Wesley had his final evaluation yesterday. He is still 25% minimum dependent on comprehension, orientation, and communication, but he scored Supervision only on everything else. His short term memory is still impaired to a great extent, but he is improving every day. Today will be his last day of therapy here at Methodist, and he will be released tomorrow. He will continue outpatient therapy at home in Ocean Springs at Encore. He will still require 24 hour supervision for the time being. As far as I am concerned, Wesley is a walking, talking miracle. When he arrived here, he could do neither. This place is amazing, and after only 4 weeks to see him make this kind of progress, I just know that Wesley will be 100% by this time next year. He is still having some issues with his left arm, but it's nothing that cannot be fixed. He will require some surgery to the right shoulder where it was seperated. As soon as Wes is up to it, we will be making our rounds to places such as Ocean Springs Hospital, etc... so that you can all see him for yourself. He is very eager to meet all of the people who played such an important role in his recovery. All of your prayers alone, I believe is what helped to get him to this point. I will continue to keep you all informed on his progress and recovery back at home. Thank you all once again, and hope to see you soon. Jennie and Wes!!
