Many of you have asked how you might be able to help us. We have appreciated your offers and will most certainly be taking you up on many of them over the next few months. My sister, Kaylee, has gotten together with her softball team and is trying to raise enough money to put up a fence around the canal and help with the medical bills that are accruing each day for Samuel’s care. She is hanging up fliers and putting donation cans in stores and she will be holding a large garage sale in Orem next Saturday. She is also setting up a bank account where anyone can donate to Samuel’s fund. She is going to get me the details of this account tomorrow and I will let you all know in case you are interested.Today, we were finally able to talk to the rehab doctor. She thinks that this posturing will end within a few weeks and we certainly hope so as it is VERY difficult to watch. They are medicating him trying to keep the posturing to a minimum while allowing him to still be as awake as possible. But the medications are dulling his senses, so we don’t get much of an opportunity to feel that his little spirit is in his spasming little body. They have also said they are a little concerned with his lungs and watching them as he seems to be laboring a little for breath and pneumonia is always a concern.
Please keep praying for his little body to heal and for his spirit to be comforted and that his parents will have enough faith to bring the best possibilities to pass. We know that with God, we can do anything.
We also want to thank all those who have done so much for us thus far. We couldn’t do this without each one of you. And every prayer is a blessing. Thank you! Tom, Teresa & Samuel
