Thursday Evening, June 21st

Late night blog tonight, approx. 10:00pm and Allie has finally quited down. I am spending the night at the hospital with her while Nancy finally gets to go home for the evening - a well deserved break, although she will probably go home and clean and then do laundry and then get Matt packed for camp. He is leaving Monday for a month - good for him. Allie is doing so well, while she is still out there for lack of better words, she is doing very well with all of her therapies and continues to do well and progress each and every day. I got here just before 3:00 today and had Allie since then. She proceeded to walk my legs off as she can not stay in one place for more than a moment and she gets fixated on things and won;t quit. First I whelled her up and down the hallway, then took her outside and then back and forth inside the hospital including the Starbucks - I told her there was one in the hospital and she had to visit it - she didn;twant anthing but she wanted to visit, then I pushed her another 4 or 5 miles, tried to get her to eat dinner - then back on the road until about 9:30. During our outing I took Allie back up to the 4th floor ICY where she spent her first few weeks (in a coma) and the nurses there all gathered around and celebrated her coming to visit. They were amazed and laughed at how well she was doing and some of the jokes she was makeing. They are not really jokes just the funny ways she would answer some questions. We think she's awesome. Tomorrow she has another full day so I am glad she is finally resting and now that she is, I will also. Be back tomorrow. Have a great night. Allie's Dad
