Friday Afternoon

MikeyD is sleeping better since they changed his medication on Monday Thank God.
he had a good night sleep on Tuesday  and Wednesday night he still wakes up every couple of hours for water and does not sleep through the night but at least he is getting a couple hours of sleep a night.
they say that sleep is the best thing for a brain injury we really believe that all your prayers are working. The Dr. is talking about injecting MikeyD with Botox shots to help relive the muscle spasms that he is getting and are causing him pain we hope they work. Cookie is going to stay with MikeyD tonight, the girls are going to stay with Aunt Gail and Moya and I are going to go out to dinner. We also have my Mom sister Diane, Jean Marie and other family members and friends offering to stay a night here and there with MikeyD which is great we will work out a schedule for that. The support from all of you on the blog in the many different ways is greatly appreciated by my whole family. We cannot thank you all enough for posting all your kind words of love and support for MikeyD we are so happy to see the post from all of you on how you check the blog morning and night.
it was great to see the post from the Tucci family and read how happy Paul and Dominick were happy to see MikeyD smiling I was happy to see Paul and Dominick smiling. I know MikeyD was happy to see them. When they came on Sunday MikeyD was not the same as he was on Saturday due to the fact that he did not sleep on Saturday night at all so I thought they did not enjoy the visit I was happy that they all enjoyed the visit with MikeyD. Makes us all happy to see the post from Barbara Cassin that she was driving out of town and seen all the Green ribbons. It is great to see that Dawn Gervase said that her family will add this prayer to the list of prayers they already say for MikeyD along with the post from Donna McCann and all the rest of you offering help and support.   We are looking forward to the day  that MikeyD can say to Peggy Dunne thank you so much for being my prayer warrior . we would like to thank all of you for your prayers and support.
Please pray that MikeyD will speak soon again one day.
If you can visit MikeyD it will be greatly appreciated it. I do agree with the Dr. that familiarity is the best thing for him right now. If you are planning to come see him ask the kids to think of questions that can be answered yes or no. Also tell him you have a lot homework even if you don’t then ask him if he has any homework.(it will make him smile)
You can also remind him of stories of thing that happened in the past.
Visiting hours are from 1 in the afternoon to 8:30 PM at night. Weekends are good and if anyone can make it after school during the week would be great as it is very quiet for him during the week.

Keep the faith and Believe in Miracles .
Please keep praying and posting.
I would also like to  remind everyone to please say the Novena from Sandy for three days.

Copied and pasted from her email .
