Linda Anne Getting Better

Keeps the prayers coming --- they are working !!!

Stopped in yesterday afternoon to drop off the cards you peeps sent and she is looking soooooo much better!!!  She reported she actually laughed yesterday (with a little snort too) talking with a coworker, so she is improving emotionally too.  She is eating small amounts and is hungry so that is great news.  Taking water through the tube so she stays hydrated, still doing the shakes in smaller amounts to keep up her nourishment and add calories, and eating through the pouch so she can start the transition off the tube. 

So let's hope this continues for a few days so she regains her strength and weight!!!  Those two things alone will do leaps and bounds for her emotional well being......

And kudo's to her hubby, Brian (AKA Dorkuss---hee hee!!!), for the tender care he gives to her too.  He was very happy to hear her laugh -- she hadn't done that for a while.  Not only does this turn Linda's world upside down, but his too.  But he is a great guy and loves doing it!!! 

I'll keep you posted!!!  Looks like Linda Anne is coming back ---->>>>> YEAH!!!!!

HUGS LINDA ANNE ---- B.B.

Thank GOD!  I haven't taken the time to post a great deal lately, but I've been following her progress through you and Amy.  I was sincerely concerned for her health, but I will continue to PRAY that she's on the road to recovery!!

Linda Anne, I love you, pipsqueak!  Git'r Done, sweet thang!
