I just wanted to apologize to everyone for not updating sooner.....as you can imagine things have been a little hectic. Mom is doing really well. She continues to improve everyday. The biggest thing today was getting her up to a wheelchair and taking her outside for the first time in 8 weeks!!! It wasn't easy, but it was definitely worth it. That is what the pictures are from. She said it felt really good. She wasn't able to tolerate it for very long, but I am sure that each time we are able to do it, she will tolerate it better.
We've had lots of things to keep us busy between home health, physical therapy, speech therapy. It seems like there is something going on constantly....not to mention grandkids running around everywhere! I think that is one of the things Mom has enjoyed the most. Her face just lights up when the kids come in or when she hears them playing throughout the house. She wants to be part of all the action.
As for her health, everything seems to be doing really well. All the nurses, etc. who have come in to see her are very surprised at how well she looks and is doing. Her memory is still not good, but getting a little better everyday. We still have a long journey ahead, but it will be worth every step. I really appreciate everyone still being so concerned about her and keeping her in your thoughts and prayers. It really means a lot. We love you!
Love,
Holly

Yeah!I knew her grandchildren would be the trick in getting her better faster! Looking at these pictures makes me so happy and helps me to remember never to take for granted the fact that I can enjoy a sunny day and run and play with my kids. Thank you , Holly for the updates and pictures. I love them! I am so thankful for our Heavenly Father who hears and answers prayers. I am especially grateful he heard and answered all the prayers for Vicki. I love you all so much!
