Dear family and friends
Grayson was exceptionally low energy today. He had trouble getting out of bed this morning and staying up all day. Because of the holiday, the clinic was closed, so the lazy day didn't have much effect on his therapy. He went to bed at 8:00 this evening, so hopefully a good, long night's sleep will have him ready to go in the morning.
He did participate in music therapy this evening, but his participation was a bit half hearted due to his energy level. After dinner, he played video games for a while in the rec center with one of his buddies from the center. After that, it was time for bed.
Given that we will have up and down days, today was a bit of a down day. I spoke with some dear friends today, and it reminded me that I have not mentioned lately how grateful that we are for all of your prayers, cards and good wishes. They lift us up, especially when we become disappointed. Thank you – you are all blessings from God!
Pax!

When you mention things like music and singing in church, it reminds me of the deep well that is the human mind. There are undamaged areas, and damaged areas. But the healing potential is so incredible! New connections develop, bringing all the deep areas together and increasing access to those areas that are isolated by the injury.
ReplyDeleteMaybe during some of the 'low energy' days, the brain is using all of Grayson's energy to mend and connect.
Believing with you,
