We'll stay positive for you how's that. You do the worrying and we'll cheer you and Spencer on. He is going to get through this. He has to. He is young and strong.

Hang on in there Mom! You are doing a great job. I think the nurses have to be pretty non committal until a doctor says how things are going.
Have you been able to get any rest?
Continued good vibes for Spencer's recovery.

Continued prayers for Spencer.
Keep up the optimism. I'm sure you talking to him and being there for him can only do him good.

They kicked me out while they bathe him and do some personal care things with him.
I haven't got much rest but I did get a hotel so I won't have that 2 hr drive tonight.
I just want to tell you all a bit more about my precious Spencer and yes I know we all think our kids are precious lol.
He truly has the kindest heart of anyone I've ever met. In 22 years I have never heard him say a bad word about anyone.
He always has a smile on his face and always tries to make sure everyone is happy. He's my sensitive boy for sure.
He's had a life time of health issues and has been in a wheelchair his whole life but he never acts bitter or asks why me.
No matter where we go whether it's around our small town or when we go to the city people gravitate to him and either he knows everyone or complete strangers will just come up and talk to him. I'm sure it's the light that shines from him that makes people gravitate towards him.
He loves his 3 dogs, wrestling and the calgary flames hockey are his passions. He loves having a beer and having a fire and roasting hotdogs on a Friday night with his dad.
He is going to be filmed on a hunting show this fall and is so excited about it.
I just wanted you to know more about Spencer as you lift him up in prayers and send good thoughts his way.
Your messages and posts have really helped me a lot I'm just so grateful for you all!

Ask him funny questions and see if he will respond. Ask him crazy things like what's his 3rd favourite dinosaur and see him roll his eyes or squeeze your hand or something. Ask him about his Grade 5 teacher whatever his/her name was. Ask him about whether he liked or hated cooking class in Grade 8. It's just an idea I had to generate a response.

Funny how you don't really know someone, but their story touches you heart. Haven't been able to get you or Spencer out of my head all night. First place I headed this AM was here to see if there had been any improvement.
Your update seems positive, i'm praying he continues to respond to you today. Glad you got a hotel nearby so you can get some rest.

Heading to hospital now. Last night was rough. The nurse came in after I had told her about Spencer opening his eyes when I asked him and she saw I was upset I said I know you didn't see it but he really did keep them opened for awhile i and I wasn't yelling or doing a pain stimulus. That has been the only way previously they have seen him open his eyes.
She said she didn't doubt what I saw it is just that she or adr needs to see it. She did say that his neurological exams are improving.
I hoped that staying here at at hotel would help with my sleep but they put me right beside the free breakfast room so by 7 am I was up. I don't really sleep anyways how can I but I do find by evening I'm spent struggling with my emotions more because of fatigue. It's a small cross to bear in comparison and I'm stronger then I think.
Thanks seems inappropriate for all your love and support and concern but do know that I really do appreciate all your posts and messages and I read every single one several times a day! I wish I could respond to each and everyone.
I really believe in the power of prayer!

Spencer sounds like an absolutely wonderful person, and I'm glad you heard his neurological signs are improving, not to mention the "nothing concerning" MRI. That certainly supports what you and your family have been seeing too with his responses. I am hopeful he will be awake soon, or the doctors figure out what adjustments they need to make so he can wake up (like the spinal fluid they were adjusting). Continuing to send positive healing thoughts, and moral support for you! May today be a great day!
