fantastic

My husband and I took my brother out for breakfast this Saturday and when we asked him how he was doing, he said " fantastic".  This is a step up from "lovely", which is what he says when everything is ok.  In fact, I don't think I have ever heard him say this before.  When we asked him why, he said "because everything is slipping into place", and then he mentioned that he had just finished physical therapy.

I am figuring that the physical therapy has not only helped him physically but mentally as well.  It's another one to two individuals who are giving him energy and probably positive reinforcement.

This makes me a bit sad that he can't have physical therapy all the time.  (Actually, I wouldn't mind physical therapy once a week, too!).  He is certainly stronger when he gets it.

I find this even more amazing considering he got of intensive care two weeks ago.
