Thomas continues to do well, thank God. Thank you for the prayers you have been lifting up for him and for us. We are truly humbled by the generosity of all of you!
Yesterday Thomas' buddies from the neighborhood stopped by. It was great to see him smiling and interacting. Today we're expecting more visitors, although everyone is being very mindful of Thomas' need to rest. Last night the scouts in the troop Skyped Thomas from their campout on the church grounds. This traditional sleepover happens every year the night before Scout Sunday. Today at the worship service (Jim attended) Thomas' progress was noted. Jim said there was a round of applause, which made him cry.
Tonight Jim and I must leave Thomas so that his normal routine can start bright and early on Monday. It will be difficult for us not to be here tonight, but we must follow the rules. They certainly know what they're doing at the Shepherd Center. Many miracles go on here all the time.
Thank you for your continued support and kindness. We will never be able to thank you enough.
To see him standing there smiling just made our day!
ReplyDeleteHopefully you'll both be able to get some rest tonight.
Thanks to Gary for a great picture! It's completely amazing to see him walking. He will continue to have some struggles, but right now we couldn't be happier. God is good! Life is good!
ReplyDeleteI am Druid Hills mom with a 13 year old named Thomas too who went skiing and snowboarding two weeks before your Thomas did. I have been following your story and praying for you all. So thankful to see how much progress he has made! I am so happy for you.
