Update # 123

Day 460 and all is well !

It has been a week of exciting events at Ethan's house.
We all enjoyed a happy father's day,  then we had Papa's
(me) birthday.  Also during this week, Ethan received
phone calls from Dr. Brooke (his local doctor) and  also
Dr. Epstein (his lead doctor from CHLA).  Both are
really happy with how Ethan is doing and how long he
has been doing it.  Ethan continues to push the norm for
what so many expected.

Ethan continues to receive mail from so many people
and from all around the world.  To those that have sent
Ethan mail,  thank you.  He really enjoys the cards
(posted all around the house) but he also enjoys being
shown on the map where he is and where the card came
from.  And your comments have been very nice - again
thank you.

Ethan's garden has really started to take off.  He enjoys
watching it grow and seeing the harvest that Grandma
collects.  He had a big smile today as we send our neighbors
some squash and peppers.  This is an act that has taken place
for several years and Ethan enjoys giving them "his stuff".
They enjoy the goodies and make a big deal of it to Ethan.
We have Really Good Neighbors - Thanks Lupe & Betty.

We did our measurements today.  Ethan's weight has dropped
to 38 pounds  (17.2 kilograms)  but his height increased to
47 inches  (1.19 meters).

We continue to be blessed with your prayers and support.
Thank you all very much for keeping us in your thoughts
and actions.
