****WCGreen Update -- Thursday January 23, 2014****

[CaliforniaPeggy]

A Christopher Green update from his wife Laurie:


Last night, Chris was smiling and bobbing his head to music, causing the nursing staff to crack up. Knowing Chris, he kept doing it since he saw people laughing. Medically, he is making baby steps in the right direction.


He is a talented musician in his own right, so this is a significant step!

And you feel in your heart, it grows and grows
It came from the backstreet Rock and Roll
And the healing has begun..."

28. Holy Crap!

Not something I'd ever want to have, I can tell ya.

[MADem]

34. The progress is slow but steady. I agree, it's something I wouldn't want either.

I think he's been very brave, I'd surely be a complete wreck. Makes one appreciate how fragile our situations are. This could be any one of us.

California Peggy has been wonderful to provide us with regular updates.
