Journal entry by Abby Ristow —
Saw Jonah again today and he was more alert and awake than yesterday. Seems to be trying to communicate with his eyes. He will blink when you tell him something or ask a question. When we first got there the nurse was trying to get him to move his fingers and toes but said he wasn't doing it. I was holding his left hand talking to him and he gripped my hand. I asked him to wiggle his fingers and he started to. He seems to be getting very good at moving his thumb although it takes a minute or so for him to initially do it after you ask, but then if you ask again he does it immediately. Seems to be making progress. Continuing to pray for him.
