Day 116 – Grayson’s Condition

Dear family and friends

Today appeared to be a relatively uneventful day for Grayson. His general routine is: up at 7:00 in the morning; work at the clinic all day (physical therapy, occupational therapy, speech therapy, psychotherapy); back to the residence in the afternoon; do chores (today was check the mail and do the laundry); prepare and eat dinner; make and pack lunch for tomorrow; do therapeutic home program (THP) with the resident assistant (RA); chill (read, TV, music, rec center, etc.); prepare for bed; and lights out. Of course, all of these items come with lots of reminders to review checklists, and prompting. There were only minor reports of problem behavior today.

I spoke with Grayson just as he was ready to go to bed. He is excited to see us this weekend, and even more excited to hear that Lauren and Austin will be joining us, along with several other friends from USC. We have been told several times by the staff that he so looks forward to seeing us on the weekends – it does the heart good to hear that!

A short report tonight!

Pax!
