That is certainly encouraging. Praying he will continue to improve and that the pain lessens as his body repairs itself after such invasive surgery. God bless your mom (and you) too thru this trying time.

I realize I goofed, not explaining the report was sent by my niece to me from Montana.

And it is my brother in law that is in the hospital, the Mom being my sister, and not my Mom.

Anyway. here is the email Cathy sent me last night.

*******************************************************

Just wanted to send you a quick email to update you on dad's progress. They moved him over to Rehab yesterday and the Therapist says that he is doing really good. He has to wear what they call a Turtle Shell whenever he is up, not real comfortable but it gives a lot of support to his back. He is able to pretty much get out of bed by himself and back into bed also, just slow going of course. The therapist suggested that dad keep a journal so that when he didn't feel like he was making much progress or thought that the pain was bad he could look back in the journal and see how far he has come. They had him up and walking for 45 min. today with no sitting down, dad said he was pretty tired after that. Anyhow dad is coming along really well, the Lord has really Blessed him for sure. I am off to bed now got church in the morning.
Love,
Cathy

she also told me they fused 7 of his vertebrae together. But that he was up the next day. Which they usually do whenever possible anymore.

Really appreciate the prayers for him, and also for Nancy and all too.
