Day 105 – Grayson’s Condition


Dear family and friends

Regina, Lauren and I had a great visit with Grayson today. We went to church in the morning then had lunch together this afternoon. We again enjoyed sushi, as it is a favorite with him, and we have a very understanding staff that works with us at the restaurant.

Grayson's impulsivity with regard to eating has appeared to be improved. He was also a lot more "with it" this week compared to the last week as he was significantly more attentive, and displayed a lot more self control. His speech also showed improvement after a few weeks of being mostly non-verbal.

After lunch, we returned to his residence for a visit. We spent a few hours reading with him, throwing a ball around, and playing cards before heading home.

Grayson had a real treat this evening. He went to a live production of "Camelot". For those who know Grayson, he loves musical theater, and this was quite special. In fact, based on Grayson's input at a recent "town hall" meeting at the residence, this activity was added just for him. I think that we were just as thrilled as Grayson was that he had the opportunity to participate in this outing!

This was a great day that the Lord made. Let us be glad and rejoice in it!

Pax!

  1. I think that one of my first indepth conversations with Grayson was about musical theater. If I'm not mistaken he was in 5th or 6th grade. I was amazed at the time to be discussing this with him. I am delighted to hear that he has not lost his love of musical theater. Prayers and best wishes continue for all of you. Cheryl P
