You're going to like this one: Physical Therapy got Bert up on his feet Friday - 2 times for a few seconds each time! That's the first time since August 31 he has stood and the work will continue now on strengthening his legs and heading toward mobility! His lungs are not yet healed- that work goes on as well - but his condition is so good the PT can go forward with his leg muscles! Talk about another early Christmas present! I borrowed from Faulkner the other day, telling Bert he will not only survive, he will prevail! And he is and I thank you for your continued prayers; while he's come a long way, he still has a long way ahead, but it's all forward and all up-slope! Thanks - Mary #prayforBert

Maybe it seems all "up slope" but you will have palteau days to rest and just enjoy. Laugh more and visit more. I really believe everything is mending and "rewiring" and the goal will shine through the darker days. Thanks for posting.
What a Beautiful gift for you and Bert. The season of all good things still to come. God continue to Bless you Both.
This is just wonderful news. I'm so hoping Bert continues to get better. I think he has moved from baby steps to toddler steps now. Mary, you are a trooper, and your love, support, and encouragement has to mean everything to Bert. Take care of yourself, and be sure to tell Bert we are all pulling and praying for him. Keep the updates comig.
