Spencer today played a series of games with all the kids on the floor. Not sure who won or lost but Spence got Voted off the Floor and a Get Out of Jail Free Card. What does this mean?? As long as everything goes well (weather,medically etc.) he will go outside tomorrow for the first time in 48 days. The plan is for him to go to the mall in Cambridge. He heard there is a Apple computer store in the mall so he may jump right out of that wheelchair.
A couple of firsts today. Spence was able to move his elbow and 2 fingers today. He did this during therapy. The therapist must know how to relax certain muscles and stimulate others to get this movement.
Slowly we are getting there! Keep up the good work to everyone!

Hey Spence!
oh that is so great, I hope you make it outside today- supposed to be nice out. Computer store sound fun, I love that stuff. Great news about progress in therapy too- keep it moving!
Love, the Dunderale fam :O)
Hi Spence, Was visiting the gang at Friedman today and was informed about your stroke. Boy, was I shocked. It must have been a lot worse for your family and friend.
When you get a chance , email me and tell me all you and what you are doing. Get well.
Love, Mrs. Martin (your 8th grade Math teacher)

Spence,
Cambridge Mall....Did you forget it's St.Pat's weekend. Even though I'm old enough to be your Gram (I should be so lucky) I can still make a call or two and arrange for an ID to be delivered to you. JUST A THOUGHT!!!!!
lOVE YOU KIDDO,
Mary, Mary
Spence, keep up the good work. It's been too long since my last post, so long that Ted had to resort to writing in Latin because neither Sarah or myself gave him any new material to make fun of. Just kidding, nice touch Ted.
I think Melina has kicked her cold and I'm going to try to bring her by on Sunday. See you soon.

That is so awesome! Way to go Spencer! Keep it up ok? I hope you enjoyed your day out! Hope to see ya soon!!

Oh Spencer I am so glad to hear all this good news! Enjoy your day out! Keep up the good work & I wish you well!! <3 Brittany
You crazy man with the red hair you! I hope you make the best of your mall experience and have some fun in the fresh air that you get from the car to the mall! I also hope you enjoy the short bus! lol I must say you're new bling is quite impressive I can't wait for you to see the new and improved Spencey Cent medallion. I am yet to find a chain but as your "go to girl" I am gonna get on that! Your wrapping is going to be much more impressive once you have your new bling! Now me and BB will just have to figure out a way to pimp out the new "Toyota"...Tell everyone Hi and I'll see you soon!

Hi Spence,
Ahhh ... you'll retail therapy is the true road to recovery ... especially at a Mac store in a good mall. The Queen of Retail Therapy knows this all too well, just ask you Mom!
Please know that a number of us in the Bridgewater State College community hold you in our daily thoughts and prayers. Your Mom makes a very large and equally positive impression with people, no matter how long or short her stay.
And judging from the postings, you have the same gift, too, Spence. You can see it through the comments of your therapists and support of your family and friends.
Hugs and kisses to you, your Mom and Dad.
Love,
Eva
P.S. Don't listen to a certain individual who we both know (initials are MB). That would be the same person who gives you advice about bars, martinis, St. Paddy's Day, and anything that's a combustible liquid. Sha, sha ... a true corruption of the youth of America during the Lenten season of all things!
superspence, you must have been so happy to get a little fresh air today. [i know i would be] keep up the amazing effort in everything you do up there at spaulding and know i'll always be with you every step of the way [even if they're not so graceful.] you're my hero! i love you.

ps.. did you see the banner i put up on your phone? i saw it on the bed yesterday and went a little a.d.d. ;D
You haven't been out in 48 days here is what you missed: Rain, snow, cold, sleet, rain, cold, rain, sleet, cold. Yeah, you haven't missed much. Went to the Apple store at Providence Place. It was a dark, shining beacon in a dark forest. Like Rivendell. Little elves came out with their i-pods and i-macs and i-phones and they danced around leaving a trail of magic dust. I get chills thinking about it.
Rock on
Uncle Ted
