He does want to raise awareness. And if the stem cells kick in I am sure he will be doing better. He just isn't too good about keeping up with e-mail. I did send him a note and asked him to contact you. At the very least, I can keep you all updated as he and I talk at work or if he puts up an update that has significant progress. Michael has been laughing for a while but it is random. He does it without external stimulation. I like to think he has some memories and those make him laugh at odd times and hopefully he will be able to tell Dave about them one day. I have to have some faith. Dave did say that his laughter lately has changed and it sounds more like the old Michael. A step forward I hope. I will keep you updated. I didn't mean to sound negative before. I just know Dave is so tired he doesn't do much more than is absolutely necessary these days.
