Sunday Night

Mighty MikeyD is by far one of the most determined Little boys I have ever met in my life, in fact he  maybe one of the most determined people I have ever met. Next to my brother Seamus he is the only other person I meet that was this determined. I would put them both together head to head. I look up to and admire both of them. They never complain they never ask for help. They never say I can't it is not part of their vocabulary. yesterday MikeyD went sleigh riding at 6:30 in the morning with his sisters and Mike Sullivan.

MikeyD stayed outside most of the day, MikeyD was sleigh riding from 6:30 in the morning until 6:30 at night. When MikeyD  went out in the snow he took off his leg braces that help him walk because they would not fit in his snow boots. When he looked down the hill in the back of Sullivan's house and he was trying to figure out how he could get down on the sled I asked him do you want me to help you ? He said no Dad I am going to do this on my own, When he got to the bottom of the hill I asked him again if he wanted help getting back up the hill he said no Dad I can do it on my own. Donna Sullivan made us all breakfast when we went in the house and he was eating his pancakes I said MikeyD how are your pancakes he said they are wonderful. Donna made all the kids hot chocolate as well. I said MikeyD how is your hot chocolate he said it is delightful. Not only does he fight the fight everyday but he appreciates every little thing. Julia,Ciara and Mike Sully could go up and down the hill sleigh riding twice for every one time that MikeyD could but he smiled the whole way and went up and down all on his own at his own pace. Late that afternoon my brother Seamus came over with his son Seamus and they all went sleigh riding up and down that hill like it was nothing. The little boy who left us and came back ,who the neurologist said he would never do this or that again and the big boy who bled out in the street and the doctors said he would never do this or that again were sleigh riding up and down the hill like they never heard what others were saying they could or could not do. It is like I said before these two guys are my heroes.

Then tonight when I was going to post and I checked the blog I could not believe the post below from Peggy Dunne it was almost like she already knew what had happened. Hoping Mikey is enjoying the snow!! Praying that Mikey has a great week filled with lots of moments of healing and restoring his mind and body and spirit!! The journey is long and the work is hard and this Prayer Warrior kneels before God and asks that MikeyD will soon be playing with his friends and pitching and throwing 3 pointers..Lord Please Heal our MikeyD and give him JOY in his heart that will help him along the journey and outweigh the suffering or the hard work needed..Mikey has shown how much he can overcome..he is so strong and so determined..he is amazing..our Hero..our inspiration..as is his family..Lord carry them when it gets rough..and keep us all praying with our eyes fixed on YOU Jesus..YOU are the WAY..

We Believe in Miracles !!!
