well spence did it,he got the mohawk today. i think it needs a little gel but i am sure that will be taken care of.
a busy day for him. he walked with a cane for the first time. that made his week for him. his floor then had a scavenger hunt thru MGH. they had 2 teams to hunt for various items. spence's team did not win, (as Mrs Doherty's class has told him) they are all winners. the time off the floor was well worth it. their next projects are to make pizza and ice cream. i may wait on that taste test.

WOW! you look great! Maybe I can talk Hanna and Taylor into the same haircuts. I have such a hard time fixing their hair for their gymnastics meets and keeping it off their faces, this style would definitely work! We are so proud of all that you have accomplished in such a short time. All the kids in Hanna and Taylor's classes ask me on a daily basis how you are doing and they include you in their morning prayers. I can't wait to show them these pictures. We love you and look forward to seeing you up and walking unassisted real soon. Maybe you could do a video for us and have your parents send it. We love you. Tell Mom and Dad that they deserve a small slice of the credit, because they raised not 1, but 3 great kids. Keep smiling.
Love, the Florida Nutts

Got to love the Mohawk! And yes, a little gel will add the finishing touches. It's awesome to hear & see your progress Spencer, you are proving how incredibly strong you are! You are truly an inspiration. On another note, between this blog and Casey J, I am looking forward to some of mom's cooking someday! Keep up the great work.

Wowser!!!! Pretty snazzy!!! So I was looking around online the other day and I saw the perfect addition to your room... Jay and Silent Bob bobble heads!!! Do you already have them? If not let me know. Also can you let Carter and Brittany know that apparently I won a 32 inch stuffed puppy from Build a Bear? Maybe Olivia can pretend to be me and go get it haha Well keep up the good work, talk to you soon!!! Love you :)

Nice do, Spence! Of course if you dyed the mohawk blue it would be even cooler!! :) I showed the girls in the ICU the picture of you walking and they were so excited for you!!

Dude,having a blood clot and stoke is a long way to go just to get your mother to sign off on a Mohawk. If you want your nipples pierced you'll probably need a double amputation, heart attack and spina bifida. Keep rockin

Hi Spencer,
Erin was so mad that she missed your call. She'll be keeping her phone in hand from now on. I love your new look. When you get home, you should let Erin die it candy apple red, like hers. She redid it this afternoon and I loooove the bright color. I'm sure you'll see it this weekend. Please call again. We'd love to talk to you. Erin is at soccer practice, and soon to return. Brittany is working until 9 at your favorite place. I was so excited to hear about you taking a walk today. You're amazing inside and out. Keep up the good work. Can't wait til you get back to Taunton. Love, Mrs. O'Gara
