Mom made it to church today! She was beaming! Everyone was so excited to see her. This Sunday was also the official Murphy Family sendoff. We had communion with them, and after the service had a lunchion. We love you Murphys, Godspeed.

 Krista spent the day with Mom after church, I went duck hunting with my Bro's. Mom went back to the Healthcare Center after the service, she was too worn out after visiting to stay for the lunchion. I talked a bit with the nurse's tonight, they will be sad to see Mom go, (Moms a heart theif) but very glad to see her progress. I am confounded every day I look at Mom, and see the work God is doing in her body. God's power and glory are apparent in her speedy recovery, even that her life is spared, shows his grace to us Hebrews 4:15-16, his Power with us Psalm 46:1, and his mercy toward us John 10:27-30.

Two days ago when we were on our way to Lynden to visit Cousin and family, this verse from Hebrews 11 came to my mind:  "out of weakness were made strong."  We stopped at the house to meet Bill before going to the care center, and there was Cynthia sitting in her chair in the living room!  She really enjoyed surprising us!  Cynthia has made amazing progress in the two weeks since our last visit, by the grace of God and hard work!  She continues to glorify God in every circumstance.  Thanks to all of you who have prayed for my beloved cousin, and for all the practical ways you have loved and cared for her and her family.  That makes it easier for me to go home again. This morning when I came to her room, Cynthia was sitting on the bed, but all of the bedding was in a pile on the floor!  She had not had clean bedding in five days, and had taken charge of the situation!  Cynthia worked on her arm and hand today, and is getting more movement and strength.  Her speech is gradually improving as well.  She will continue therapy 3 times a week as an outpatient for at least a few weeks.  Monday is her Homecoming Day, and she is so excited to get there!  Praise the Lord for the wonderful things He is doing!

When the cousins arrived today, we brought Mom home to suprise them, they thought that she would be at CHCC. They were shocked to see her in her own home. After that we brought her back to CHCC.

Today we had a therapist visit our home (with mom) to see if we need to modify our home for mom to move in again. Dad had already modified the shower to be more user friendly. It looks like we wont even need a hospital bed, she is so mobile now and has such good balance, bed wont be an issue. Today we started a game of Scrabble, and she crushed me for the first half, I got one lucky 50 point score, that put me 10 points ahead. But she is able to focus enough to play a killer game. Will post results of game after its over (as an update to this post) she will probably crush me.

After the therapists visit to our house, we are tenatively planning her homecoming on monday. I heard our cousins the Shorts are en route to our house and will arrive Thursday (tomorrow).

Score: 268 to 233 Adam's favor.
