Working hard to walk at graduation! Everyday is a grind. The doctors said I would never move anything again, only God knows.

A few weeks ago, I started using the Arc Ex by Onward during occupational therapy, and I’ll be doing sessions 2–3 times a week for the next 12 weeks.

This is the first FDA, approved TSS spinal cord stimulator, and I’m really encouraged by the potential it has. I’ve included a photo of it set up on my neck, along with a comparison of my handwriting from day one versus a few sessions in, already seeing some changes!

The Arc Ex is designed for people with quadriplegia to help improve upper body strength and mobility, and I’m excited to be on this journey. If all goes well, I’m hopeful about the possibility of using one at home in the future.

Thank you all for the continued support and prayers, it truly means a lot.

On my cruise I got to walk in the sand again. My feet had to get used to it at first. It took awhile I had to sit and expose them to the sand for about a hour otherwise my whole body would spasm and not allow me to walk. With help I was able to make it to the water and enjoy the day ❤️❤️❤️God is good! This was not planned but in the end of the video the church we visited is in the background you can see the cross!

Jackson working on his dance moves for the cruise today! We are calling this the Grandpa Dance! They say cruises are the most accessible way to travel so we will find out. ❤️❤️ This week before the cruise Jackson had an appointment for Botox in his legs for muscle tone.

This weekend had a little bit of everything.

Friday, Jackson went to the doctor for his toe after a strong spasm caused him to stub his big toe (which was already not in great shape from losing the nail before).

We headed to Eden Prairie after that. Saturday was spent at the mall, lunch at Crave, and watching Raegan dance for the All-State AAA Jazz Team ❤️. Drove home in a snowstorm and grabbed Kwik Trip for dinner.

Sunday was a slower day, Jackson made it to the YMCA for a few laps around the track with his walker.

Monday brought great news from his urodynamic study and ultrasound. His bladder and kidneys look really good, no high pressures, and things are continuing to improve 🙌

Tuesday was school, and today at Courage Kenny, Physical Therapy Jackson crushed 4 sets of stairs, with help of his PT and a gait belt 💪

We’ve been super busy lately!

Last weekend we had a great time at the Minnesota Timberwolves game. Thank you to the Timberwolves for inviting Jackson! One of his followers helped make it happen by getting us tickets through someone who works there.

We got home just in time to finish watching the Minnesota high school hockey state tournament games.

Jackson was at the doctor today after stubbing his toe pretty badly, his toenail is barely hanging on. Poor guy!

We also had a construction meeting this week to plan for installing his lift so he’ll be able to go downstairs to his regular room again, along with a remodel for a handicap accessible bathroom.

Thank you all for the continued prayers and support.

It’s been a super busy week for us! Yesterday after physical therapy, Jackson and I went to the Mall of America and met up with his friend Brandon and his wonderful family.

Jackson and Brandon became friends at Shepherd Center after both sustaining spinal cord injuries. Brandon was actually the first kid Jackson met there. He would come visit Jackson when he was stuck in bed on the ventilator, which meant so much during those early days.

When we first met Brandon, he had a big halo on his head. Seeing both of these boys now and how far they’ve come is truly incredible. Their strength, and resilience are something special. 🙏❤️

Brandon had Dream on 3 bring him to Minnesota for the Timberwolves game and some fun. Shaq even showed up at Brandon’s house❤️

Jackson is starting to talk to churches/youth groups that have supported him and prayed for him near our home. If you are interested email him at 97sjourney@gmail.com

I will be calling and emailing some of the churches I could find the cards from. We have 4 boxes of cards and I don’t want to miss any ❤️🙏❤️🙏 Which I’m sure I will, so give us a message.
