Photo Update

Kai asked me to post these photos that were taken of Caleb yesterday (July19th).

"our beautiful boy giving the thumbs up. (shortly after he threw up the rage sign and had a mock fist fight with a nurse he wasn't getting along with)"

He looks amazingly good for all he has been through. It is only 16 days since the accident and he has been through two big surgeries. He is doing very well indeed. Keep up the good work Mum and thanks for sharing the pictures I am sure it will help those who haven't seen him yet feel reassured. They will also be good for him to look back on when he is further along in his recovery. He is going to get a lot better soon but he still may get frustrated with his progress. These early photos will help him remember his starting point and how far he has come.

I got goosebumps looking at these pictures - I am so happy to see real photographic proof that Caleb is recovering! I barely know him besides a couple hellos here and there, but have been rooting for him and donating to the cause with both money and prayers.

Sharyn, if you are relaying comments from this blog to Caleb, please let him know that we are all in it for the long haul with him. He's got a lot of "new" friends out there who can't wait to meet him in person. There are easier ways to become a superstar, but since he was forced into this route to stardom, he might as well try and enjoy it! From what I've seen in these comments, his fan club extends around the country (maybe world!).

There isn't a day that goes by that I don't think about Caleb, Sharyn, Jan, Kai and Max. I try to put myself in those shoes and it is very hard to imagine, but to know that there is such a supportive community back at home must help so much. It is great to see the progress he is making. Thank you for your updates and your sense of humor during this, again I cannot imagine!! From reading all of this I can see why you have so many people pulling for you!!
Can't make the prayer on Tues eve but I will be sending positive thoughts your way!
Fleetians are GREAT!!!!!
