LATEST & GREATEST

Jason continues to work super hard and with each day there is a slight improvement.  His walking skills are getting better and we are hoping we can see them in person this weekend when we visit.  His swallowing is also slowly improving which is a key function he needs back ASAP!   The best news we got today is that he replied to a question with a verbal "yes"!  We were also told he clearly said "no"to one of his nurses last night.  Seeing as how we were told that would be the last skill he would get back and it could be months I would say we just got another small miracle!

As Jason is working hard, (and Carolin too, both growing their baby and being with Jason every moment she can), his brothers and sisters continue working their own magic to put together an incredible fund raising event for October 12.  The website is now up with details, including purchasing your tickets.

They will be adding additional information and they should also have hotel info available soon for those of you coming in from out of town. We are all hoping to see lots of old and new friends and family from Lancaster, Fairleigh Dickinson University, Frederick High School, and everyone inbetween!

There have already been some very generous items donated for the auction and they would be thrilled to keep them coming in!   You can contact any of them at thejasonshepardfund@gmail.com

Praying, wishing, and hoping with all of you that we see Jason's smile, hear him talk, and feel his arms give us a big hug very soon!
