Myles Update 1/18/14

Dinner and a Movie, Beskind style!  Tonight the kids and I picked up a movie and dinner, and had a nice evening with Myles watching Despicable Me 2.  He watched some, dozed some, and drank the entire Vanilla Malt we brought him from Zesto (one of his favorites).  Since he hasn't been eating more than half of his meals in a few days, it was great to see him finish the malt.  We may start making a Zesto's run every day!

We're getting a lot of input from the various doctors, physical therapists, and others involved in Myles's care.  Myles is giving a lot of thought to where he wants to go from here and the kids and I are behind him, no matter what he decides.

Myles was getting a bit stir crazy this morning and really needed a change of scenery.   The nurses helped Myles into a wheelchair, we covered him in blankets (no jacket at the hospital), and took him outside.  Although it was brief, it was nice to get out into the sunshine.


Tomorrow, we'll bring his coat and take another walk.  As always, thanks for your emails, posts, love and support!

  1. I know those picnic tables well! The hospital cafeteria food is so much cheaper than the food at Cox Hall. YAY Myles!

    As you said, you are a very lucky guy. Reading all the comments your friends and family wrote, I can tell how much they love you.
    I am very confident that as more pray to God the better results you have and specially if the prayers come from all around the world God will say "This guy is very important, let´s pay more attention on him".
    I will do my part from Brazil, specially for your fast recovery, more milk shakes and a great trip with your family after leaving the hospital.

    Best wishes from your friend Andrés.
