What another great weekend of progress and improvements for our Laura. Friday was one of Laura’s best therapy days or perhaps the best to date. She was increasingly consistent in her head movements to command, both to the right and left sides. Laura’s left eye has been displaying drastic improvement. That eye has been moving more and more back to the center and out of the corner. The rest of the weekend continued validating what we have known since the beginning, Laura is healing and struggling her way back into our lives.

We completely understand that this is a long, slow, and grueling process. We oftentimes wonder why someone so loving, caring, and harmless is forced to overcome such a difficult and life altering event. Essentially, life is not easy or fair. Laura represents that reality. Everyone faces difficulties, maybe not to Laura’s extent, but challenging nonetheless. Being inspired by Laura’s persistence can help us to deal with the realities of our own life challenges. We keep thinking back to the special verse explaining that God will never give you more than you can handle. Obviously, he knows that we can handle our problems. More importantly, he knows that Laura can overcome hers. What a joy it is to watch this miracle unfold before our very eyes.

At the beginning of this difficult journey moments after Laura’s accident, many of us questioned what we would have to deal with and how we could do it. We didn’t know if we had the strength or courage to get through. A gradual, but major change, has taken place throughout this journey. That change has been the knowledge gained through the truth and revelation of the Word. The challenge is to believe first, then see. The reverse of what is natural. Now, we are getting to see the fruits of our beliefs. The reward of healing will come. Keep praying for Laura!

COMMIT YOUR WAY TO THE LORD; TRUST ALSO IN HIM AND HE WILL BRING IT TO PASS (Psalm 37:5)

We love you,
Jeff and Laura Laughlin.
