Exactly one year ago today, June 4, 2008, the plane left Big Spring around mid-morning and arrived at Love Field around mid-afternoon. Mom was rolled into Regency Hospital in Plano, in a medically-induced coma and on 100% breathing life support.
What a difference a year makes, and how blessed are we?!?!
The new picture is of Mom and Dad eating OUT at On The Border in Lewisville celebrating Dad's birthday (it's actually June 5th, but this is the day we could get everyone together). She has learned to get in and out of the car with assistance, and we wheeled her right into the restaurant. She enjoyed a huge meal (I think she had some enchiladas), including some birthday brownie/ice cream dessert. We got her back into the car and back to Vista Ridge, tired but thoroughly thrilled.
So this is huge progress. If she is able to get out and back and forth to the car, she is really on the road to "checking out" of Vista Ridge. All she needs to do is to continue to build her stamina.
We're hoping that she can come spend the night with us sometime next week...
