Sunday Morning

While Mark and Jori (they seem omnipresent) stay with Daniel, Chris, Caitlin and I are off to "the well"- our church- for the first time since the accident, it may be a few weeks, especially for Chris, before she gets the next opportunity. I see God showing Daniel what we have all learned these past two weeks, to celebrate what the Lord gives us today and then trust Him for what tomorrow may bring. He is very anxious to see improvement and at times wishes it could happen faster, pretty normal I'd say. For me, I am more than satisfied that he can give me a hug, but he does have some challenges ahead that God intends to use to increase his character, weather things improve quickly (which we think they are considering he was out for more than a week) or if they take longer. The P.T. had him going down the hall yesterday with no walker only holding onto one hand for balance, and that took place right after we had him in a chair for two hours visiting other parts of the hospital. He loves to talk at, with?-either one- people and Lord help us that has improved to to about 60% where he was! May God bless each one of you for caring enough to lift up our son in prayer, you all have experienced why God is worthy of all the glory and you have sustained us through the most difficult time in our life. Love you guys-The Maucks

You will never fully know what a blessing it was when you three walked into the ICU lounge area on Sat.I had not seen Daniel since the day he first came out of ICU and I was blown away by the improvment in such a short time!!
We are continuing our prayers for a speedy recovery for Daniel and for renewed strength for you Craig and Chris.Catlin,you have been a role model as a big sister.Keep up the good work.Joyce and Jesse
