Keith has been receiving physical therapy and occupational therapy at home. They have been working on strengthening his core and he can move his stomach muscles. He can't suck them in like you and me but he gets a little stronger with them every day. They are working on having him sit up - maintaining a sitting position without support. So many things we do without even thinking he has to take great pains in teaching his muscles all over again.
The Dunnigans were able to find a van. Thank you to those of you who put feelers out there. The van has hand controls so while it may not be the corvette he has his sights on, it is transportation and when he is stronger he plans on driving it.
Senses Fail started mailing out the t-shirts and the pope apparently blessed one of his wristbands for him and a relic is on its way from the newly canonized Don Guanella. We aren't leaving any stone unturned in our fight to get Keith the help he needs - literally moving heaven and earth.
Keith plans to return to school in January in some form. Hopefully, in person but at the very least online. Any information anyone may have on grants, scholarships, etc. pass them on. We are in the infancy stages of learning what is available out there so every little piece of information helps.
Thanks for all the prayers and support through everything whether it be a t-shirt, a wristband, a prayer, mentioning Keith's situation to someone who might be able to be of assistance, anything and everything that everyone has done and continues to do is greatly appreciated.
Have a great weekend, be careful in the SNOW - can't even believe I just typed that on 10/28.
