Charlene woke up at 5am and went to sleep at 1030am. I was struggling whether I should bring her to school (starts at 1pm). I am glad I brought her there. When the bus turned into the school, Charlene woke up. As her classmates haven't reach yet, Teacher Adeline could afford to spend more time waiting for Charlene to respond.
The teacher is training Charlene on the use of a communication device. At the count of 1,2, Charlene is to raise her hand and pressed a buzzer which would say 3 on her behalf. She did that twice. Teacher Adeline put Charlene's left hand on her photo and her right hand on her classmate's (a boy) photo. Charlene surprised all of us by swiftly dropping her right hand. Her teacher was very impressed as this is the first time that she has done 'this exercise' with Charlene and she wasn't sure that Charlene is up to it.
Thank you Jesus! Glory be to God, our Father!
We are really pleased that Charlene can smile, can recognize her parents and herself, can understand what is being said and can indicate her preferences (through choosing and whining). It is a miracle considering what the neurologists said about her being a vegetable, unable to recognise her parents.
