Saturday we were treated with "morning," a thumbs-up, and several smiles. Otherwise it was a low key day, and she slept for most of it. On the few occasions when she opened her eyes, they were more clear and focused.
When dear friend Mae Rens spoke to her over the speakerphone, Mom turned her head toward Mae's familiar voice.
We are hoping for more progress today, primarily because we'd like for her to qualify for acute rehab. That said, considering what she has endured, we're very happy about all improvements, and those glimpses of Mom are priceless.
Thank you, as always, for your loving support. And a special thanks to Auntie Nan, who is giving us a place to sleep, shower, eat... supplying us with gallons of strong coffee and stellar dog-sitting services.

Again thank you for the update. Let me know if I should e-mail her more notes. -Romaine
So happy to read how Alyce is progressing. Send her and your dad our love and we are thinking of you all at this time. So good that you can all be together. Jo (and the rest of the Bradburys and Blackwell's). X
Dear Val and Nancy Joy,Jeff and Brian, Please know our prayers continue for all of you, especially for
your mom and your dad.
When you do find an acute care place, would you also send the address?
God bless you all with strength and peace as you care for your parents.

Dear ones, The pictures you included in your updates are wonderful to see.
Thank you so much for sharing them. The grounds around the Pavillion are filled with the expansive coming of spring. I'm glad you can see it and also the children playing. Do you see flowers,too?
"Lead me, Lord," to know how to pray for our friends--stay close by to Alyce and Rich and all their family and bless them with what they need most.
And thank you for happy times like Val's daughter's graduation.
We also pray the MRI shows good signs of healing.
When I worked in a spanish factory in SO CAL, the word we heard the most was
"a'ndalay!" (Did I spell that correctly?) By the grace of God, may your healing not be delayed. Much love, to you, to Richard and all the family. MaryRuth
