Funny things
Things were harder for John this morning, but he was so good yesterday his brain probably needs a rest to consolidate. I have continued to read the stroke book and the author said when her left side of the brain was damaged she lost all that continual chatter that goes on in her head head, I asked John and he said there was no chatter in his head, but when I asked Ben he said he always speaks when he thinks, he has to write in his head to think in his head, he always prays out loud or at least moving his lips, I think in my head all the time and almost always pray silently in my head. Another difference in John is that he doesn't really care about theological differences anymore he says they are not important and he can't remember the srguments for and against anyway. We were joking this morning, I asked John what the five points of calvinism were and he after a few minutes said TURNIP, we all laughed. I said jokingly imagine your preaching from now on, we must all love each other but don't forget about your TURNIPS, and Ben chipped in with and watch out for those arminian parsnips.
John has been doing audioblocks this morning,it seems his maths ability is unaffected which is a real blessing. What is obvious is that he is learning quickly, but there are mental blocks with colour and certain activities, but overall he is amazing, the final thing in audioblock is to crumple paper in both hands at once, this has just finished with everyone throwing the balls of paper at one another which is not strictly speaking part of the programme:)
