I just want to thank everyone for their continued support and prayers. Mike continues to do well in New Orleans. Right now, I feel that if I were asked where our focus of prayer needs to be I would say for Mike to improve with his tracking. This seems to fluctuate from day to day and the therapist would like it to be more consistent.
Mike, myself, and the kids have been blessed with such wonderful friends and family. Thank you so much for continue to make the long drives to New Orleans Kelly, Kevin, Robin, Kami, Lori, as well as Mike's sisters. A special thanks to Mike's father who along with myself refuse to give up and my parents who continue to make the trips to New Orleans with me and the kids every time I say lets go as I know it is hard with three kids who never seem to get tired.
Mike continues to be strong and healthy. He continues to go through therapy six days a week. One of the neatest things happened just last Monday. Mike's dad and sisters were visiting and talking about his hair and Mike reached up and touched his hair.... things like this continue to give each of us hope and remind us that God continues to be in control. Please remember to pray for tracking for Mike.
