Good evening!  Sorry but I’m not posting any videos today.  I’m very tired plus, the Pittsburgh Penguin’s game seven is on TV and has my full attention!  Montreal got off to a 4 – 0 lead, but Pittsburgh has scored twice since, so it’s still a game.GO PENS!!

I need to make a correction regarding my post from last night.  Patrick’s last name is actually Rummerfield.  Sorry about that!  For any of you that might be interested in learning a little more about him, check out this link – http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pat_Rummerfield.  He’s truly an amazing man, let alone an inspiration!

My mom and Aunt Den left this evening, as my dad and Gina arrived!  I just want to say thank you to those two for all that they did while they were here.  We had a lot of fun!

That’s all for now.  Sorry again for no new videos, but I’m pooped!  Have a great night!

Good evening!  Sorry but I’m not putting up a post tonight.  I do have good news though.  I had my doctor’s appointment with my Physician at Kennedy Krieger, Dr. Receico.  He did a follow-up with me and wanted to check on my progress, if there had been any.  Turns out, there was a lot!  Within the two months that I was last at Kennedy, I’ve regained a lot of sensation and feeling below my level of injury (C3-C4).  He was very pleased with what he saw and used the word “wow” quite a bit!  Actually, today I received some of the best news yet during my recovery.  I’ve been upgraded from Asia B to Asia C!  To those of you not familiar with what this means, please reference the following link – http://www.sci-info-pages.com/levels.html.  The Asia scale is towards the bottom of the page, which will explain what this progress means.  I’m super excited about it and it’s made my great week so far, even better!

Thanks again for all your prayers and good thoughts that you send my way!  They’re paying off.

Hello!

Hi everyone!

Not too much to report, just wanted to check in!

Hope everyone enjoyed the snow and Super Bowl  I got to enjoy Super Bowl Sunday with Jaime and Tory, which is better than any game!  We then got to spend all day Monday together, which was awesome!  The best, no offense Jaime, was having Tory planted in my lap, for what seemed most the day, and watching her play in the snow!  I am truly a lucky man – there’s no doubt about!!  I love them both so much!

Anyway, hope you’re doing well…And enjoy the second round of snow!  🙂

Need Some Help!

Good afternoon!

I have a huge yet simple request, and I would GREATLY appreciate your help!

My cousins, Erin and Nate, had a beautiful baby boy (Ben) on Jan. 10th!  Unfortunately he was born with some issues, which leaves many questions and even more stress and concern for my family.

Also, Erin’s Grandma Keyser recently suffered a heart attack.  Last I knew, she wa s stable b ut still hospitalized. 

Needless to say, they could use  some prayers and good thoughts sent their way.  You’ve all been such a big help to me, I figured maybe you’d take an extra minute to pray for them as well.  It would be truly awesome!

THANK YOU,

Aaron
