hi everyone, I am doing okay. I am back to my old rough schedule as far as my therapy goes. My therapist Justin was surprised at how well I could walk today, and my reward was he made me walk everywhere.
After lunch my mom gave me a haircut this got hair all over my shirt and pants, so she made me change. That only got hair on my clean shirt.
I met a guy named Red today. He was one of the men who rescued me off of the mountain. He was glad that I wasn't heavier, this made me chuckle.
Coach Marvel came in and watched me do a little PT, then we had a nice visit.
Guess I better go so I can see if it is time for supper.

Hey Jake! It sounds like you are doing great. We are so happy to hear it. I never knew you were such a card shark. I just bought two alpacas so things are getting busy around here as I try to get a fence built so that I can bring them home. We thank God and continue in prayer for your recovery.
Commodore - this is the Quartermaster. sounds like you are gaining your strength more and more daily. you should try and read some Louis L'Amour while you are still holed up in there, if you want to borrow some of the books from my pops, he has all of them. Im glad you are getting your daily fill of Little D's. Seems like everyone knows what we are all about, MMOM, Lil D's... we are the coolest kids we know! Well take care im prarying for you bro.

Jake,
So good to hear you are recovering well. I knew it would be hard to keep you down for long. I know you won't have a problem keeping focused and working hard. I hope to visit with you when we get off the "Island" next time. You are still in our prayers and thoughts constantly.

Hey jake,
It sounds like you are doing a lot better. I am sorry that I cant be there to see you all the time, but I will be heading back down this weekend to visit and pick up my cruiser. I am glad to hear that you are improving so fast. Before you know it you will be able to TRY to beat me at wrestling again. I love you and I am praying for you.

Hi Jake my name is Barb from MN my nephew Austin plays football with your brother in Wasilla. I am glad to hear that you are doing so good. I will continue my prayers for you and your family for your healing. Keep up the good work. What do you think of your prayer blanket? It came from St. Elizabeth Ann Seton's Youth group here in Hastings. God Bless you!!
Hello guys, this is Marci again. I'm on the phone with my mom and she has had trouble leaving a comment so I'm going to leave hers for her.

This reminded me of what Jake is going through and how he is recovering so quickly. His strength is inspiring.
Knowing this family from years past and the love that you have for one another and the faith you hold in God is refreshing and beautiful. Just to see how God is working in your lives through Jake is amazing.
Jake, ask your Grandma Pat and Grandpa Larry and your mom Ant who we are. We met you when you were a wee tyke but your mom I have known forever. We are so proud of you Jake. You are in our prayers.
