Mighty MikeyD continues in warrior mode. He is fighting hard every day to battle back from the traumatic brain injury. He started his transition back to Bayshore on Monday and Friday's. This has been great for him and has really made him feel good to get to see all his friends and classmates and not have to go to travel and hour each way to the hospital every day. MikeyD will be part of the graduation ceremony at Bayshore tomorrow night. Although he will not be officially graduating he will be walking with his friends and classmates as if he was. MikeyD has come a long way but still has a long way to go. MikeyD will be going back to the hospital every day for the summer to continue all his therapies. In September he will start his official transition back to Bayshore for the new school year he will go to the hospital 3 days a week and Bayshore 2 days a week and then Bayshore 3 days a week and the hospital 2 days a week. MikeyD said he will really miss all his friends who will be moving on. One of MikeyD’s Guardian Angels will also be graduating this week his sister Julia will be graduating on Thursday night. Congratulations Julia we are so proud of you. Thank you to Julia and Ciara for taking such great care of MikeyD.

ReplyDeleteI know that you are disappointed that Mikey isn't graduated with his class. Considering everything he has been through walking with them at is a graduation in itself! At the rate Mikey is going, his new goal could be to catch up with them. To truly walk with them at his High School graduation. Anything Mikey puts his mind to is possible !!!!
Congratulations to Julia on her graduation! I am sure concentrating on school and helping Mikey must have been hard at times!! You did a great job!
Ciara being the healthy middle child has to be hard But you do find a way to shine on your own. Please continue to shine. Your light guides Mikey's way!
Prayers to all
Linda, Mike & Mary
