All I Want for Christmas

All I want for Christmas is Kinney at home.

He is progressing. He has a lot more strength in his arms now and can use the wheel chair sparingly.

He is still very weak, but can also use a walker although his mid-section still has no feeling.

He is "tingly" in his hands and arms as well as his feet and legs.
The therapists and doctors say that Guillian-Barre patients have setbacks if they work too hard and Kinney has got to learn to take it easy or he will have to take 2 steps back in his progress.

Many have asked if there is anything they can do besides pray. If you have it on your heart to do so, a friend set up an account for our medical expenses at the local bank in Rocksprings. I'm sorry I don't have more info about it, but I'll get the details from him and let you know.

You may also wish to send him card or letter. He is in Sid Peterson Hospital Room 708A Kerrville, TX (not sure of the zip) or to our home PO Box 785 Rocksprings, TX 78880.

Love and belssings to you all
Mrs. Preacherman

  5. Like Lisa, I too am not fortunate to know y'all personally, however 'know' and appreciate Kinney very much for his blog words.

    Your family has been in my prayers since first finding out about his illness and will add your Christmas at home desire to those prayers. May that goal be God's will too!!

    Again, I'm in Abilene - if there's anything I can do from here, please do let me know!!

    In His love, grace and mercy
