December 28th, 2005

I was able to borrow a computer while Jess is in Speech Therapy so I thought I would say hello and wish everyone a Happy New Year. Jess and I had a lonely four days while we were off from therapy. My Uncle Homer and Aunt Lura were in Bakersfield from Stockton and invited us over for Xmas dinner. It was so nice to be with family. And, Xmas eve we visited a family that has a boy at the clinic similar to Jess. He is 18 too. They were so kind to have us over. So, no matter where you are there are wonderful people to help you when you are alone. I even met a very nice man on the plane and we "just happened" to meet two ladies (amongst 100 people) while we were waiting for our flight to Bakersfield who both had recovered from traumatic brain injuries. They gave me websites and support groups to contact. Now why did I come in contact with those three people???

Everyone at the clinic and the apartments are wonderful and so caring. There are so many tragedies that happen in this life. We are sure not alone. Jess is doing well. Of course, we want a big explosion of something grand but as we keep getting reminded....Jess is in the "slow to recover" category.

Our insurance has denied his coverage here so I am appealing. Again, I urge you to look at your policies and use our scenerio to see if you have the coverage you need. We trust everything will be just fine and we will be where we are suppose to be so not to worry. Again, Happy New Year and keep the prayers a comin'!! We are so grateful!
Love, Pam, Chris & Jess
