Small steps forward

Even though Michael is back in the hospital from a complication from the surgery, I still feel hopeful today. Michael is making progress in spite of having nmda receptor encephalitis. That tells me he is a fighter! He had 2 friends visit this week. Landon and Ashley came to spend time with him and they had a great time! He loves it when friends visit. Thanks to those of you who have taken the time to do so. We really appreciate it. He has a wonderful sense of humor and is very affectionate. We are anxious for the treatment to start, hopefully in a couple of weeks. Please everyone pray for a good out come for him and no secondary infections. A word about Pate. It is a wonderful place and is staffed with folks who get it. I can tell they really care about Michael and we feel very good leaving him there. It has a family feeling and that move was definitely a good one. Michael has not had any injurfies since he came there. He even told me " I have friends here. " I loved it! That is it for now. Thanks for all the love and prayers. Mom
