John returned to the hospital and called me to give a last report for the night.
She will remain heavily sedated for quite a while. This was another day of trauma for her. It feels like a setback. It's really hard to see someone you love so much in this state. We know it is part of the process and she will still recover but she has a lot of healing to do.
The MD who is caring for her arm said they need to change her dressing every other day and she will need to have a few more surgeries on it. There will be pain for some time and nerve damage. She lost some muscle but he said she will eventually be able to use her hand and arm without too much difficulty. She still has her arm! and her hand! Thank God!
Lord, hold my mother in your arms tonight. Cradle her with love and healing light. Take away her pains and wrap her in your protective embrace. Send her beautiful dreams of her favorite places and let her know that she is safe, provided for, and loved. Amen
John and Linda Fordyce

Make me cry! Thank you for these updates. I wish all of the family peace of mind and strength in these tough times. You are right she has her arm, and her life. She will be the bionic woman! Sweet Dreams, C
Linda & John:
Know that there is an overgrown boyscout in NE Arkansas who will keep you in his daily prayers thoughout your struggles & inconveniences. I have always found comfort in 1st Corinthians 10:13 which says that we will NEVER have more put on our plate than we can handle. This scripture has served me well throughout the "roller coaster rides of my life". Jim Dean
