Six weeks ago at this time we were sitting at home watching TV when the call came in that Allie had been in a serious accident and here we are today with the miracle girl on the mend.
I was not at the hospital today however I heard that Allie did great in her therapies and each of her therapists said she is continuing to improve and her focus time is getting longer. Nancy has spent a long time here with ALlie and needed some time off so I will be spending the night in the hospital tonight. Allie is about asleep so it is becoming quiet time - time for a cup of green tea and some television.
Tomorrow she will be getting the staples out of her head incision which is great, her hair is growing in really well and it will then be able to cover the scar over which is huge because she is becoming more and more aware of the cut on her head and it is getting her upset. This will be a huge step physically and psycologically for her and all of us.
Probably about 3 more weeks here and then it's back home and back to a normal recovery in a familiar surroundings. Can't believe what faith, good doctors and nurses, a strong will and alot of prayers can accomplish in as little as six weeks.
T-Shirts and bracelets will be in tomorrow and will begin being sent out on Wednesday.
God Bless You All
