Greetings to the fair populace of the Society! It is things like this that make me PROUD to be a Scadian!
Just yesterday, I sent out a call for someone who could knit baby caps for a six month-old in a PICU unit in Florida. The response was shockingly huge! I had many people write to me saying they were going to contact Heather, and that they would make some caps. She has already received a few! She has sent an update from his mother for everyone in the group, and sends a warm thank you for all the help so far. To everyone who has offered help and/or has already sent caps, I say HUZZAH! Thank you for being the kind and generous people you are. Truly, I am wow'ed by the responses. I knew there was somebody that would be willing, but I didn't imagine it would be so many somebodies!
Vivats the Dream!

Below is the update sent by Kristy, Kaleb's mother:
Kaleb had an Ok day today. The doctors have ordered speech therapy to start coming in daily and I was told the the lady who does it that this was a good sign. Today we focused on stimulization. I talked directly into Kaleb's ear and he responded by slightly moving his head to my direction. His breathing also increased. Then we played the lullaby glo worm and his arms shot right up in the air!!!!!!!!!! I mean STRAIGHT UP! I was so happy to see that. Then we focused on his mouth. We took a soft rubber thing and rubbed it against his lips and he would kind of smack his lips together. The speech lady thought that he did REALLY GOOD today. I was so happy to hear this! He is making leaps and bounds and I pray that this just continues. There has been a problem with his breathing pattern today though.... It has been kind of lower than normal. So I hope that this is nothing serious. His o2 stats are perfect though so I am sure that it is nothing serious.
This weekend is Father's Day... so I went out and got Josh something small. I had to run a couple of errands today. So I haven't been at the hospital too much today =( But Grandpa was! Now we are all here Mommy, Daddy, Grandma, and Grandpa.
Tonight Josh and I are going out on our date! We were told in one of the letters that we rcv'd to go out on a date... so we are going to celebrate fathers day tonight. Thank you to that special someone who made this possible.
The Arraignment to coming up VERY SOON. I am anxious for this... I need to pray about this.
Please continue to pray for my little man, Pray for his breathing to improve and pray that justice will be served for him
