(This was the best smile picture we could get for you...but we'll keep trying!)Gus is smiling more and more now, at least a few times a day. Last Sunday he started to laugh and that's getting more and more frequent as well. Thank you so much for praying for us. It is so encouraging to see him enjoy playing with us.
His medications are being reduced some more since he is doing so well on less and less. He is also swallowing a little bit faster and he acts like he wants the food when he smells it cooking and we are at the table eating a meal.
His vision seems to be improving but I'll be contacting an organization here that can help us figure out what he can see (shadows, black-white, double vision, etc).
He is exhausting as he 'wakes up' (mentally and physically) so Deborah, Matt, and I often take turns playing with him, stretching him, and stimulating him with different things. Please pray that his brain continues to heal and that God graciously shows us the next step and how to keep going.
gratefully, esther
Thanks for putting up the picture. He is looking good. Glad to hear things are still improving. Can't wait to see you all this weekend. David and Cathy
