#59 Update December 17th

Steady process is still happening. Yesterday we met with 2 new doctors, the Rehabilitation Director for Memorial South and the Neurologist working with brain injured patients in
Memorial's Rehab clinic for a updated evaluation. They are trying some new medications, to help stimulate Sean's brain more & differently. We are checking out more options for the next step in physical therapy development. Sean is still on a marathon and not a sprint, hang in there. Sean has progressed a lot farther than the doctors were willing to give him credit for from the very beginning. He actually worked with the computer last night and today for the first time in a long time. This is wonderful as he was too frustrated before now. He still has short term and some long term memory challenges but surprises us all the time. He loved seeing all the cousins and Great Aunts and Uncles at Thanksgiving so much so he didn't want to leave early. We will spend Christmas with everyone and even more cousins on the Sunday after Christmas which will be fun and he is looking forward to seeing everyone again. Before we went to Denver I had asked him if he was afraid to see everyone and he said "No". A few minutes passed and he said "Should I be?" I told him no, I just wanted him to feel comfortable that we were going. We are still blessed and feel very thankful for each and every day as well as the progress he has made. As always thank you for your prayers and warm thoughts we can still feel them and pray for you all as well. We need to take the family photograph and then we'll send out our Christmas cards. Until then Merry Christmas everyone and a Blessed New Year.
