Nick is now speaking in sentences! 6-9 words long!
He's able to repeat what's said to him as well. They are slow, slurred words, but they can understand him.
Plus, he's asking for food. For instance, he told Lisa, "I can handle pizza." (Ha! Is that a 13-year-old or what???) Of course, he can't handle pizza yet. His body would not react well at all to it. He's basically eating only pudding, applesauce, and ice cream.
He's continuing to make better connections with moving his body. For instance, he can better differentiate side to side movement.
His nurse said these progressions would come in bursts and to take advantage of them. So Lisa and Dwight are doing a lot of work with him.

Hello Lisa, Dwight, and kids. This is Richard and Cynthia. We are still here cheering Nick on. We are so pleased with his progress. Richard lost his phone which holds all his phone numbers so we do not have a # for you. Please email us at recovery@chrisdaylin.org or you call Cynthia's # 619.756.1580. We love you guys. We will be visiting soon. We have been very busy. God Bless!
Hey, Nick...Isnt our God amazing? What amazes me the most is your perseverance. I found a few Bible verses about perseverance:
James 1:4
Perseverance must finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything.
2 Thessalonians 1:4
Therefore, among God's churches we boast about your perseverance and faith in all the persecutions and trials you are enduring.
2 Corinthians 12:12
The things that mark an apostle—signs, wonders and miracles—were done among you with great perseverance
