Mighty MikeyD got to celebrate another Birthday with us a true
miracle Thank God.
MikeyD did get a little
puppy dog for his Birthday but
not the one in the picture before his birthday. MikeyD got her brother who is
more red with a little white just like Sam in the picture of MikeyD with Sam
and Sally the two pups look just like the two dogs. Some people say that the
boys are easier to train we will see.
MikeyD really love this little puppy and the little puppy is good
therapy for him.
If anyone has any information at all that will help MikeyD with
training his puppy dog please post them here and let us know.
MIkeyD is back at The Children's Specialized Hospital in
Mountainside since Monday where he has started an intense therapy
program of Speech therapy, physical therapy, occupational therapy neuro rehabilitation
and school. The days are very long. Our goal is to get MikeyD back to
Middletown as soon as possible.
The fact that Mighty MikeyD is so determined to get better and
come back to us is a major step. He continues to fight the fight every day and
do things that amaze everyone. We pray that he will continue to improve and get
better every day.
Mighty MikeyD is a true Miracle !
We believe in miracles.
Please keep praying and posting.

Mike & Moya,
ReplyDeleteHe looks fantastic. I think the puppy is a fantastic idea. Just remember all the talk of all the things they said wouldn't happen back in September, now look at him. Approach his new therapy with the knowledge that there isn't a problem on this earth that is too big for our God.
All of our initial prayers have been answered, but it is time to ask for more. I pray that MikeyD makes a complete and full recovery. I know there will be naysayers, but that means nothing to me because it means nothing to God. This young man is an inspiration in determination and if anyone can do it it will me God through MikeyD.
We love you all and have never stopped praying for MikeyD and praising God.
Jim, Cindy, Evelyn, & CJ Rooney
Love the picture! You guys see Mikey D everyday so you may not see the differences right away. We saw him right after he came home & again this past week & he has certainly progressed even more in that short period of time. What he's accomplished so far is nothing short of amazing. He was walking all around, picking up the puppy, playing games & of course making us laugh.
ReplyDeleteIt's true that he still has a long road & a lot of hard work ahead of him, but he's shown his determination & he will do it.
As for the puppy, I don't have any tips for you but boy is he cute! Such a good disposition, they are a perfect match. Good call.

ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday Mikey D~ Enjoy your puppy! God Bless xo
It was so great to see Mikey on his birthday, and on Doherty soil again. When we pulled up in the car, I couldn't believe my eyes. Mighty Mikey D was walking, no...MARCHING across the front lawn to greet us. No wheel chair, no crutches, no nuthin! The last time I saw him he was in a wheel chair and could hardly speak....and there he was, checking out my new car, and even commenting on the groovy red leather interior. I was so overwhelmed with emotion, that I started to get light headed. For a minute there, I thought you might have to call a helicopter for Uncle Ken this time. I just couldn't believe how far he's come. I couldn't take my eyes off him. I was looking at a miracle. A miracle in sneakers : )
ReplyDeleteI am now convinced that as time goes on, Mighty Mikey D is going to get better , and Better, and Better, and BETTER! Happy birthday Mikey D. Hope you enjoy the gummy bacon !!!
Congratulations on the new member of the Doherty family!! What is the puppy's name? You are in our prayers and thoughts every day MikeyD!! Your determination and hard work continue to inspire me and others too! I still get chills when I read about all the things that you are doing now that for a long time seemed so impossible. The good Lord has blessed us all by answering many prayers! Keep up the good fight Mighty MikeyD!!
ReplyDeleteYou are and will continue to be in our prayers!

Michael-
ReplyDeleteKeep fighting. Your determination is amazing! I am happy to hear about all of the great news. Health and happiness always.

So great to see Mikey D courtside today at Mother Teresa! I was so lucky to get a chance to sit and talk to him. He is amazing! I told him our team was having a rough year and we sure could use his help (burying threes). Guess what? We won for the first time this season. Mikey is our good luck charm. What is he doing next Saturday?! Keep up the great work Mikey! Cant wait to see you back on the court and in the halls of Bayshore.
