We are still all seeing a lot of movement in Jess lately. He is trying to hold his head up and the speech therapist thought he almost said "mom". We stood him several times and he is probably 6'2" now. He only weighs about 130 lbs. We are going for a swallow evaluation at St. Luke's next Tuesday. I hope we can start giving him something besides ice chips. We are still waiting for word from the Primary Children's Hospital and are still considering the Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy. It was 5 months on the 17th of this month since the accident. A very long time...
Today is Jess' grandma's 85th birthday. When she blew out the candle on her cake she made a very important wish....one we all have been making every day. He held her hand and smiled with his eyes. We are still trying to find a way to communicate with Jess so we can ask him if he hurts or if he needs something.
I miss his voice, I miss his hugs, I miss his smile. Keep praying, please!
