It's incredible and wonderful Kevin survived the trauma, yet so many issues remain. <BR/><BR/>Your family has strength, courage, persistence, and love. These will see you through.

That's excellent news about Kevin's hearing! Yeah!!! It seems as we also have so many emotions concerning Kevin and your family. (and we aren't even there living everything) It's much more for you guys to think about being there. When I read good news I always have a better day that's for sure! Wow- 300 days! I understand what you mean about letting Kevin know about his brain. What a hard decision. I guess if he is depressed I wouldn't add that to it. I will pray that the doctors don't say thing in front of him either. Maybe down the road when things get better yet for him. Just my opinion of course. :)<BR/>I hope all of you have a wonderful Saturday! <BR/>Kathy in IAAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6815867650533403423.post-2480516176277723992009-03-28T07:29:00.000-05:002009-03-28T07:29:00.000-05:00Thats great news about Kevins hearing!!!

My prayers are for peace of mind and heart for all of you, for all that you have been through and all that is still to come.pommomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04771119800974135180noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6815867650533403423.post-3895366704469422422009-03-27T22:13:00.000-05:002009-03-27T22:13:00.000-05:00Leslie,So glad you're feeling better.On a positive...Leslie,<BR/><BR/>So glad you're feeling better.<BR/><BR/>On a positive note..with the roller coaster for life ahead of you...hey, you've got your son alive and making progress each day.<BR/><BR/>What a blessing.
