HUGE NEWS!!!

Zack's body has random spasms that have been occurring for weeks and have progressively gotten stronger and more frequent. Recently we have been noticing he can use the spasms to move his legs. For instance, when he has a spasm and concentrates hard, thinking about moving his leg, it moves!!!! He can't wiggle his toes, but can push/touch them together through the spasm.

I was lucky to get it on video!

Thank you for praying. Don't stop, it's working!

There is a small blip of an article in the OC Register of yesterdays paper (7/31), local section, page 14 bottom right. There is going to be a story with photos of Zack in the Yorba Linda Star paper that will come out this Thursday. You can pick up free copies of it at the library and various other locations in the city.

On another note, a few people have emailed me and said the comments they've posted are not coming up on the blog. We are working hard to resolve the technical glitch and should have it fixed shortly. Please continue commenting, it's really encouraging!

Thanks for following Zack's progress, we love hearing from you.
