moving forward

This has been a good week for Tony and I. His sister Jenny came down and it was so nice to have her to ourselves for three and a half days! She cooked and cleaned and spent a lot of time with Tony allowing me to go to work and band practice and not have to worry to much about him. We have gone down to every other week for doctors visits which is fantastic and Tony is at physical therapy twice a week now working on getting some motion back in his wrist. There is not a ton of movement there and it has been a little frustrating for him, but we are getting there slowly but surely. After meeting with another fellow here in town who also lost his hand and part of his arm in an accident, Tony was inspired and I think he left that meeting with fresh hope in his soul which of course, makes me happy and makes my heart sing. This gentelman, Rich, showed him how he has his mountain bike set up and gave Tony all kinds of encouragement and hope that indeed he would be back doing everything he loves doing in just a few short years.
We are both very excited for the benefit party being held here in town at Ska Brewing on January 9th and it seems as though there may be quite a few folks showing up for it from out of town so that will be very exciting (even if it is a bit overwhelming!). My all ladies band Tricky Kitty is getting all geared up for this event as it will also be our first "concert" and we are just so excited for it to be for Tony. He is still the hottest guy in town that all the ladies love!!!
