Awesome update from Jen! 8/15/13

Sammy update 8/15/13: Yesterday, during PT, Samuel smiled & laughed! Twice! It was awesome. He mumbled (really, it was quiet throat-clearing) most of the day. He laughed again after Archie arrived in the evening. Today he was attempting to talk during OT! & more laughter during OT & PT. In PT, they had him standing with assists, but no apparatus. Sam's therapists (& mom) are very encouraged by the progress he's making. His PT is disappointed she'll be on vacation next week! Sammy is resting now, & has an hour of speech therapy @ 1:30. He may have the metal trache out tomorrow. He's doing well.
