Hey!
Thanks so much for praying for Gracie girl. The swallowing test was completed this morning and when we walked in she already ate some chocolate ice cream and was starting on mashed spuds and gravy with some pureade steak stuff. She'll be on thick liquids for a few days and hopefully can start eating a little more normal by Thursday. So thanks for praying.
We also got to move to a quiet room in the back, still has a window which is nice. It will be much quieter back there so keep praying that she can get some sleep. She only slept 1 hour Monday night and only caught a quick nap today. Hopefully she can sleep good in the new room.
Grace's mom and I hit up sherman williams today to check out paint samples and took them to Gracie for us to make some choices on our house paint when the restoration guys start painting tomorrow so that was fun for us.
Gracie is so pleasant and sweet to all the nurses and she was making us laugh all day. It's hard for her to focus on any certain thing right now but she is doing really well with therapy and listening to whatever they need her to do. We need her to be able to rest her body while working it out at the same time. A tough balance to recover.
Thanks for your love and prayer...the journey continues.
Wanting the storm to end, but learning to dance in the rain,
Lamar

Tell Gracie the Gambian women are dancing with her. Jogab just asked me how she was doing and I was able to share your latest update.
ReplyDeletePraise God for the great things he is doing. Keep pressing on!
Suellen for the Gambia gang
Lamar and Grace,
ReplyDeleteIt is so good to her that she was able to eat!! We will continue to pray for both of you.
God, who shows you his kindness and who has called you through Christ Jesus to his eternal glory, will restore you, strengthen you, make you strong, and support you as you suffer for a little while. (I Peter 5.-10)
Yeah for the new room and FOOD!!! We're praying for sleep and continued healing.
