The truth is no one knows except God. But Jude WILL find his own ways in the world, they may not be regular ways but he WILL find his own! I never used to be able to imagine Faith communicating with us, but she managed ways and has her own ways of showing us what she wants or needs. I think it has alot to do with the delays (waiting for progress) that take sooooooo much longer with special children. That is so agonizing! Have Faith that Jude will overcome many seemingly insurmountable things! God has His hand on him.Candacehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04201448627487443779noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8581317431133132518.post-2001638465115059242009-09-09T19:38:16.704-05:002009-09-09T19:38:16.704-05:00JEN!!!

It actually sounds really similar to how Parker kisses us (and all the boys at daycare). <br />I too have heard about similar stories where it seems like cognitively "normal" people are trapped in a failing body. Who knows where technology will be. There was a program on 60 minutes about a device that is kind of like a hat that will allow people to think and it puts the thoughts on a computer screen. Totally eerie but so cool!!!!<br /><br />Much love to you all!<br />Parker & Amy HendrixAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8581317431133132518.post-78093920989478190082009-09-09T13:45:58.485-05:002009-09-09T13:45:58.485-05:00I only spent a little time with Jude but I definit...I only spent a little time with Jude but I definitely felt like those eyes had thought going on behind them.Katyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02189007616883663434noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8581317431133132518.post-78380293788464850992009-09-09T12:52:45.006-05:002009-09-09T12:52:45.006-05:00Wish I could answer your question...I feel the sam...Wish I could answer your question...I feel the same way. The same answer comes up every time though and that's that they do things at their own pace.<br /><br />Oh, and if you think the looks are bad now, wait til you get the wheelchair!!! Its comical to me now. But for the most part, people don't really notice, I think we are just a little more aware and kind of expecting a look so we look for it. I'm proud of Kendall, and at least when they see her it explains why I always look so frazzled!!!<br /><br />Sorry we had to miss the birthday party. Looks like you guys had a great time. Here's to the next year full of development! xoxoxojocalynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07313874191250865765noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8581317431133132518.post-25763630111879887402009-09-09T12:29:12.829-05:002009-09-09T12:29:12.829-05:00If Jude is trying to accomplish something, he WILL...If Jude is trying to accomplish something, he WILL. He will get there. It may take longer than some other children, but with your love and support, he'll find a way. My son works *so* hard to do things that come naturally to other kids. Watching his determination has broken my heart open in ways I didn't think possible. Don't lose hope. Whatever you're being told about Jude's future, don't let anyone destroy your hope.Julia O'Chttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16330856629856439993noreply@blogger.com
