Very quiet day for Steven today. He still seems depressed. Doesn't have much to say. He seems to have an earache...the right ear. I bought him some natural ear drops and he said they helped. He is also complaining of a sore throat. Hope he is not getting a cold. Maybe he is just not feeling good and this is why he is kinda withdrawn. I'm calling the doctor in the am.
He spent the day with Katie. She made him take a walk. He only went 6 houses but at least he went. She also made him walk the line in the street for balance, which I thought was a great idea. She gets her smarts from me...don't let Patrick tell you any different...haha. She also had him do some of the exercises that therapy gave to him to do at home. She's a tough cookie.
Aunt Brenda brought us dinner tonight...she's awesome. She also made him go for a walk (I should say she convinced him to go)...anyways he walked another 4 houses so that was a total of 10 today :)
All in all, another good day.
Thanks for all the prayers...love you all <3

I didn't get to the blog yesterday, so here's my take on therapy. I don't know about Pat, but as I sat there and watched him go through the testing for 3 different therapy sessions, I was so proud of how well he did. He even had us all laughing at a few smarty-pants responses to questions. PT and OT gave him homework, he just loved that! Speach told us to stick to asking questions and getting common sense answers, as well as puzzles, word searches, mazes and crosswords. Also, to have him read, saying that reading is always good. We will find him some good fishing books! All-in-all, he was a good sport and did not complain once. He took a good nap after lunch, he deserved it!!! Stopped in today to bring him a couple brain-game books, he was afraid I was going to make him work!!! He continues to put a smile on Aunt Barb's face!
