Sammy update 9/2/13:

Sammy update 9/2/13: Samuel & I have had a busy weekend! Saturday was a day-off from therapies. We stayed entertained by a few trips outside & some time with Archie. Sam has a lot of questions about the accident & hospital stay & his coma. We were very honest with him without scaring him too much. He seems to be over the post-traumatic amnesia! He is so impressed by the love of his amazing friends... and the music community. He knows about all the fundraising efforts & he is in awe. Sunday, Sam had therapies in the afternoon, & did incredibly well. Today therapies will be in the afternoon as well. He is speaking in complete sentences. He has his old voice - which is quite loved! Talking is tiring for him. Sam actually had complained of throat swelling after lunch - probably from use (eating & talking) after being in a coma for 4 weeks. I am asking Sam everyday if there's anyone he wants to see. The names he gives are the only people we're taking as visitors for now. Happy Labor Day everyone!
