This weekend was an exciting and uplifting one for Sean and the Nemazie clan! Sean made some huge breakthroughs and has definitely begun his road back. Nancy and I were up at Kessler to visit Sean early Sunday morning. As many of you know, neither Sean nor Timmy nor Kathy for that matter, are “morning people”. Frank is the only one you can talk to in that family before noon. Anyhow, Sean may not have been happy to see us wander in his room at about 8am, but like the well mannered young man that he is, he stayed awake while we bugged him with questions and stories.
Sean is definitely out of the minimally conscious state and is fully conscious. As stated in the previous update, he is answering questions (when he chooses to) with hand signals. And he answers in a quick manner which has shown that he is processing information quickly. He is aware of his surroundings and has responded that he is aware that he was in an accident and that he knows where he is. His eyes will focus on you when you are speaking to him (most of the time).
BUT…..this is not to say that he is alert at all times and, he still remains unable to talk or show expression in his face. Sean remains in either his bed or his wheelchair as he does not have control of moving his legs or his arms (beyond hand signals) yet.
Sean still has a lot of work ahead of him and bunch of walls to break down……so keep the prayers and the support coming strong.
A special thank you to Sean’s Uncle Steve who returned to Florida on Sunday. It is no coincidence that Sean progressed so greatly during your stay here in NJ. Your positive spirit and energy came at just the right time. Enjoy the sunshine down there (for a little while) and come back soon!!!!
More to come! ….Steve
