Thanks for the Prayers--THEY ARE WORKING!!!!!!
THAT's just about the best news I've heard in a while!

"Connie Einarson" wrote in message s.com... On or shortly after May 12, I posted to the group about my best friends daughter--Jennifer, who had been in a car accident that I responded to with the ambulance. She had suffered a severe brain injury, and was in a coma. For the next month and two brain surgeries, the prognosis was very bad, if she survived at all. On June 16, she was off all medications, and they began weaning her from the respirator. Her eyes were open, but there was no recognition. They asked the family to start thinking about long term care. During the next week, she began moving her right side, but not her left (she is left handed). One of her doctors advised trying a rehab hospital, rather than a nursing home, and got her into one. There seemed to be very little progress until July 3rd, when her dad came into her room and said "Hi Jen" as he always did, and she answered in a whisper, "Hi Dad". Since then, her progress has astounded every one. Yesterday, I went to see her for her 19th birthday, and she walked across the room for us. Her left side is still partially paralyzed, and she has some memory deficits which may be permanent, but she called me by name, and thanked me for the butterfly quilt that I had brought for her the week before. The doctors have stopped putting any limits on her recovery, and only say that they won't know if she has any permanent disabilities for two years. NEVER doubt the power of prayers and good thoughts. Miracles happen every day. Connie from ND |
