A Picture Is Worth 1K Words

[caption id="attachment_314" align="alignnone" width="640" caption="Rachael after moving her head to the left."][/caption]

Rachael has not been able to move to the left.  Her muscle 'tone' pulls her to the right.  Today, for the first time ON COMMAND Rachael moved her head to the left 3 times while sitting in her chair and twice on the mat in Physical Therapy.  Praise God, keep the prayers coming!  This was a big stitch.  We pray that she will be able to repeat it consistently over the next days.

I love you, Lord;

I don't know you personally, but have been praying for you and with your family since I heard about your accident. It is so wonderful to hear that you are making great strides. My favorite part of this update was getting to see your beautiful smile and face to put with my prayers. God Bless you and your family.
