Good Morning everyone,
Sorry I didn't post yesterday, seems like I need 35 hour days to keep up with everything. Myles is still getting better, yet he continues to get fevers now and then. His scheduled days are completely wearing him out. I think the nurses are starting to get scared of me. After a two hour very painful bandage change/wash (which he gets every single day) they wanted him to do two hours of therapy. I told the nurse that if she didn't at least give buggies an hour to recoop she would be in the hospital bed next to him! I know he needs his therapy BUT he also needs to recover from one painful process to the other. She came back in a couple of hours and Myles did great. They are really pushing him to use his hands, drink from a cup, put pegs into boards, etc. Last night he tried to use a fork during dinner (which I still have to feed him) and he wore most of it, we just laughed. His determination is still strong as long as they give him a rest in between. I have really understood the fact that no one can feel what you are going through yet no one can make it alone. We do truly need each other. Myles' humility through this is what gives him his strength, and of course all of your prayers and God's will.
P.S. I again want to thank all of you for all of your support and prayers but can you do me a big favor, add all the children of the world in your prayers of protection from God. Between seeing the burnt babies in the ICU and going back to the Ronald McDondald house, all the children need all of our prayers.
With love from Myles and Sherry

Myles,
Glad to see that you are moving around. I bet the pain is unbearable,,,,but it means your progressing and on the road to recovery. Your one amazing kid with alot of determination to get through this, and that is what it is going to take to recover to your fullest. It is sunny and bright here today and going to get warm acording to those weather guys. Always good to check the site to see how you are doing I think of you alot during the day. Sherry hang in there, It is alot of stress,,, and your living his pain through your eyes. Step back and take a little break once in awhile,,, or your gonna pop a fuse. I think you both are incredible and keep up the good work. We love you guys.Randy and Kim
