mike aitken [appreciation]
Ok so I have become somewhat obsessed with Google’s RSS Reader, aptly called Reader. It allows me to subscribe to blogs and as they make new posts, it shows them and allows me to read them. No big deal, right? Well, what IS cool is that it allows me to make a bookmark that will link me to the next newest post. So all I have to do is click it and it will automatically bring up whatever blog/site has the newest content.
That brings me to Mike Aitken. As per the norm for his family, they posted a new blog up today that said:
Mike is getting ready for Christmas and continuing to work hard in therapy. The dexterity in his right hand has improved greatly and he’s back buttoning up his little boy Owens clothes for him. It’s great to see Mike able to get back to some of these simple tasks that we all take for granted.Mike also continues to work on his core muscles and the muscles in his right leg to further eliminate the limp he was left with after the accident. He’s wrapping things up in speech therapy which focuses on helping with memory, problem solving, orientation, language and communication. Mike has come a long way in just 2 months and is now focusing on strengthening his voice and sounding more like he did before the accident. He’s a fighter and it’s been amazing to watch how quickly he has recovered from such a devastating injury.Happy Holidays
Man, that is probably some of the best news you can get at the holiday season!
And then later I was at Odyssey’s site (again from a post that Reader pulled up for me), and on their little t.v. was this:


This just shows how good and how smooth the guy is. This is my kind of BMX, I don’t care, style over tricks all day SON!
