Samuel reaches another Milestone today…… HE TURNS 6 !!!!…….despite spending four of the past six weeks in hospital fighting off respiratory infections and associated complications he is home again to celebrate his birthday!
To celebrate his reaching this milestone Samuel hosted a “fancy dress” bowling outing…. and can he bowl it…. YES he can, in fact it seems like there is nothing our little Bob the builder is not capable of. Samuel is an experienced bowler, as going bowling has featured in his school outing program. and as you can see he took his dad “prisoner” for the event!
Samuel applied great effort, lifting his arm, making contact with the ball and pushing with enough force to cause it roll down the ramp!
Samuels bowling experience obviously shows as he wiped the floor with the rest of us!
Little victories like Samuel getting out of hospital and being able to take him bowling are great milestones and a real reminder that despite the difficulties that near drowning survivors experience, they are still full of fight and bring great joy to their families!
Congratulations Samuel, and here is hoping for many more Birthdays!
