Noah Update

For those of you keeping up with Noah's progress at Duke University Hospital in North Carolina, I just wanted to let you know that he is out of PICU (Pediatric Intensive Care Unit). Noah's Mom posted that he drank a strawberry milkshake today, sat up in a wheelchair, and laughed at a cartoon. His surgery was on Wednesday of this week!!

On Wednesday night, he CLEARLY told his mom that "this table is hard as a rock". CLEARLY is the important word here. Noah hasn't been able to talk clearly for months due to the constant seizure in his tounge and face. His twitching (seizures) in his face, hand, and arm are gone. They have seen movement on his left side. WONDERFUL NEWS!!

Praise to God and medical science for this miracle boy who, without knowing it, is giving us so much hope, faith, love, and courage to move forward.

God Bless his parents Laura and Brian, and his brother Sam (13) and God Bless Noah. Please watch over him and heal his body quickly!!

If anyone wants to write a note to Noah and/or his family, you can do it on his blog at http://noahsblog.supportnoah.com/user/categories.aspx

Goodnight. Sleep well Noah and family. You've had a rough week.
