Cast Off!

The cast was removed from Linda's right arm today. She still needs to be very carefull with it and has a new slip-on support brace she needs to wear most of the time. This is good news! She will be able to get back to doing many more things for herself that she has needed help with, like checking her emails! I've been helping her keep her inbox from getting out of control but she still has around 300 or so that she'll need to go through.

We heard from Mindy that she arrived home to her family in Saipan. She missed them very much and I'm sure she is VERY glad to be back home. Thanks for coming and helping so much Mindy! You are a blessing to our mother and all of us.

John says everything is now is just routine and Mom continues to get stronger every day. She is enjoying moving around the house more and starting to get back into her life a little at a time. She is so grateful to be getting her hair washed with shampoo and water!

I plan to be in Little Rock from Sat until Thursday to help out wherever I can. --Diane

you could get some Play-do and work on strengthening that right hand (if it's okay with your ortho guy)

I knew you would continue making progress, Mom! You can do it!!!
Wish I could be in two places at once.
Love you,
Mindy

Congratulations! I am so grateful to hear the healing news! and the cast off! I know this is a good feeling to have a little more use of that arm and hand. It's going to take a lot of patience and you have shown us all your ability to overcome. God Bless my wonderful friend who I love so much! Code Name 'GM'
