Day 847 - Sep 23, 2010

I made a big pan of lasagna and we had company tonight for dinner. I can honestly say that this house hasn't laughed that hard in forever! Mike (Moe's friend from East Brady) and his wife, Cat, came over and together with myself, Kevin, Brianna and Johnny we honestly had a blast! Even Kevin stayed at the table for a very long time and it was so great to see! I swear, my face still hurts from laughing so much! Here's a photo:



And Kevin had speech therapy today. Connie from the VA comes over once a week and does therapy on him (we love this woman!), but we both agreed today that he needs more than one day a week. She is putting in a request for for Kev to be able to go more often where he already goes for OT and PT. Hopefully it will get approved!

And that's about all I have to say tonight. I am still sending letters to various congressmen and I hope to get it done tomorrow. If not, I guess I'll have the whole weekend...

I'm so thrilled to hear of the progress Kevin is making in therapy and that he is able to handle more of it. I hope he's able to get more speech therapy time since he's obviously ready for it!

You have enough on your plate already, so if you feel there's a need to complain about the VA, then it must be pretty bad! Let us know if there's anyone we can write to help you out. It makes me mad to think of anyone taking advantage of Kevin.

I'll be thinking of you and praying for Kevin's continued progress! Take care.
