Thursday

Another day with a lot of progress. Cheryl's feeding tube has been removed and she was on a clear liquid diet today. Plans are to start on food tomorrow. She still hasn't had a Dr. Pepper!(not because she hasn't asked for it!) She did get Sprite and tea but it just wasn't Dr. Pepper. She is asking to get up and walk. The physical therapist came in to see her today and was surprised at how strong she is. They plan to start getting her up tomorrow. Pray that this goes well and she progresses well because they have talked about her going to a nursing home for rehab and she DOES NOT want to. She seems to have a lot of determination to do things so pray that she is able to do what she is asking to do.

Thank you again for your prayers. The doctors are very pleased and surprised with her progress. The problem is that she wants to move along faster than they want her to so she is frustrated and bored. It is so neat to see how God has taken care of her and answered the many prayers on her behalf.
