Dave is now reading his own large print emails from friends and family! He is so thrilled! He hasn’t been able to read in 41/2 years. He reads slowly of course since it has been so long, and his brain needs to reconnect but wiith practice this too shall improve. It is just amazing that he is reading at all. He really read very well, and of course we captured it on video and with still pictures. Some of the changes are so suttle that they really can go unnoticed at first, such as the decrease in pain and spasms. You realize during one of the transfers that the spasms are less. Then you start realizing that the imrovements are more than you realized or even hoped for. Dave’s eyesight improving was a big hope for him, and he is hoping for continued improvement with time. His independence depends on his visual capabilities with his other disabilities, so pray for the best. Never, ever give up hope. More to come in the next several days, but didn’t want to wait to advise others of this change!
