Do any of you have prayer requests??

Sorry, but we got another update this morning. Her husband was pleasantly surprised when he went into the ICU this morning. She is sitting up in a chair, is able to talk about finances and sign forms and engage in conversations with vistors. And she was able to lift her left hand up to touch his face. (happy tears!)
She said her goal is to be walking at the NAMM show (a music conference we always attend with them) in January. This brought on the tears for me big time. I was so bummed that they would not be able to attend this year. She had already reserved a suite for us to share and everything. Now I am so excited and just so happy!

There is still a long road ahead, but she seems to be okay in the cognitive aspect of things. Her long term memory is great, however, her short term memory is a little fuzzy. When she is able to engage 3 hours of rehab they will move her to a more intensive rehab facility. She still tires easily, as you would expect.

Thank you so much to anyone and everyone. Even if all you did was read this and just give out a thought.

This is excellent news. I hope that everything will continue to go well for her.

Thanks Tracey.
Well in the update today there was sad news. She is still going great, but we just learned that her mother passed away the same day she had her surgery. They waited to tell her until she was stable enough to take the news. Her husband said she took it well and will use the anger she feels about that toward her own recovery. Her mother was not a good therapy/rehab patient and didn't do what she should. Meredith will not do that in her own recovery.
She has a new goal. They have tickets to a concert of some kind on Dec. 9th. She is determined to go to that event.

My friend Meredith got to come home last weekend (the 19th). We have not been to visit her yet because Bruce has been sick for a week.

Thanks for all the thoughts!

YAY! Though it is so sad about her Mom.

I have a prayer request, please!! I had a job interview today for a position as an RVT (registered veterinary techician). It's at a brand spanking new hospital and its a really great company and a great location. I'm really hoping I get the job, all I want to do is work with animals and improve my skills to help them! So prayers would be soo very appreciated! Thanks guys! I'm supposed to hear back from the interviewer next Friday.... eeek!

That sounds like a great opportunity. Prayers from here to you, along with crossed fingers and paws too. Boy - wouldn't that be a great Christmas present??? Good luck!
