2011

In the past two weeks, we've seen some improvement! With help, Aron has been able to transfer objects from one hand to the other, interlace his fingers, remove his glasses, identify body parts, point his finger at our mom (he certainly knows who we are!), and remain in an unsupported sitting up position in bed (this was after being put in a sitting up position). Aron also seems more alert and focused. We are encouraged by these small victories. He still has yet to speak, and has trouble holding up his head - but is improving with the head control and continues to make unintelligable noises.

The EEG from December didn't indicate anything unexpected, and the same goes for the MRI. The medical professional who read the EEG did say that it is within the realm of possibility for someone with Aron's injuries to recover, it would just be VERY slow - which is what seems like is happening. We continue to remain hopeful.

On another note: my dad and I will be cruising Aron's Nova Wagon on March 5 at the CPP cruise.

  5. I'm sure 2011 holds many important leaps and bounds for Aron! Healing always takes time whether it's physically, mentally or emotionally. Our job is to continually trust in the Lord as He moves the mountains!

    Thanks for your posts, it's encouraging to see the Lord at work with Aron.
