Pushing back

The past couple of days have flown by with more wins by Jeff. Amanda is calling me today to give more details, so look for another post later on Saturday. However, thought I would share this one story.

Friday morning, the nurses put Jeff in a brace that supported him to sit up on the edge of the bed. Then, they started pushing him to test his core abilities. Well, you can imagine what happened...

In his words, "I started pushing back. They didn't know who they were messing with. I'm from the "D"."

He pushed back a lot and he said it felt good.

Jeff continues to express how much the connection with all of you means to him, so don't stop your comments on the blog, your FaceBook posts and all your prayers and well wishes.
