JR Update

For those faithful blog readers, you remember the first week of October a tragic accident for one of my kids. We didn't think he would make it, but after 3 wks in a coma and several more weeks at the U of I hospital, he was release to another rehabilitation center in Ankeny. JR is not the same kid from before Oct 2nd, but has the same zeal for life as before. This little guy is Philipino and his mom has no family in the states.

JR makes daily progress and makes it through a whole day of school with no naps now. He doesn't want to leave the room now because he is afraid he will miss something - not typical for a normal 7th grader (if you didn't know).

Pray for his family as this has obviously made a lot of changes in his family and for his friends.

In this picture JR is with his friends. He is second from the left next to the kid in the red.
