Just Can't Stop These Dancin' Feet

Fellow IMC Rehab patient, Sydney Heyrend, choreographed a dance routine to show off newly re-learned motor skills.  The performance, yesterday afternoon, played to a standing-room-only crowd of 12th floor patients and staff.  I think Christian's version of "The Robot" is especially entertaining.  Enjoy.  (NOTE: the professional videographer got so excited he turned the camera for part of this clip; Do Not Adjust Your TV!)

  5. Wow! Great dancing Christian and Sydney. It is so comforting to our family to know that Denine, Tim, Sydney, and all the other Cox/Heyrends have the Deputy family right by their sides through all of this. You are such an amazing family and I know they feel of your strength. Thank you. Keep you the amazing work Christian!

  7. One man's challenges are the world's inspiration.

    It is so fun to not just see your improvement, but your attitude. Lots of people would be white-knuckling it through this experience. You are smiling -- and putting a smile on other's faces in the process.

    I'm so happy for your progress.

  8. It is truely rewarding to see that Nurse Ratched's little pep-talk motivated Christian. I can see that he has no desire to meet her wrath! (or her thermometer)
