As of 12/28-12/30/07:
Mike has made an amazing amount of progress. His speech is much more clear, and he is better able to organize and express his thoughts. He is beginning to sense movement impulses in his right hand and foot, and his therapists are very happy with his progress. On, Sunday 12/30, I actually observed movement in both Mike's right hand & foot!!!
On Friday, 12/23, we had a family meeting with the whole care team. It was determined that Mike will have to go to a transitional facility for more care and therapy when he is released from this one, so the search for the best one is beginning. His Medicare will pay for this.
Mike and I are overwhelmed by the amazing amount of help we have received from friends and students.
Love and gratitude, Judith
