This morning, Sean responded to a verbal command by slightly raising his thumb to give the “thumbs up” sign when prompted. This is a great sign.
Sean is not yet awake. But, I was able to speak to a technician today and he said that all is going well. He said “Everyday that goes by with nothing going wrong is a day closer to recovery”. He went on to say that, “Sean is a great candidate for rehab in this type of accident. He is young, he is strong like an ox (a skinny ox), and in time (whether that is a week or a year) he believes he will make it back”.
Sean is definitely getting better in small strides and appearing to slowly get accustomed to all his parts working again. It is a miracle in progress and sometimes miracles require patience and take time to completely play out. Keep the faith. This may take a while but he will get there.
Frank and Kathy are doing well. They are tired but are constantly energized by the many visits of friends and family. They are also really enjoying the daily feasts that are brought to them at the hospital and at their house. Please keep up the visits (and the food). They absolutely love seeing the outpouring of support and encourage you to put an entry in Sean’s Log Book when you are out there. But, Frank has reserved the right to limit the visits in to actually see Sean. Too many visitors in Sean’s room causes over stimulation which the docs say is not great.
TOMORROW (WEDNESDAY) – NO VISITS BEFORE 4PM PER FRANK AND KATHY’S REQUEST!!!
Nemazie Daily Shout Out
Goes to the Robbinsville School System for their support and concern for not only Sean, but Timmy as well. Everyone from the Superintendent to the Administrative Staff to the Teaching Staff to the Ravens Basketball Coaches have been right in this fight with the Nemazies from the day of the accident. Their immediate and ongoing support for Timmy has alleviated so much concern for Frank and Kathy and enabled them to stay focused on Sean’s recovery.
Remember, if you are interested in contributing to the Nemazie meal program, contact Jody Flynn at tomjodyf@msn.com. Timmy has requested more cookies.
