Evening update Friday

Ms Henri--I can only imagine what a child experiences seeing their dad in a place like this. Preston has not yet been here (for obvious reasons) and Justin has stated he wishes to wait for that moment. You, Johnny and Jill went through this at an inspiring time from what I gather about the history of this awesome place. And I can testify that it will make life changing moments happen. As Justin said today, everything happens for a reason and while your time was a tough time, it inspired a young child to make such a difference in others lives, and Jill continues that today.

For everyone wanting to do, I do apologize for the delay in posting this information:

Mailing to Justin is:

Justin L. Medley
C/O Shepherd Center
2020 Peachtree Road NW
Atlanta GA 30309

This is the address for anything you wish to go directly to Justin in his room at the inpatient center of Shepherd Rehab Building.

Robyn and Brooke made in it, even through major rain storms, and were able to visit with Justin for the last 45 minutes of tonight. He was still in good spirits and doing some serious Justin personality.

Dad and I both had our first experience of helping him to get a good cough out and I think we both are a bit too soft at it. The nurses are nice and say it will come with doing it more often so we'll have to take their word for it. He also informed us that he can hit his upper right thigh with his hand and it makes the bottom of his right foot tingle.

So very much is happening so very fast and we're just thankful and blessed for it all.

Please continue to pray because that is the main power that I believe is guiding this journey.

For my Delaware sis (MaMa Hen) and anyone else that thinks this is admirable, this isn't any more than what you all as mothers would do. I don't take compliments well so I will just say this, Thank you!! Each of you would be there, most likely in better ways than I have but be there!! Keep praying, love you all, sorry if I didn't address everyone!!

Love you guys!!!!

  1. Thank goodness Justin finally arrived at that great rehab center. We're so proud of his progress so far...he's already made great strides. We love ya'll and are praying for Justin's full recovery. Just knowing that he has such a positive attitude helps all of us back home. Keep the faith and thanks so much for this blog so that we can stay informed on a daily basis.
