Hi We meet with Dr. Waltersdorf on Monday and Dr. Veenis on Tuesday. It will be so good to visit with them and get their evaluation, etc. Will keep you posted.

Monday night went GREAT!!! He didn't actually 'play' the game but the coach had arranged with the umpire for Dwight to be in the batting rotation. He normally plays left field and gets them in quick and accurate. The field they played at, two seasons ago when Dwight played he was constantly hitting them out of the park!!

He got up to bat twice ... first time he walked ... he still has a good eye there and his stance was perfect!!!! Second time batting he got a single and everyone was watching the ball ... it was a pop fly and the short stop MISSED IT!!!!!! Not on purpose either (the other team had been clued in as to what was going on) .... next thing we all knew, Dwight was on first!!!!!! He had a big grin too .... it was awesome .... both stands of fans were clapping and whistling and yelling hooray!!!!! Did this ol' mothers heart good!! I got a couple of pictures .... In today's mail I sent some pictures to my web-master and hopefully in a few days they will be posted to the website. I didn't have permission from the photographer to copy ones from the wedding which took place 5 days after arriving home ... but when I do, I'll get a couple of those on the site as well.

Joe returns from a business trip in CA today....he's been gone all week. They wanted him to stay the weekend and work into next week but he kept his committment to me I'm heading north to Overland Park (near KS City) when Joe returns. My 'adopted' Mom moved there a month ago and she's wanted me to come up and I will do so, Lord willing, this weekend. It'll be a nice break for me ... I'll help her continue unpacking the mass of boxes she still has to unpack.

Keep praying .... We are still trusting God for a miraculous healing of the frontal lobes .... Dwight does very well .... his physical strength is improving daily. When you see his pictures you will see that his appetite has replenished the lost weight.

On his birthday cake we put "Happy Birthday Miracle Man" ... within a week there were two people that met him for the first time and referred to him as the Miracle Man they wre praying for!!!! Thus it has sort of 'stuck' .... M2 (M Squared ... for Miracle Man) .... which he truely is a walking miracle!!!! TO GOD BE THE GLORY!!!!!!! Love to all .....

May God find US faithful!!!! joan for us 5 1 Cor. 2:5 "so that 'our' faith should not rest on the wisdom of men BUT on the POWER OF GOD"!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
