Haven't added anything for awhile. Things are about the same for us and Sean. He engages in a conversation now, sometimes he even starts the conversation. He doesn't talk very much or very loud still. His long term memory has had some improvements. In March of this year (2015) we did a road trip back to California. We made special trips to the ocean, Disneyland, Wrightwood, Phelan and of course IN and OUT Burger, several times and picked up new t-shirts. For Sean seeing Annie & Jeff Steinmann and their family made his day. He considers them his best friends from high school. He actually remembered a lot. He doesn't remember or doesn't accept that he was tested by the VA and probably will never drive again. His cognitive and coordination are improved but still very challenging. He wants a job and a Hummer so he can date. He looks for a red Hummer everyday. He still has tremors and lacks strength in his hands. Writing is very challenging for him. Most days are great he is very easy to be with but like all of us he has those off days. I always wanted a set of twins and some days I have them. Paulette and her daughter live with us, Delaney is 8. One day Delaney and Sean were exchanging words like children do, I came around the corner and told them to knock it off and asked what was going on. Sean said "she started it" I almost lost it, I had to leave the room to laugh. I still smile when I recall this memory. I am still encouraging him to audit a college class. He will have to pay for the class but I am thinking more socialization. He would have to pay for the class because even though he is eligible for the GI bill when they tested him due to the cognitive issue a degree wouldn't be obtainable. They won't let him use his GI benefit to pay for classes. The biggest things we do are be respectful, loving and caring. I understand his frustrations but some of them I can't change for him. If anyone is in the area give us a call I can't guarantee he will remember you but he just might and would enjoy seeing you. He has a Facebook account if you want to try him there also. Thank you for your support, prayers and caring. God Bless Andrea
