Update 12/6/2011

Sorry all,

There were no updates since dad prepared and ran in the White Rock Marathon on Sunday 12/4. It was my first Half Marathon.
(See www.RefereeDad.com or RefereeDad on FaceBook for more)

We have much progress to tell about Isaac. The monthly update meeting progressed much better than expected.




From FaceBook:
God is still so in control of Isaac's recovery, as he continues to make progress ahead of schedule. The results discussed today were surprising to the case manager, who expected these type of numbers "6-8 weeks from now", as many of his "goals" were met in the varied therapies! Speed of processing & "carryover" (learning of new concepts/skills) is much better when it comes to cognitive work (school work, strategy, etc.), but still behind "normal" in fine motor skills. He's learning to type to help with his school work, so this should be interesting. :-) Balance, coordination, & endurance are excellent for his "post coma" stage. The entire CNS staff just "loves" working with him, as true to his name, he makes them "smile and laugh". Praise God for the continued gifts to us!

CNS is contacting Huffines about the T2 ARD (the meeting after 30 days, to set standards/goals). We are coming up on 30 days (next week). She wants to get these set, as they want him to attend Huffines 2 days a week starting in January. (He was even asking about that this morning... he's initiating so they see that as WONDERFUL, even though they would have gone down this path without his initiating. Counseling sessions are indicating to Stephanie that he was being bullied at school - name calling ("4-eyes", weirdo, etc.) so he's a little worried about dealing with "friends", even though he did have a wonderful time at his Block Party.

NOTE:
Please say a special prayer for our cousin who is recovering from surgeries and may have to go through chemo. He is in Southeast Asia with a large family. Ask specifically for a miracle for his recovery. Satan should have no hold over them whatsoever.
