Adam posting from Moms bedside:

I stayed all night with Mom last night, and Dad relieved me at 8:45 am, so I could attend church and take a nap. I got about 4 hours of sleep in the hospital, so I took a nap after church to be able to stay with her tonight.

They tell me that by Friday, she will need to be moved from hospital, to a therapy specialist or taken home. We will take her home; I know she believes in family care over assisted living facilities. If we have to hire a nurse, so be it. But we want Mom at home. We will have to get a hospital bed, therapist, and all kinds of other details worked out before Friday.

Mrs. Weese has been a great counselor; she has a lot of experience that we can draw on when it comes to caring for people. Thanks Mrs. Weese!

Mom can smile with the right side of her lips now! She did more walking today than she has done yet. She has such a sweet spirit, she has made an impact on the nurses. The hospital seems quieter tonight, and that's a blessing, last night a patent in the neighboring have got ward was hacking and coughing all night long. I ended up praying for him to be healed so Mom and I can rest. And he is doing better tonight too Lol.

  1. Rejoicing along with you knowing your mom has a full smile. Praise the Lord!! Thank you so much for the pictures, they help since I am unable to be there. Wow I can't believe she is able to leave the hospital so soon! I'd like to hear about how your Dad is holding up, please let him know we think of him a lot and can't imagine what he is going through.
    Love to all!
