wear Papa (me) out. Ethan realizes that he has issues to deal
with that cause life to be a bit strange for him. He is over
weight as a result of his meds, he has left facial palsy, balance,
vision, swallowing, and some major muscle issues all due to the
growth of the tumor.
So... Ethan takes an adult had to walk, or will crawl on all fours
by himself to get around. He picks things to do that require very
little movement such as board games, reading, TV. He enjoys
sitting out back and cloud or bird watching, and tries to play catch
with a large soft ball. He has a wheel chair for his use, but does
not want to use it. Grandma was talking to him today and found out
he does not want to use it because it was for sick people in the
hospital - remember !
His mind is about 95 % of before, so interaction verbally is still
very good. Only real difference is as he tires, his process is a bit
slower and the speech is a bit more difficult to understand.
Ethan and the entire family thank all of you for your constant
thoughts and prayers. Attached is a photo from the end of Sept.
when Ethan and Dad (Kent) went to Sea World in San Diego.
Thanks again !
