Tuesday Afternoon from Tammy-

Jack is at "snack attack" group time with 2 other kids his age right now. They are making orange julius's and having a great time I am sure.
I talked to Dr. "Mack" this morning and he was going to talk with the other therapists today and see about moving up Jack's date of departure. Haven't heard from him, and I might not until rounds tomorrow morning.
Jack has been officially released from speech therapy all together.
Patti said there is nothing left to work on, his swallow is perfect and he has his voice back. I am amazed at that. Jack has enjoyed all of his meals today, and best of all the feeding tube was removed. God has blessed the people in this facility through Jack's smile and kind nature. Everyone seems to be drawn to him. Teenagers are dropping by in their wheelchairs to our room, just to tell Jack hello, and all the little kids his age enjoy playing alongside him.
Jack's roomate Sahan, 3 yr. old boy, is doing better also. He was officially removed from coma status, and is able to talk and sing a little. He is responsive at times. There is a long way to go on his therapy, after the car accident that he and his mother were in he had a stroke that affected his left side. But after seeing all the work that is done here to help children heal, I am sure that he will be up and around in time. Please pray for Sahan and his mom, his father and grandmother have asked us to ask to pray for him.
Moe is Sahan's father, and a muslim, and he said to me today, that Jesus has healed Jack. I pray for Jesus to shine His glory all over this family and for them to see just where that Glory is coming from.
As always love, Tammy

Well, bless their hearts. . .and bless yours for shining the light of Christ even (and especially) during this difficult time. I have prayed for Sahan and Moe and his wife. . .a seed is planted.
