~ Hunter Update ..a Week later~

As of Friday this is the "1 week later" update :
Hunter can talk and carry conversations, it is just frustrating for him because it all doesn't come out as he wants (with time Hunter, with time babe) !! He is working with a Speech Therapist daily...he is making great progress..I have talked to him 3 times & he is in great spirits!!
He is still as sweet as ever too... :)
He has walked with support from the Physical Therapy it is all moving forward but is taking time. Baby Steps...Baby Steps!!
From what I hear he rode the bike today in P/T (some kind of bike they have in there). ..awsome news for the family!!
His Right Hand is still not working much at all but we all pray that will happen with time (they said it will take the longest)..He is working 3 to 4 hours in P/T & O/T along with "school" is what they call it I guess at the hospital...it is some learning games & whatever else.
He will be out of the hospital on Thursday July 8th.
Back to school is in August & he will be going into 4th grade.
The Dr's have said he will not need a wheel chair when he goes back...they are all staying positive & it seems to be going well for him.
The family already had a Family trip planned to Hawaii before the accident & they along with the Dr's have all decided if they ALL want to go then they all should go!! So they are leaving the day he gets out of the hospital to Hawaii for 2 weeks to follow through with thier summer vacation...they may have to do some adjustments to the plans such as a jogger stroller to get him around ,or a wheel chair, but they are looking forward to getting him out of the hospital & continue moving forward on the Beaches of Hawaii! What a recovery place!!
Please keep them in your thoughts & prayers.
