On Saturday, June 28th, my brother-in-law Tory spent his last full day at TIRR Rehabilitation Center. It has been five weeks since he broke his neck. Tory has now been released from in-patient therapy and will begin out-patient therapy in two weeks. And the best news of all was Tory WALKED OUT OF THE REHAB CENTER!
Jalyn made this banner for her Daddy.
On Sunday, we continued celebrating the great news. Tory, Julie and the girls then left Monday evening for Many, LA, to visit Tory's family for a couple of weeks. After visiting family, the Gandys will return to our home in order for Tory to begin physical therapy.
Mammy and PawPaw came to help us with the kids. Thanks so much, Mom and Dad--we are so thankful for your help (especially Dad's purchases at the liquor store!)
This whole experience has been something beyond words. I am amazed at how many people have been touched by Tory's story---God has truly shown His mercy and compassion. Thanks to all family and friends who have been so supportive through this---you have touched our hearts.
As for my gang, we will be 'laying low' for a couple of weeks. It seems as if the whole month of June has been a complete blur, and we all need some rest.
Please continue to pray for Julie and Tory, and tell others of the great work that God has done in their lives. We will keep you updated on Tory's progress.
