Home Again, Home Again

Good news!  JW is home from the hospital and doing well.  We are ecstatic that his trip didn't last too long!  I think it was more of a precaution than anything.  He also started to move his left arm more, including his fingers!!!!  This is huge for him.  Hopefully more improvements in his movement will begin to surface as well.  His lack of muscle tone is one of the possible reasons for his respiratory issues.  So, the more he moves and gains muscle strength the better he will continue to do.  Also, someone from ECI came yesterday and worked with him doing therapy.  The person (sorry, can't remember if Allie said it was a man or woman) even sat JW up and Allie said he loved it.  He liked being able to look around...wouldn't you after being in a bed for almost 6 months?  We are still waiting for more answers on JW's hips.  He goes to the doctor, I believe, next week for that appointment.  Please pray that the doctors will have some answers and a plan of attack as it is becoming more apparent that his hips are actually bothering him...and it makes sense why he can't move his legs with his hips dislocated, don't you think?  Hopefully we will have more insight into this issue and what the doctors are planning to do about it.  Please keep those prayers coming...they are working miracles!
