Kody Comes Home This FRIDAY!!!

I have been browsing through some pictures posted by the MDA on Facebook from camp and Kody looks to be having a blast.  Though I had my heart drop for a moment when I did receive a phone call at a little after 11am from none other then the MDA Camp.  She quickly put me at ease though because she was like "Hi this is Paula and THIS IS NOT AN EMERGENCY"  Thank god because lord knows we have had enough on our plate without anything added on.  Turns out he did give them a scare at camp today but it was remedied by the wheelchair technicians.  The sensitivity was at 90% from his chair and so when he went onto the docks (yes I said it was figured out on the docks) the chair was weaving and the back was fishtailing.  Now anyone who knows how the relationship between me and Kody works knows that I will ask him things such as "Why are you trying to scare the ladies?" and "Where you thinking about taking the chair for a swim?"  He'll get and understand the references and find it funny.  Do we have odd sense of humors?  Maybe but hell it's better to be able to joke about things rather then always being so damn serious.

If for some reason you can not access the pictures comment below and I will be working on getting them on my computer hard drive to put onto the blog.

((HUGS)) to Kody's followers ..... we appreciate you

CAMP IS TOMORROW

We have packed his bags, cut his hair, and now it's all waiting until he has to go in the morning.  Usually I just pack his bag and don't ask him about what's going in it.  Not this year.  He had to approve all the clothes and everything.  The plan is he will have his manual chair the first day and then (thanks to Paula) he will have his electric chair for Monday thru Friday.  I will post some pictures both here and on facebook from the camp.

Read Set Camp Time

Camp starts June 26 - July 1st.  Which means 6/25 is packing day for him. I am sure there are still a few little things we will need to be getting for him and they will get figured out.  Today we got the confirmation that his electric chair will be picked up from the house 6/27 and delivered back to the house 7/1.  He's excited about having it with him this year.  It will give him more freedom than he has had before while at camp.  Krash will be back on the scene.  Though I have tried to teach him to be safe while driving ... he is 15 and I won't be there so everyone better watch out for their toes and whatever else that will be in his way.  

He's next medical appointment is for the Cardiologist @ St Josephs Hospital in Tampa in July.  The date and time of the appointment slips my mind at the moment but that's what calendars are for.   Now to remember which calendar I wrote it in.
