Friday, April 4, 2008

Greetings,

Jack had a good Thursday, he was able to take another bottle from the nurse and Mom was also able to feed him from the bottle. He continues his growth pattern, now up to 3lbs., 7ounces. Jack is also doing well with his physical therapy. The therapist stopped by yesterday and made sure Jack continues to do his exercises as much as possible. The therapist was pleased with Jack's progress to date and provided Mom, dad and the nurses a regimen to follow.

Jack was visited on Thursday evening from his Godfather Ryan, cousin Taylor and Uncle John, all were amazed and surprised at how much he has grown. Jack was at his best when he flashed his signature smile and baby blues for his fans.

We look forward to another good day for Jack tomorrow.

On a side note we want to mention two special events coming up at the end of April. On Saturday, April 26th, Jack's Uncle John will be hosting his annual "Bowl for a Cure" to raise money and awareness for breast cancer research. The event will take place at Skokie Lanes from 3pm-7pm, prizes, silent auction, food and entertainment will be available. To reserve a lane call John at 847-316-2777.

On April 26 and 27 our friends at Misericordia will again be conducting their annual "Candy Days". As we all know there is no other organization as committed and dedicated to children and adults than Misericordia. You can always volunteer your time by contacting Misericordia.

Thanks to all........
JMJ
