Saturday continued

As the nurse put it this morning....'he's full of himself today!'. She said she heard an unfamiliar noise coming from his 'cubby', so she went over and his head was going up and his feet were going down and vice versa...He had found the buttons on the side of his bed and was just pushing them.

He's also communicating (just with his right hand and head nods) more and more. His nurse asked him today if his sister had any children and he held up 2 fingers! Wow! He has also squeezed beats out on Mom's hands as she's singing to him.

It's amazing. His brain is still so swelled and he's on a lot of pain medication, but he's able to see us and recognize us and communicate. We're so thankful for these blessings and for all of your prayers.

All the time God is good!
Aidan and I have been talking about and praying for "Miss Brenda's boy." Thanks for keeping us updated through these wonderful, poignant and encouraging messages. We're waiting for information about how we can help ... until then, the Soltys family will remain constantly in our prayers. Keep healing, Jamie!

Karen, Chris and Aidan

Sarah and William, Thank you so much for keeping us all up to date. I don't know how many states and countries have people pulling for Jamie and all of you (I expect it's a bunch), but just wanted to be sure you know we're thinking about you in Texas.

What wonderful news! We are still praying for continued healing. Am hoping that the rest of the family is resting. Looking forward to our visit in a couple of weeks. Still planning on arriving in Charlotte on the 10th. Love, m
