Hello all! Silas is still doing really well!
God is so very good. And Silas sees that completely. He sees how God is using his life and his testimony and this trial. He is leaning on the everlasting arms of his Heavenly Father.
This is a trial. This is hard. For Silas, it is hard to be so weak and so tired and so limited. He knows it is just a season, and he is so very thankful for that, but it’s still hard.
Some days are more difficult than others. As his parents, Ryan and I are trying to help Silas talk about his feelings while still not despairing. While still trusting the Lord.
We are so thankful for this amazing boy. My heart absolutely leaps every time he smiles or laughs or jokes. He is an absolute treasure.
Please pray for 100% healing for Silas. Please pray for endurance and strength and comfort and peace and thankfulness in his heart. Please pray that he will love God deeper and wider than ever before.
Please pray for Ryan and I as we parent Silas through this. Please pray that we will be students of him and quickly identify his needs, even when he can’t express them. Please pray for us as we parent our other 4 children through this time. Our hearts desire is to point all of our children to Christ.
If you have not read Si’s testimony, which he shared at his baptism just 2 weeks before the accident, here it is…

Have an alarm set. Silas-speaking, seeing, strength.
Praying these things in the physical and spiritual realm. Great picture!!
