I went to see Vicki last night for about an hour and a half. She was so alert, yet a little confused. She seems to think she has a baby and is very concerned about it. She wants to know if we're taking care of it and if it's sleeping. She's taken care of children all of her life so I guess it's a natural thing for her to always be worried about one. :)
Lucas and Holly were with her when I got there and Randy (Vicki's brother) came shortly thereafter. When I entered the room she knew who I was. After visiting for a bit she looked at me and said, "Come here." I came close and she said, "I want a hug." I put my cheek to hers and she kissed my face. When I stood back up she said, "I want more." I said, "Do you want more to drink?" She said, "No, I want another hug." I could have hugged her all night!
I just spoke with Holly - she and Randy had the night-shift. Vicki had a good night, but only slept a few hours. Her labs continue to look good. They may perform surgery next week sometime to repair more of her injuries. We'll keep you posted on that. Aaron returned early this morning and remains by Vicki's side.

Hi Vicki,
It's Ericka Robinson (actually I've been a Gillis now for about 3 years) but will always be a Robinson on the inside =) But anyway I just wanted you to know that me and my family are praying for you all the time. I know its been a long time since we've seen each other but time doesn't matter. I can't imagine what Holly and the others are going thru because I know Vicki you mean so much to them. You are so much like my mom........meaning you are the ROCK that holds your family together. You have to stay strong and focused because your family needs you here. You are a beautiful human being who was always very kind and sweet to me when I was in your home after tagging along with Holly to hang out and made me feel a part of the "extended" Norris family. My parents send along there hope for you to get better and me and my husband (who I hope one day to introduce you to) continue to pray for you and Aaron and the rest of the family. I just really wanted to let you know that you were on my mind and in my heart. You are a blessing to everyone but most importantly your family. This to shall pass Vicki and I hope to see your smiling face with your "clan" gathered around you very soon. Be well.
All my Love,
Ericka
