Easier weekend March 30th

Good morning.... What a beautiful day

I continue to write my blog so that means we are still here at the Brigham and we will be celebrating our Easter on the 10th floor.

We have had a busy morning. Started out with breakfast and then a shower and shave,  Want to look handsome for Jill and Donna's arrival later this morning.  

I find Greg is remembering things better than only a few short days ago, although this morning he argued with me( nothing unusual about that).  He said Donna was going to be really mad at him because he was in  a plane crash in Brazil last night, which is where the scars on his head came from.
This guy has been all over the world the past week or so. He told me that yesterday he was in Portugal with his buddy Ben and an old friend from prep school, Mike Weed.  He has actually been in Portugal with Ben.

As Donna and I were driving home last night, recognizing the sutle improvements that Greg is making, we not only admitted to just what a fearful situation we had been in, but also how fortunate we are now. We have both heard stories from other people.  People who know other people....you know how that goes.  As we celebrate Easter, we realize just what a miracle it is that Greg is so far along, and that the long term outlook is so promising

Although his progress over the past couple of weeks is truly miraculous, we cannot set ourselves up for a major disappointment and fail to expect and accept the anticipated ups and downs ahead on his road to health.

Glad to get my time with Greg this  morning, and can't wait to pick up Jake and Gavin to go to Maggie's "rainbow unicorn" birthday party later today.

Have a great day and wonderful Easter weekend.

Mike
