Nightly Report

Another good resting day today. We brought in her iPod with some good music, and spent some time reading to her. (Harry Potter was the book of choice today.) The nurses say no one really knows how much people are aware of, but we figure it can't hurt!

We did have one minor (good!) change today. She is no longer receiving drugs to keep her heart rate up. That is a great sign, because it means she is strong enough to keep her heart rate up on her own.

We're inching toward recovery, one baby step at a time.

  9. Judi, Steve, and Jessica,

    Judi, you are in our prayers every day. We know God is watching over you. We are praying for you all.

    Jessica, thanks for the news and this blog. You are a blessing to all of us who are concerned. We know it's got to be tough keeping up with us when your heart and mind are focused on your Mom. Thanks.

    Steve, hang in there. You're where you need to be. You're a good man. Judi's lucky to have you there to watch over her. If there's anything you need... you won't have to ask twice.

    God Bless you,

    Pat & Susan Toohey

  10. Glad that things are moving along, fast or slow it doesn't matter, but still in the right direction. I think music is such a great idea and something so familiar when she probably has no clue what the last week has held for her. Thank you for keeping us posted and like everyone said, make sure that you guys are taking care of yourselves as well. We're always thinking of you and your mom and dad.
