BUT, she has pulled through and has made AMAZING improvements and milestones. it's completely up to the Lord and of course the faith and prayers put into it. Dakotas name has been on the Mesa and Denver temple prayer roll so there have been TONS of people praying for him in the most sacred moments. keep up all the hard work, you two our out of control, so amazing!<br />please let us know if there is anything we can do.<br />love<br />the larsensLarsenshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05435841618655196069noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8611856663576328123.post-16889871493559782112011-02-08T13:17:38.724-08:002011-02-08T13:17:38.724-08:00Sweet Tessie an and Zach We are so happy for the i...Sweet Tessie an and Zach We are so happy for the improvement we see in Dakota!

I say, what do doctors know?! ;o) Lol. You keep being positive and believing in miracles!!! I'm so glad you're seeing him continue to improve and do new things! Sounds to me like he'll be proving that doctor wrong someday! Let's hope so!!!!!

I know you don't really know me from Adam, but I love your Mom. We grew up together and right next door. You come from a good strong back ground. Keep the faith. We will continue to pray in your behalf.

As I read little Dakota's story, the tears streamed down my face. Our storys are different but I truly feel that I was lead to read your blog. We have a 19 month old who has never crawled, walked or fed herself. We have been to every specialist and done every test to try and figure out our little medical mystery. The doctors can not give us any idea of what she will be like in the furture, which is very un-nerving, but I know that our Heavenly Father sent her to us for a reason. I am convinced that it was to help me appreciate the little things in life. She is making progress slowly and lately her strides have been bigger. I try to only think the best but get frustrated many times while watching other children her age. I can't imagine having a child that is running and playing one day and unable to move the next. You are truly an amazing mommy and Dakota is blessed to have parents that love him so much. I'm sorry to write a huge comment, but I felt I needed to share with you. No matter what anyone says, it is all in God's hands and he truly can work miracles.Tarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06818451827060980343noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8611856663576328123.post-83028051288104455732011-02-01T21:47:54.233-08:002011-02-01T21:47:54.233-08:00Happy Anniversary!

He seems to have a very strong spirit. He is so beautiful. I know that the rest of my family and myself have been have been praying for him, you and your family as you get through this trial. All the best. <br />HeatherHeather Leehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10378042223359593124noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8611856663576328123.post-65422382440543008602011-01-31T12:55:14.149-08:002011-01-31T12:55:14.149-08:00Happy Anniversary!

Doctors in my experience don't really have a soft touch. It would help if when they were handing out hard to swallow news, they would do it with some pizza. I have a 6 year old boy who developed sever Autism after a mystery virus just before his 2nd birthday. The hardest adjustment for me? The sleep issues too. Yikes. Reading your thoughts feels familiar, the whole bi-polar feeling is totally normal. I have these "I can do anything moments" followed by "I am never leaving the house again". It is rough, and from what I can see, you two are handling yourself's beautifully. I think you are right to be optimistic, the brain is a complicated organ. Thank you for being an inspiration. You really have a lovely family and a admirable outlook. I am praying for you all. Have you seen this? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UbsU3b2srQA (infinite power of hope)I have watched it hundreds of times over the years and it has helped me, you can really feel the spirit when watching. I know our situations are different, but by sharing my story I met people who offered help and encouragement, I hope you will have that too. Keep up the hard work. I am sending prayers and good vibes your way!<br /><br />chari0282@aol.comCDRhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12794641006059701992noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8611856663576328123.post-36273246106270517712011-01-31T07:49:17.662-08:002011-01-31T07:49:17.662-08:00LOVED the post.

Thought that might comfort you as well... <br /><br />I also just read the book 'The Message'. Not sure if you've read it or not or if it might comfort you as well but I really liked it. <br /><br />We'll continue to pray for your family and your miracle outcome!Troy, Brandy, and Boyshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01091873860068947831noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8611856663576328123.post-89726222826016768682011-01-30T19:51:11.784-08:002011-01-30T19:51:11.784-08:00What a wonderful month to celebrate your eternal f...What a wonderful month to celebrate your eternal family!!!
