Wednesday

Today the Dr. and Therapists talked about Ashlyn's discharge. They are shooting for next Friday. They feel that she will do better in her own environment interacting with her siblings and just being at home. I agree with them. After her last long stay in the hospital, after being home for a few weeks she was back to her normal self. She will still get therapy on an outpatient basis. About 3 days a week for 1 1/2 hours. She has also started "jibbering". Sort of what Katelyn does. This is a good sign, and hopefully the words are not far behind.

Thank you all for praying for her and for all your support to us. We could have not gotten through all this without it. Thank you to all of you who have made us some yummy dinners and deserts. I have accumlated a lot of dishes. Please stop by and pick them up when you can.
