From Teresa... Well, Wed. afternoon Tami practiced getting in and out of a car. Then Thurs. after all the therapies Travis (her big brother) came out from Grand Junction, Co. with his wife Becky and their two kids Magnolia (Maggie , 4 years old) and Giacomo (Giac, pronounced Jack , 1 1/2 years old). Both Tami and I were on pins and needles waiting for them to arrive! Seeing the kids helped take the edge off missing her girls, but it's all she can think about these days. Anyway... Grandma Ann made it up too and then later that night Logan (her younger brother) showed up. We all (Tami included) went down to the hospital cafiteria for some food. It was nice.
On Friday Tami walked 140 feet down the hall without sitting to rest! Then she was cleared for an outing and got to go to the Noodles and Company resturant for lunch. I went with her and Travis and family and Grandma Ann met us there. The food was great and we all had a good time. Tami was tired when we got back, but said she liked it. Later in the day she had another "Modified Barium Swallow Test" and passed it with flying colors. The speech theripist said she has one of the cleanest and prettiest swallows she has ever seen. So now she is cleared to eat and drink anything she wants. YEAH! Travis immideately went downstairs and got her a milkshake. The left about 4:00 pm. to see Becky's mom and my parents in Vernal on their way home. (today is Travis' 29th birthday) Happy Birthday! We love you!
This morning Tami walked about 200 feet and is getting stronger every day. We are still hoping for something out of her "Nemo Fin"( Left arm. ) Anyway more later... Teresa.
