Look who's talking now .... Dad actually began mumbling things last night. You had to get down close to his mouth to actually understand what he was saying. But this morning he's talking like there's no tomorrow. Although his voice is still quite soft, but much better than yesterday. I'm very grateful that he still has his sense of humor. He's cracking jokes, most likely just to lighten the mood, just like he always has.

In a few minutes they will be wheeling him down for an MRI. We'll be awaiting the results for that and updating when we find more.

Kyle was able to eat a blue popsicle all by himself. He really enjoyed the coolness on his raw throat. For dinner, he ate vanilla pudding.

Physical Therapy came and tried to get Kyle to stand up, but he wasn't quite able to do so. Since he hadn't been eating much we figured he would have a harder time doing this.

We found out that Shayne made Student Council for Academic Chair. Also, that both Ty and Shayne made this years baseball team. If any of you would like to donate they are doing a fundraiser in order to earn money for the team. You can make a check out to: Alpine Foundation for Orem High School Baseball.

Here are a couple of really good websites that give more information about AVMs.
