Thursday Night *

We had our first wiffleball tournament and it was a great time for all. A lot of kids showed up with their parents when I said we will choose sides someone said let's play the parents against the kids. that was a bad idea the kids crushed us. MikeyD was on the mound for the kids team and he had no mercy for anyone not even his Prayer warrior Peggy Dunne when he pitched to her there was no mercy and when she ran the bases he tagged her out. I do not think he really knows how much she did for him. We are planning on having more games this was really great for the MikeyD we had snacks for everyone then Moya ordered Pizza for all of us we came in and had Pizza and the first one that said lets go play when we were done was MikeyD it is truly amazing the energy and spirit he has after all the pain and suffering he has just been through. After being in a coma and then being paralyzed and laying around in a hospital bed for months from there he went to going around in a wheelchair and now he was the first one up and throwing the ball again. He is for sure the Middletown Miracle. This Tuesday April 30^th was Moya’s birthday MikeyD said do not worry Mom I think you look good for your age we all started laughing he was so sincere. Tonight when he came home from the Children’s Hospital he said mom where is my backpack ? She said I don’t know where did you leave it. He went and got his backpack and pulled out a present he said Mom this is a present from me that I made at the hospital for you for your birthday and mother’s day. It was wrapped very nice Moya said MikeyD did you wrap this for me ? he said no mom I could never wrap  like this Miss Carol wrapped it for me but I did help make it. I hope you like it. He made her a pot holder he then said Mom I hope it is not too small. Moya said MikeyD nothing you could ever give  me could be too small. He was so happy to give his mom this gift I wish you could of seen the smile on his face. MikeyD has started playing the lottery he picked some numbers and every week Uncle Larry brings him his tickets. He told me the other day Dad if I win the lottery the first thing I am going to do is pay off all my medical bills, the second thing I am going to do is donate a lot of money to CHOP and the Children’s hospital and then I am going to buy a big yacht for all my friends. After I heard that I said he is coming back to us. We need to bring him back to us from the Children’s Hospital in Mountainside to Middletown as soon as we can. I can’t imagine how he feels every day being away from all his friends in Bayshore. The doctor at CHOP who said the best thing for MikeyD right now is familiarity was right. I see it every time one of his old friends show up to visit him. If you can come visit MikeyD please do I know a lot of us are busy but it really does help him. I am not sure how much longer I will keep posting for MikeyD  I do not want to bore anyone now that he is getting better. No one knows how much further he will come back or if he will get any better. I do not want his old friends to forget him and hope that they come see him. Maybe we can get another wiffle ball game put together real soon. I would like to thank all of you for your prayers and support. I ask all of you to please keep in touch and come see the Middletown Miracle when you can.
