanks Kyle!
This week physical therapists pitched in and got him a very
soft minky blanket that he loves.
He
also got his first ride in a motorized wheelchair today. Grandma said he went around the facility
eight times and had a huge smile on his face each time he passed. One step closer to independence.
Lastly, Tyler’s cousin David and Heather came
to visit. They both just arrived in town
for their upcoming wedding. What a
wonderful time of year as families come together to celebrate the birth of our
Savior.
