We went to visit with Daniel and stayed for a long time until he went to sleep. As soon as we went in to his room he knew it. We did one thing right when we bought him that tv because he loves to watch it and loves cartoons. It is truly amazing how much better he is doing up here. I found out he's had friends come to see him already just as soon as they found out he was here. I asked him a question and told him to blink if the answer was yes and he did blink. Lora said the nurses told her he was doing that the other night for one of them. They seem to all want to be a part of his getting better. Now I know he is getting good care and it's such a good feeling. Yes, he's going to be really surprised when he gets your cards. I told him again tonight about all the friends he has in so many places and named off the states to him that you guys are from.
He really listens when we talk to him.
Dad is doing ok, but certainly not back to being well yet. I have finally gotten him to eat more so he can gain some strength back. He's still staying downstairs on a roll away bed because his stairs are steep. So things are better but as far as his kidneys are doing I won't know until he gets with the kidney dr and I'm assuming will do more tests. Thanks for asking and I will relay your message to him.
I know I have read too that Jeff Gordon has done a lot of good for kids. It would mean so much if he did acknowledge Daniel in some way with a card, pic, or anything. Let's hope!
Till later,
Carolyn C
