Coming down the home stetch....

She will be coming home very soon. Her therapy is going really well and there is no sign of infection, just healing. She has been a bit of pain this week but we think it might be from her bones growing. With little ones at home, the same pain is found when they have growth spurts therefore we think that this might be the cause of her pain as well. She is ready to go home and get on with life. Since she can not put weight on her leg, she is learning how to perform daily tasks with the assistance of a walker and a wheelchair. Of course, she still has staples and has been to very careful with them—they are very sensitive. Yesterday was a blue day for her but she had plenty of love around her with all her grands (-children) in the room. It was utter chaos to keep the arguments to a low roar but I think it felt like home to her. We should have a better idea of when and how this week regarding her release and requirements for her injury/therapy. She is moving very well. She gets up and down out of the bed/chair as if she was using both legs. What an inspiration she is to all that she has touched through this event in her life! Thank you to so many for all your well wishes, gifts, and especially your prayers. It is actually those prayers that have kept this situation bearable and helped all see a silver lining to a brighter future. My sister is still in town to attend to my mom along with her babies, my father is working on get their home handicap friendly, and folks (including them) are burnin’ the road up between here and there. Please continue to pray for us all. Like all these types of events, the demands of life begin to call and can overwhelm strong souls.
Thanks for your time and as soon as we have any more updated, I will post...

****DO YOU KNOW JESUS BECAUSE HE KNOWS YOU. God knows every hair on your head (Luke 12:6-8 NIV:Are not five sparrows sold for two pennies[a]? Yet not one of them is forgotten by God. 7Indeed, the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Don't be afraid; you are worth more than many sparrows), and he gave his only son for you John 3:16 KJV-For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.)
