As anyone who has travelled with John would know, the Minister's Cat is his favourite game for car trips. And, if you have ever played this game with him, you will know that his superior vocabulary makes him an expert. To play, one person starts by using a descriptive word to describe the 'minister's cat' beginning with a-z. This blog is dedicated to John, in order to update friends and family about his journey and provide areas of prayer.

Meeting, meetings, meetings
Today was a day filled with appointments for John. In the morning we met with the social worker assistant and filled out many forms for different applications. After lunch he saw the physio for an hour and then the occupational therapist for almost two hours. He was pretty tired by the time that was over. In the evening he went to his first BC Paraplegic Assn meeting. It went on for an hour and a half. When that was over Marsha and Andy came and visited and John was still ready to talk-I was amazed!

Dear chatty John:
ReplyDeleteWere you encouraged by the BC Paraplegic meeting?
As for the forms from the social worker...... be encouraged... they were likely on paper from Powell River. :)
Dale Carnegie said that "Most of the important things in the world have been accomplished by people who have kept on trying when there seemed to be no hope at all." I am amazed at the wonder of your progress. Hugs

I can't help but share a wonderful quote (brought on by Don and Alexa's comment):
ReplyDeletePractice hope. As hopefulness becomes a habit, you can achieve a permanently happy spirit.
John I think you have spent your life creating so may positive habits, the results of which are evident in your positive demanour and constant fight. We all admire you so much.
Juhli.
