Big News

The news today consists of the following:
1. Judy is continuing progress, today she walked with a regular walker even farther than yesterday.
2. She is eating all her meals. They consist of juices and mush. The tube feed has been stopped for now. She is also taking all medication orally.
3. She was notified that GF Strong has a bed available for her on Tuesday, April 14. This is much quicker that we expected. She will be flown down on a medavac flight.
4. Her pain continues to decrease. Her dose is currently about 1/4 of what it was before. I believe soon we will she that she can get by on tylenol.
5. There is no significant change with her eyesight.

When friends of ours were preparing to visit Judy with their 2 1/2 year old, they informed their daughter that Judy had an eye patch (like a pirate). The question in response was "does she have a parrot"?

Please continue to pray for wisdom for Judy, myself, and the boys as healing takes place and decisions are made.

  1. Happy Easter. I hope its a good one for you. Although as food goes, hospital food is better than no food at all.

    I'm glad to read that Aunt Judy is progressively getting better.

  2. This is terrific news! I'm so glad to hear of your continuous progress. GF Strong will pose lots more challenges and opportunities. You'll be even more amazed at how quickly improvements can happen. Will be praying for your stamina and endurance along with joy and peace. Hugs :) Sherry Breck
