Welcome

I know you are on this site because you love Troy and care about him. The family wanted to create this to keep friends informed of his progress and share God's blessings, grace and mercy that He has shown us over the past weeks. We have come far, but the journey is still long. Please continue to keep us in your daily prayers. We thank and love you. I leave you with this - Troy's last words to Robin before the ventilator was put in, "Our God is an Awesome God".

Home

Troy was in better spirits today; much better than last week. He got to leave the hospital yesterday on a day pass and go home. He was sleeping on the couch when I checked on him around noon. He told me today that the day went really well, even better than he expected. He got to eat food that he liked. He got a haircut. Some friends came over. And the dogs were very excited to see him. He was in therapy when I arrived today, they were really working him hard. He is doing everything well. The struggle is endurance; he tires quickly. He is walking alone and will not be taking a walker home, as originally discussed. They were going to come in some time today and remove the feeding tube from his abdomen and the pick lines from his arm. They are expecting that he will be leaving tomorrow before noon! I can't believe this day is finally coming. His recovery since he has been in the rehab hospital has been amazing to watch. My job as blogger is almost over! I will keep you posted for a few weeks after he is home, because I some times wonder how people are doing after a serious illness. And the doctor says it will be 6 months to a year for a full recovery from this. But I probably will not post everyday. Thank you for all of your prayers. "Our God is an Awesome God"
