Just a quick update on Dominic's progress. The past two weeks have been remarkable. Dominic has gone from almost non-responsive to lifting himself into a sitting position. His speech therapist has even begun to introduce semi-solid foods as part of his diet. We are all very excited to see how much he has achieved, but he still has much more healing to do. His right side (arm, leg, face) still show signs of partial paralysis. We've seen small signs that he is able to move his right arm and leg, but it's clearly a struggle for him. We firmly believe he will overcome this obstacle in time. Dominic is still not responding very well to verbal commands or instructions. Again, we just need to be patient and allow him to progress at his own pace. It’s still very early in his recovery and he’s accomplished so much already. We continue to be inspired by his fight. He seems bound and determined to return to us as he was. Please continue to keep Dominic and our family in your thoughts and prayers. We’ll continue to provide updates on his recovery as often as we are able. Thank you all for your love and support.
