Grace Recovering

Grace is in pain and not really herself, but she is on track as far as her recovery goes. Yesterday she sat up in bed for the first time and today she will most likely be moved to a chair to sit upright for a few hours. Over the next few days she will have the lines removed from her body, the staples removed from her scalp, and have her pain medicine reduced. She is beginning to eat solid food again and watch a little TV. Friends continue to stop by and brighten our day. Sheila's brother, Jay stopped by to say hello as did Ernie Johnston whose sister and family,the Lammerts live in Darien. Jack Devita also visited for a few hours. It will be a month or so before we really know if the surgery helped Grace, but we are hopeful and so far there are no signs of any seizure activity. Everyone is excited about the Academy Awards tonight. The locals think The Hurt Locker gets best picture. Many thanks to all of you for your thoughts and prayers.

  3. Hi Grace & Family,

    Hang in there! I know this isn't easy, and I hope that each day allows you less pain and helps you on your road to recovery. You are so courageous and have so many people pulling for you all over the world! My family and I pray for you every day. I hope you all can enjoy some of the Academy Awards tonight too.

  5. We are glad to hear that everything is progressing nicely. We enjoyed seeing Michael and the rest of the Hughes clan. Donovan was so well behaved at the Christening. He must take after Kate. He was cooing for me and we had a great day. I am still a little pi_ _ ed that he sleeps through the night as none of my three ever did. Our best wishes for a speedy recovery and a quick trip back to Darien.
