Thank you! Thank you for your posts, your prayers, your notes, words of encouragement, gifts, and love during this trying time for me and my family. It has been just a bit over 4 weeks since my accident. The time has truly flown by - perhaps because there are more than a few days I simply can't remember.
We have so much to be thankful for as God has been faithful to carry us, protect us, and heal me. Yes, there are days where the progress seems difficult to see - but I know God is healing me.
I have been anxious to give you an update, but I must keep it brief since I am typing with one hand. Here goes - top down
My Jaw has been freed! Tuesday the docs cut the bands and are giving me a week to eat stuff a liitle closer to food - I am still not allowed to chew untill next appt.
Ribs: are healing slowly - still no real funny jokes
Arm: all stitches are finally out! There is still no feeling in my hand and very little movement, but, due to my great therapist, I really am improving. I trust every stretch, every splint, and the torturous excercises are helping bring back use.
Leg: My knee has been diagnosed with a minor fracture and not so minor ligament tear. We will find out more next week.
Meanwhile- I limp around with a cage-like device, good for scaring the kiddies!
Please continue to pray for me and my family. We will give up-dates soon.
p.s. Mary Karen is doing great, not quite as fearful about car rides, and she has shown such maturity in the past weeks-we are proud of her.
