I have good news. Justin will be going home(finally) right before Christmas. WOW. He has waiting for this day now for almost 15 months!! We want to Thank Shawn and his father-in-law ahead of time for remodeling the bathroom for him. That is a huge relief. A few other friends will be helping out with other things as well. So Thank You, you know who you are!! Our next big step is to hire someone to help be with him in the days while our mom is work. I am a little worried about this part. I just want someone good, trust worthy, and fun to be with him. Christmas this year will be wonderful for all of us.
Justin will be headed to Dixie Regional for therapy on Dec.3rd. He will stay there for about 3 weeks. They are going to help him on many different levels. He has waited for this time to come for months as well. I hope his time there will teach us all about how things will be at home. I am very worried for our mom. Justin requires a lot of time and attention. She has to work full-time, and has been told she needs to separate her personal life from her work. Easier said than done, she just worries so much about him and his quality of life.
Justin still has a good attitude about life. I have no idea how he does it. I struggle everyday. He is always on my mind. I just want him to live a good life. Some days it just about kills me, to watch him go through all of this. He is so strong. I love him to death for that, and how much he helps me!!
I think it is going to be very hard for him at home. He is so used to having people around him. So please, always feel free to stop by our moms house and say "HI". Everyone is more then welcome, or call, he loves talking on the phone. I will post his number when the time gets closer. Thanks again for all the Love & Support we all have received from all of you. ~A~

Yeah!!! We are going to have to get up there pretty soon!! We all miss him a lot. Justin keep your head up. Jaysa still prays for you in every prayer. and when we are at someone else's home she makes them pray for you too. Then she has to tell the story about you. She is getting really good at it. And if someone forgets to pray for you in a pray she makes them say it over just to bless you! She loves you and so do we!!
That is such great news! My kids are still busting at the seams to talk about "Justin Tuft" to anyone who will listen. When we were there this summer Justin mentioned Dixie Regional and it sounds like that is a place to have high hopes! I can't wait to get up there again... When work slows down we will have to make another Utah trek. Keep up the good work, and remember who won the arm wrestling match. It was me, wasn't it?
