Kevin had a very full weekend!
On Friday, he had a fever from his COVID vaccine but it wore off overnight and he woke up feeling good the next day.
He felt so good on Saturday, in fact, that he spent TWELVE hours out of bed and in his power chair. This is by far the longest he has been out of bed and in the chair. One of his big goals while at Craig is to be able to spend all day in the chair so this was a great mark of progress.
On Saturday night, Kev got a visit from his friends Christian and Molly. It was the first time we could get his friends into Craig on the weekend and it greatly lifted his spirits. He said they all talked, had a great dinner and watched UFC together.
Kevin loves dogs and we have been talking about getting him a service dog in the future. I have been reaching out to various organizations to try to get a handle on how it works and who to connect with. If you know me, you won’t be surprised that this is something I’m excited to handle. If anyone has any information or advice in this realm we would greatly appreciate it!
Dad flew in and has been around this weekend. Him and Kevin have been watching plenty of tennis and soccer and are looking forward to the Suns game tonight.
As always, thank you all for your support!
Love,
Katie and the Cavanaugh
Love this. Dogs make everything better ❤️
