Mi shebeirach - A prayer for healing (Hebrew)

Mi shebeirach Avoteinu m'kor ha-bracha L'imoteinu.
May the Source of Strength Who blessed the ones before us, help us find the courage to make our lives a blessing, and let us say, Amein.

Mi shebeirach imoteinu m'kor ha-bracha l'avoteinu.
Bless those in need of healing with refuah shleimah, the renewal of body, the renewal of spirit, and let us say, Amein.

Will got a surprise visitor on Saturday. His long-time friend Heff (not the famous Playboy Heff) came down from Maine to say hi and wish Will well. Will had some difficulty breathing today and was on a fair amount of pain medicine to help him through it all, so there was not much conversing. But Will sure did light up when he saw Heff and there was some ear to ear smiling going on. Will was particularly amused when I commented on some modifications we were planning for the wheel chair that would make back yard gaming something that he would have the edge over all others on. To me, that was a good sign, since Will seems to be coming to terms a little each day with his situation. Our main hope now is for the infection to go away so that he can focus on getting stonger. Then we can see more clearly what he will be able to do with minimal or no assistance and what we will need to compensate for with adaptations. There is a solution for all things. It just takes patience and creativity. Some days it feels like we took one step back instead of forward, but that is how it goes when recovering from such a tramatic injury. So be patient with us, and please dont get concerned if we dont always answer the phone or respond to emails on the same day. We are dealing with alot, coordinating things, seeking out information, and sometimes just needing our space to regroup ourselves. Keep the prayers coming, that is stronger than any medicine. With warmest wishes to all, Will's Dad.

    I was doing some research online and found some people with c4 breaks can regain mobility although in some cases it may be limited there have been people who after an extensive period of time 3 months plus have regained partial movement some to the extent of walking with assistance there are also programs that may be able to help you guys out no matter the extent of his abilities there are also a few blogs i found from people who are limited by their c4 injuries you might be able to get some help and enlightenment from these sights
