Super Saturday

Just a quick update on Alice's progress: She's been quite the socialite lately, with visits from her Grandfather and Uncle and Aunt, and obviously her parents too. She's also 'free' - no more drips, drainage tubes etc, and I believe she's ecstatic about this! And, as a treat, she had her hair washed ... something she's been longing for for quite a while now. All the doctor's are very impressed by the progress she is making, and there's even a possibility that she might get discharged on Monday. She's still battling with pain, and is now only taking painkillers orally, and according to the doctor the pain can stick around for up to 4 weeks - please pray that her pain subsides and that she can manage with comfort.

Checking in again through Nathan's blog. I am so blessed that he mentioned you. I am so glad that there's a chance you can come home on the very same day that Tricia might go on the active list.

Praise be to God.
