Update on Ashton
Ashton just had his third brain scan and there is still a lot of swelling but for the most part things are looking really good. He has a couple of little areas of the brain that look a little damaged but the doctors said that because he is so young his brain will most likely be able to adapt for them. They finally took his intubator out but he still has a feeding tube. His 9 year old sister Alaina got him to open his eyes for her for the first time. He has a bruised lung but miraculously no broken bones. He actually skid on his face and has pretty bad road rash so may have to skin grafts but they will wait to see how he continues to heal. That is the progress for today...but it IS progress!

I'm so glad to hear that he is doing a little better each day. It is a miracle that he doesn't have any broken bones. It is amazing how well a body can heal itself, especially when we are young. He is still in our thoughts and prayers the kids pray for him everynight.
