Tuesday, 7/24 - afternoon

It is 1500 on 24July...thats 3pm for you non-mil types. ET is awake but in and out of sleep. Whenever I move around the room her eyes follow me even though they are half closed. She had said she can see me fine, even without the patch over one eye. The doc was encouraged by this too. We all agree her eyes look better. Doc said it tells him there is neurological improvement. She was able to eat lemon ice twice this afternoon. Just a few spoonfuls along with some water on a sponge. I know there will be ups and downs but these are definite ups.

Doc said he wants to give her one more day to see improvement before deciding the next action. She is off the sedation meds and has had pain only when she is moved. She has refused pushing the pain button each time so it has been managable for her. Doc is specifically looking for no more siezures and her being able to swallow a pill if needed. So we should know more tommorow and now you know what to pray for.

This is my last day with ET. I will be sad to go but what a priveledge to be here for the last week. I spent some time praying with her and she was responding to the things I was saying to her. She has been able to speak one word sentences.

I want to take the opportunity here to say thank you for all your support to ET. None of this would have been possible without the network of family and friends that have been here for her...especially those who have committed Elizabeth to God in prayer. There is no greater priviledge that to pray.

May God's will be done soon...
