Marvin's amazing smiles.

Sorry there hasn't been any news in quite a while...

On Thursday, Cathie and Marvin worked quite a bit with the PT and they both were very pleased ecstatic with the outcome.

Stuff that's moving:

• Both of his hands have some finger movement
• He can raise his legs off the bed
  
• He can push his legs down after they are raised towards his chest

And the really big one:

• With his legs tucked in, he was able to raise his back side off the bed ever so slightly!

When Cathie was telling me this over the phone I could tell she was grinning from ear to ear. I am convinced that Marvin too, although exhausted by all the exercise, was flashing one of his amazing smiles.

It was a very good day.

He still has a fever lingering around 100 and the cultures the doctors took earlier in the week came back positive for Pneumonia. This is a real concern, so we ask for prayers for a break in the fever as well a quick response to the antibiotics.

I will post an update this evening or first thing in the morning with any news.

Sincerely,
