Monday, Monday


Good Morning, Everyone! Yes it is Monday. This is Cindy's 10th day at CMC. All the IVs are gone. The dressing is off the surgical site, and the drain is out. Physical therapy has been this morning. Cindy sat on the side of the bed with only limited assistance, stood and sat 3 times, completed some exercieses, and then with a walker and physical therapy assist walked out of the room, down the hall to the next room, and back. Though it required a lot of effort, and tired her significantly, nevertheless it was substantial progress. Dr. Coric, the neurosurgeon has been this morning, and believes that things are progressing well. Cindy now has her sights set on moving from the hospital to rehab, possibly as early as tomorrow, but we are not sure at this point, and will just have to see. We are praising the Lord for the success of her surgery, her progress thus far, for her continued improvement, and strength and endurance for the challenges ahead. We are so thankful for all of you, our prayer partners. You continue to stand with us in prayer and petition. God is Good!

Another picture, yeah! We love to see your smiling face. I have been so happy to read of your progress! It was amazing that my father-in-law ended up on the same floor as you! It meant a lot to me that they could visit you "for me". I think Dennis comes home today. Trevor and I enjoyed our weekend in Charleston...went by fast. Trevor was back at work today and I will be tomrrow. I look forward to more posts from you both and pray you get to rehab soon...where will that be? Lots of love, Maria

Will still pray for you and Cindy. Just keep believing the One Who has brought her this far. He loves us too much to forsake us, or give us one trial too much.
