THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THE UPDATE ON JUDE. I WAS OUT OF TOWN ALL LAST WEEK SO I WASN'T ABLE TO CHECK MY E-MAILS. I GOT BACK LAST NIGHT AND THE FIRST THING I DID WAS GO ON MY E-MAIL. I AM SO HAPPY SHE IS DOING SO WELL. I HOPE AND PRAY IT WILL CONTINUE. KEEP US INFORMED AND LET US KNOW WHEN SHE IS ABLE TO CHECK HER E-MAILS.
AS I SAID I WAS OUT OF TOWN AND IT WAS THE FIRST TIME I WAS AWAY FROM HOME SINCE TM CAME TO STAY. I WAS VERY NERVIOUS BUT EVERYTHING WORKED OUT. MY DAUGHTER AND MY 2 GRANDDAUGHTERS AND I WENT TO THE MALL OF AMERICA FOR THEIR SPRING BREAK. I AM ABLE TO WALK WITH A WALKER BUT THERE WAS NO WAY I WOULDD WALK THE MALL. SOMETIME AGO, I DECIDED TO PURCHASE AN ELECTRIC SCOOTER AND IT WAS WONDERFUL. I FELT LIKE A HUMAN AGAIN. NOW I AM WAITING TO SEE IF MY INSURANCE WILL PAY A PART OF IT. IF NOT, I WILL FOOT THE BILL SO I CAN HAVE A LIFE AGAIN. THANKS AGAIN AND I WILL WAIT TO HEAR HOW JUDE IS DOING. PATTI - WISCONSIN From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Monday, March 23, 2009 6:36 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [TMIC] Visit with Jude and Dave I had a nice visit Jude and Dave today. Jude looked real good, was propped up in bed, eating her lunch, talkative, laughing, and thanks everyone for their prayers. She surprised me. Dave said he was also surprised to see her so alert. Jude said she didn't have any pain and was happy with the meds they were giving her and was positive that the "expensive" mattress they had her on was working. The mattress was water filled and continuously moved and was very impressive. Jude is counting the days until she can go home (seven to ten days makes it Friday to Monday) and hopes it might be even sooner. She said they are checking her continuously and she is currently infection free. (Answered Prayers) The only snag in the process so far is that the doctor didn't answer when she asked him how soon she could sit in a wheelchair. One "incision" still has the drainage tube while the other is dressing free. (Dave showed me a picture of that one.) Wow, in our town they have problems with the high-school kids and their inappropriate cell-phone pictures. It's a good thing we adults aren't in school - Dave would have been expelled! Jude is ready for phone calls and said I could post her hospital room phone number. 810-342-3482 It was so nice to have this visit with them today. Thanks to all of you for your support, Blessings, Patti - Michigan _____ Job Hunting?
