Micah Update

December 03, 2007 at 07:51 PM EST

This morning I ask Micah if he wanted to use his spell board.

He looked up and 45 minutes later, he had spelled two things:

1. Up sooner
2. Turn bed up

He wanted the temperature of the water bed turned from 88 degrees to 92 degrees. He remembered what he set it at before his illness.

And for the first request, getting up sooner, we realize we need help. Micah wants to get better and he wants to work very hard.

These new requests have brought us to the realization that an extra hand would be very beneficial for him at this time. We can’t keep up with him!!!!!

So Mon-Fri our insurance will pay for someone to come and help us out for 8 hours. This will be a huge adjustment for me and I ask for prayer that it would be a good fit and benefit Micah in many ways.

We found out today that the fact that Micah’s body has the ability to know if it is hot and cold, numb, hurts in places etc. and the fact that he can communicate his needs is further indication there is major healing going on in the brainstem. This is very significant progress and we can’t step back and take all this in as we are just trying to keep up with all the changes and new requests.

A Bible study group came to pray for Micah tonight. There are 10 beautiful women here to intercede for Micah and pray for his complete restoration. We are truly blessed to be apart of this amazing work that God is doing.
