This is just a turning of the page, into another chapter, not the end of the book. Let's not forget that. With Al coming home, the next chapter begins. Now, he has come a long way, however, now is the time he needs all of us more than ever.
While visiting with him last night, he was talking about coming home. I told him, "well you know Al, there will be rules." He wrinkled up his face and said, "well I guess that is the biker in me, no liking rules." He seems to be good about wearing his helmet, but I have afeeling he will still need to be reminded of the boundries. The boundries are for his benefit, and we need to remember that when we spend time with him.
His spirits are very high right now, and is back to joking around. Last night he explained that the piece of his skull that was removed is in a freezer. So, when they put it back in, he would really have "brain freeze." There is the Al we all remember. He also wants to make sure the piece gets put back in time so he can heal and ride next year. Yes, he does want to ride again! I would have expected nothing less from him.
For the record, I asked him what he remebers about the accident. He remembers nothin about what happened. We need to understand this is a common thing. I beleive it is our body's way of protecting us from "re-living" the accident. It is a good thing.
I gave Al the notes from my Friday night sermon at Kingdom Roadhouse. He read the first two lines and laughed. His recovery has amazed so many. This is a very uncommon timeline for this type of head injury. Usually, it could be months, and even years before events we would see this kind of progress. This is an absolute testimony to God's miraculous healing power.
Stay tuned.....God has much more in store for us!
