Little Improvements

Makenzie had a better today. She was awake for most of the day, alert, talking more, visiting with grandparents for a bit, watching movies, and getting her appetite back a little. She polished off a few bites of scrambled eggs, 1/2 a grilled cheese, a handful of fries, and a Krispy Kreme donut. And, it's not quite dinner time yet. She definitely misses home and her brothers. She is already asking about going home. But it will be a little while still. She is quite weak from surgery, especially on the left side, she can't really move her fingers on that hand. She also can't stand unassisted. She did about 25 minutes of physical therapy and did great. The surgeon doesn't seem overly concerned. He said it's not uncommon after brain surgery and he expects her to regain her strength as she recovers. Keep her in your prayers... she is a trooper.
