Mama Update: Walking Like Robocop
The therapist said that she( Bonnie) is doing better at walking every day!! SO, I think we can chalk this day up as a VERY GOOD day!!! Continued prayers are needed and appreciated. Even though this courageous Lady has come a looong way, she still has a long and rocky path ahead of her.
Mama Update: There’s No Place Like Home: Tears of Joy
As we made our way home, she began smiling a little bigger as we traveled through Conyers. When we drove through Covington on I-20, she was smiling bigger and tears of joy were falling. As we exited I-20 at Stanton Springs, she was literally sobbing and laughing at the same time. As we drove up our driveway to her son Jay and the pups who were waiting on us, there are no words to describe the joy she was showing!!
Mama Update: (Day 59) Anxiety, Grief, Hope

Mama Update: (Day 47) Preparing for Discharge
Bonnie continues to progress. We have been in family training all week, and will continue the rest of the week in preperation for discharge. We have only recieved positive reports from the therapists and doctors, as well as seeing improvements ourselves. Words like "phenomenal" and "amazing" are being used in the reports.
Mama Update: (Day 38) Determined
She feeds herself,( and WILL let you know if there is something that she doesn’t like ), she is walking further and faster every session, with assistance from the therapists, playing games… and winning, doing puzzles and SO MUCH more.
