Good Morning everyone,
Last night was full of surprises for the Freeman girls... Bryan and I told the girls we were getting ready to go to church, but that mamaw was going to drive them so that we could ride the motorcycle. Taryn started wondering what was going on when Mamaw didn't get off of the Meadowbrook Road Exit, but when we got the hospital, she thought the surprise was simply getting to see their daddy, Matt. But, the true surprise was that Wendy was now in her own room, so the four girls were going to see mommy!!! They were excited to say the least, but as we approached you could see the fear in their eyes. When we all walked in the room, it took a while for the girls to warm up to the fact that they could touch mommy and hold her hand. But with lots of encouragement and taking the time to really explain every gadget and gizmo to Taryn, Kylee eventually walked up to Wendy and put her hand in hers and whispered back to Taryn, "look Taryn, I did it... I'm holding mommy's hand.. and it doesn't hurt!!!" Taryn immediately tip-toed up to Wendy and held at one little "ET" like finger and touched Wendy's hand. It was quite a sight to see. =0) They eventually became use to everything and were really glad that they finally got to see their mommy, because "it's been a long, long time" according to Taryn and she's right , it had been.
Wendy was still looking good. Her Oxygen was now down to 2.5 liters, which is great. The therapists even got Wendy into what Bryan calls, " a geri-chair" for a while in the afternoon, prior to moving her to the step-down unit. Her room number is 1063. So feel free to send cards and such directly to that room. Visiting hours are from 11am- 8pm, so for all you late night owls, make sure you get there early enough, so that you aren't locked out.
A very random thing I observed last night that was Wendy's lips looked a thousand times better. It was funny because on Tuesday they were still a little scabby looking and beat-up, but on Wednesday they were nice full healthy lips!!
Well that's about all she wrote =0) so keep up the prayers, because they are obviously working!!
We love you,
Jess =0)

Isn't God wonderful. Thank you Lord for putting a peace in Kylee and Taryn so they could visit with their Mommy. Thank you for the healing of Wendy - a healing that man does not understand, but your children expect. Continue to touch them all in Jesus name!!

I am so glad that the girls were finally able to see mommy. They really needed that and I know Wendy did also. I think this will help Wendy with a speedy recovery. I am still believing that she is going to be up and walking in no time. She is a fighter and it is so amazing to see how she is improving so rapidly. We owe all the Glory and credit to God, for he is so good. Thank you Jesus!
