Friday, June 3, 2005 GOOD NEWS!

Received an update, this morning, Ron Stewart, one of Jerry's good friends.Ron advised that Jerry is doing a little better. They had him sitting upyesterday, in the morning, for physical theraphy. He's still not able totalk yet, but can track with his eyes. The results of the scan revealedthat he still has some fluid around the surgical area, which may be thereason for the minor setbacks. Nevertheless, they had him sitting on theside of the bed watching Roz walk around the room to monitor how well hewas able to track her movements with his eyes. He did very well.Another good sign was, while sitting on the side of the bed, Jerry felthimself falling backward and was able to catch himself. This indicated agood sense of balance and mobility. These are excellent signs ofimprovement and goes to show that he's on the road to recovery, althoughit maybe a long and slow process.Will update further as more information becomes available.
