 Anna Grylls update Thursday 5pm
I took a video of Anna doing some of her exercises. It’s here:

http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-6861783444888130821&hl=en

Check out how much her body moves and her head control!

If you shine a flashlight in Anna’s eyes, or bang on the bottom of a saucepan by her head, she grimaces like she doesn’t like it.

WOW, PRAISE GOD!!!!

Also, she’s not incontinent any more – she holds her pee, then pees it out all at one, rather than it dribbling out all the time.

PRAISE GOD!!!

Also, Bubba is doing very well on his potty training also – he’s going on the big potty, and is often dry through the night.

PRAISE GOD!!!

Anna's continuing to do well on her Passy-Muir valve, and her tongue is working hard trying to push secretions out.

Slowly slowly slowly slowly slowly she’s getting better.

We are starting to look at the next round of therapy, which may be intensive stimulation to get her out of herself. PLEASE PRAY that we will find someone to train us how to do it and the right way and right time.

Thank you Jesus for healing Annie B!

God bless,

Richard

I have to say seeing the video brought tears to my eyes. You all are an amazing Family and Anna is just as beautiful as they come.
Continued prayers for the therapy to go well and for her continued control of the things she's now doing.
I don't always comment when I read your blogs anymore but I am always (at least every day) checking for updates on precious Baby Nanners.

I don't comment either but I often read your blogs. I am so glad she is making progress. I wish you all well.

Richard - what wonderful news it is seeing Anna's progress. Little things, a step at a time but all in the right direction. I do so hope God brings someone in your path who will carry out the therapy for you, 'Faith is being sure of what we hope for'.

It may be hard to consider yourself blessed...but after spending a month at Phoenix Children's with one of my girls and seeing so many kids that spend so much time there alone...maybe short daily visits from family or weekend visitors...babies with no one to comfort them...realizing that many children are from one parent homes and that parent has to work...but who stands in the gap for these kids...hospitals can be a scarry place...we watched one girl try to reach her mother by cell phone..where are you she would leave on her voice mail...tears rolling down her face...
We are so fortunate as a body of believers to have the best back up group of any one out there...hands down..So "be of good cheer" the trial has ben long and is not over for you and your family...But if God is for us..who can be against us...He truely is our peace...May he keep you each day in his care as you care for Anna...
