I am sorry I have not updated the website for a few days. Chris and I have been a little unorganized and overwhelmed trying to make sure Jess gets all of the care he needs. I think I will just update on Monday, Wednesday and Friday from now on. I hope that is ok with everyone.
I have been asked to let everyone know what you might see if you were walking in our footsteps. Jess looks just like Jess when he is sleeping. When he is awake his eyes are the same beautiful blue eyes we all know and love. Kelsey says he looks brighter and better every time she visits. Sometimes he is right with us and sometimes he is away somewhere. Talking to God...I hope. Jess is not awake enough to hold his head up, sit or stand alone, he cannot move his arms and legs when he wants, he needs to be fed every 3 hours, turned every 2 hours...he basically needs everything done for him that we all do and take for granted. I guess my optimistic messages have made some believe he should be out playing basketball any day.
We have all the hope in the world that Jess will come out of this. No one can give us any prognosis of when that will be except that it will take a long time. That's ok...we have a long time. I received a card from a good friend the other day that said...Life takes some crazy directions sometimes, causing changes we can't hope to anticipate. Even though we try to cope as best we can, some things are beyond our control...we can only accept them and try to move forward, as best we can.
We are moving forward "as best we can" and we know that someday Jess will be back out on his basketball court. We hope you have a great holiday and please know how much we appreciate all you do on our behalf. Love, Chris, Pam & Jess
