Trina

Hi! My name is Trina, and I'm one of Micah's many volunteers. I live in Ladera Ranch, and am the mom of eight kids. Our Big Happy Family

I just want to say that Micah is very special to me and has become a BIG part of my life. I look forward to Wednesdays because that is my patterning time with him! (if only we lived closer...I'd be there everyday to help!)

Patterning is very familiar to me because it's the same program that we did on our daughter, Audriana, back in 1997 after her brain injury. We did this for almost three years with her, so I think I can safely say that I am an expert patterner!

I admire Stephanie for taking on this very demanding, time-consuming intensive program. I truly think it is the hardest therapy to carry out, as it requires many, many hours a day to complete. Not many mothers are up for the committment it takes -- believe me, I've met many who turned down the chance to do this program on their child because they simply didn't think they could do it each and everyday. My heart goes out to those kids, because who knows how much they would have improved if given this chance? Micah is so very lucky to have a mom like Stephanie, and the support of her family to help.

I get so much joy from just holding Micah and hearing him make cooing sounds. I love to see him smile. I love when he throws his head back in excitement. I enjoy watching him interact with my kids when they come with me to pattern. And I love those fat feet of his :)

Micah is in my daily thoughts and prayers. I know God will heal Micah, I just don't know how long it will take. I do know that everyone is doing all that they can to give him the best chance in life. And I know that Micah has touched the lives of all those who have met him.

I love you Micah Lee... very much! God bless you, sweet boy! I'll see you on Wednesday!
