Holiday Greetings!

It’s been a while. Thanks for sticking in there and checking up on us from time-to-time. Dominic’s recovery continues, but not at the rate we’ve seen in previous weeks. As his Grandma noted, it appears to be more about fine-tuning now. His physical limitations, while greatly diminished, continue to be a source of frustration for Dominic. He has finally begun to grasp the severity of his injuries and has accepted the fact that he can no longer participate in many of the activities he once enjoyed. Again, we firmly believe he will be able to return to his pre-accident activities in time, but it’s difficult to see him struggle in the meantime. A recent appointment with his neurologist was very reassuring. We were told Dominic would continue to surprise us with his recovery. We have to keep in mind that it's still very early on and he's already made such incredible strides.

Dominic and his brothers are very excited about Christmas approaching. They’ve already submitted their wish lists and Kim and I have pretty much completed our shopping for them (with the exception of a few stocking stuffers). We have much to be grateful for this Christmas. Not the least of which is the continued love and support we receive from family, friends and our community. We wish all of you a very Merry Christmas/Happy Holiday, and we hope you will continue to follow Dominic’s progress in the coming year.

Peace & Love,

The Loperena Family
