As of yesterday Orion does not have to wear his eye patch any more! Cool deal! The medical folk at Dell Children's Hospital informed the cute little redhead that, although he still has a bit of double vision, they felt the eye patch was no longer needed. Hurrah!!! Yet another milestone!
With his father at their home today, Orion showed me some of his jujitsu moves using his poor dad as his "assistant". I felt sorry for Matthew, getting his joints hit upon and bent back some. I know it hurt but Matthew didn't seem to mind. Orion remembers his sensa's instructions and put on a good show for me. His little sister Scarlett was not so impressed. She just wanted Orion to play with her. She really adores her big brother.
This picture shows her sitting with Orion as they play "Off Road ATV". She was so happy sitting there with the control in her little hands pushing invalid buttons that she just knew were making things happen on the screen.
But a little one who will celebrate her first birthday in a couple of weeks can only sit there for so long. She then got off the couch so as to hand Orion the play station box and messed things up for a bit by dropping it. Orion wasn't too happy but took it all in stride. After all, not only was that his cute little sister whom he doesn't get to see very often, but he and his dad do have one of the largest collections of legos that I've ever seen. So the lego-master started playing with his legos knowing his dad would help him fix the play station later. Life is good!
Please continue to keep Orion in your prayers as he could not be doing so well without your love and good wishes. Thank you so very much! If you would like to send a message to him but would rather not put something on this blog, please feel free to email him/them at orionandmatt@gmail.com
Love always, Orion's Nana Colleen
