Today Aron had an appointment with the neurosurgeon and was transported via ambulance from San Pedro to Anaheim. Transport went smoothly, and he even took a bit of a nap during the ride.
I don't know where to start to report on the appointment other than it went as well as we could have hoped. Aron responded to the doctor with hand squeezes, opening his eyes on command, and moving his toes on command. He was responsive and the doctor saw it! My dad told me the doctor was smiling and clearly saw Aron's progress. So clearly, in fact, that she is requesting aggressive physical therapy and a crainoplasty.
While no one, including the neurosurgeon, can predict outcome, one thing is certain - he is improving. I am united with my family and Amy and her family, in the belief that our prayers are being answered.
The above picture is a Nova at a northern California Nova event - hundreds of stickers were handed out and placed on cars and get well posters were signed for Aron. There was a moment of silence and prayer as people who share Aron's passion petitioned God's love and healing for one of their own.
Praise God for answered prayers and His continued providence!
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing Candace! I couldn't read the last part out loud to Russ without getting totally choked up. What a blessing to know that so many people continue to pray for and remember Aron every day!
ReplyDeleteWe continue to have hope and know that God is a God of miracles. We pray for that miracle of total restoration.
Our hearts are with you all as you serve and care for Aron.
Much Love,
Russ, Kathy, Luke, Ella and Audra

Tears and joy!!! This is such an answer to very specific prayer! I know God loves Aron way more than any of us do and am so thankful for that. He is so good to continue to show us progress and healing, even though the healing is in His time and in His way. Praising God with you all.

I'm so glad Aron is improving. I think about him often. I sent a card a couple weeks ago with pics of the bluee 66 wagon in various places, hopefully I sent it to the right place.
