On The Road Again

The Medical Good Faith Act is on the road again.  I found out today that a schedule change moved our bill up on the schedule.  It was expected to be voted on by the Michigan Senate next week, but today they decided to move it up and voted on it today.  This vote was to reaffirm the language which was changed in the House vote.  Well, the Senate voted 36-0 (2 absent senators) to pass the bill and put it on the road to the governor's office for his signature.  This could happen as early as next week.  We are trying to arrange a photo op with Governor Snyder so we can use the picture for publicity purposes so pray that we have favor with this.  The only problem is my work schedule next week.  We have a pastor luncheon at work which is a gigantic station event and will own my week until Friday. 

Faith is sitting on my lap jabbering as I type this.  She thinks that she is helping me type with her hands resting on my hands as I type.  Reminds me of a note Rick Santorum sent to me saying that Bella was doing the identical thing.  It always amazes me how many things these T18 children do the same.  She really thinks that she is being funny right now smacking the computer and keeps clapping for herself.  In fact, she has now messed up my computer so it isn't typing correctly....this child.  Below is the link with the bill language and status....

Jesi Smith on Janet Mefferd Show

Jesi was interviewed today by Janet Mefferd on her national Christian radio program.  This program is syndicated by Salem Communications, the company that I work for.  She is out of Dallas and broadcasts on stations across the country.  It was live during the first hour of her show at 1:30pm central time and was broadcast on Faith Talk 1500, my station, at 5:30pm.  The first thing you will hear is a promo that ran overnight and throughout the day on Faith Talk 1500 in Detroit.  This promo was also sent to her stations across the country.  Then the interview plays.  Janet also promoted her interview with Jesi on the front page of her website.

On a totally separate note, Faith has been feeling much better.  When we were doing a high calorie diet, we gave her coconut oil or olive oil.  Jesi decided to include olive oil in her feedings again.  She started very recently and since then Faith seems to have much easier bowel movements.  In fact, her energy level has increased dramatically as well.  She was jumping up and down in her stander the other night.  I should have gotten video of her.  We will see if this continues to work.  The oil never had this effect before, but with the different food, maybe the oil is providing a new result.  We will keep a close watch, but it will make me wish that we had given her the oil sooner if it continues to help her bowels work better.
