Wednesday Evening, September 12th

Wow! What an overwhelming show of support and love from everyone around the world Allie and for our family. You'ze guys (hey I still have a little NY n me) are what has made this recovery doable.

Kind of a quit day. I am still at work and have lived vicariously through the phone lines today but have been assurred that everyone is having a good day - a bit snippy today but that's OK. She has been a litle snippy for the past few days, not a lot but noticeable at times.

AFter thinking that we would have to wait many weeks to get her an appointment with the new neurology group an appointment opened up on Monday - imagine that? Universe at work? ANyhow it is not with the doctor we had hoped to see in the group (at least not yet - ha ha) but we are grateful to get in so quickly. The next few days are just therapy appointments and doctors but such is life for the next few months. It good getting the time alone in the car and just hearing her sing to songs again.

The pool table came today so I guess tonight is game night and hopefully every day will be. It's wierd that you can go through your whole life just existing and not really being happy when you can just turn the happy switch on - it's hard and has to be practiced but it can be done. Everyday just runs into the next and you can get so tired but really, it can all be over tomorrow so let's go home and have fun today.

Love you all.
Allie's Dad

Nice picture!

Wonderful to hear that all of you guys are still doing so well, and that you're really sticking together as a family. I have been reading the blog and praying, but quietly in the background (very busy with work over the summer), but just wanted to let you know that you are very much still in my prayers, and I am still thinking of all of you every day.

Much love to all of you, jo
