Vicki continues to make small steps towards improvement each day. Last night they started weaning her off of the ventilator. She was able to handle it on her own for about an hour, but then needed to be put back on. They did the same thing this morning and she did good for about an hour that time as well. She seems to be more alert during the day. Each time she awakens she is confused about where she is and how she got there. She is very child-like (as Holly puts it). The medication is causing the confusion; however, we’ve been told that there should be no long-term affects regarding her memory. Her labs looked good as of this morning so we are continuing to pray that her surgery will take place tomorrow.
The family continues to gain strength from your prayers. There is still such a long road ahead – thank you so very much for your love and support.

Vic, It's me...the only sis that hasn't left any kind of comment yet. Your accident has effected me very different than the rest of our siblings. Everyday I look at Anna I am reminded of the strength you offered to me throughout my pregnancy with her (among many other times in my life). Even how you stood by my side through her labor and delivery. During my stay at the hospital you left my side only briefly to spend time with your wonderful husband one time. You were there for me day and night until they released me. Through all the ups and downs...the tears and all my fears. I wish I could be there for you like that right now. I am doing my best to help at home with the baby and visit when I can. I plan to be an even bigger help when you come home. My promptings to leave this comment is only so that you will have it when you are well enough to read it. You know I love you. The days are long without hearing your uplifting advice. Let's get you HOME! I love you!!

You have never judged me and have always accepeted me for who I am good or bad. I know I am not very good with words never have been, always know I love you , you are like a second mom to me . When you come home I promise I will be around more. I will be there in any way to help .
