THANK YOU VETRANS! First lets thank the Vetrans for supporting our Country on this Holiday!!
If anyone saw what you thought was Jordan in a vehicle in Windham on Saturday - you were right! We brought Jordan home for the day on Saturday. She saw her new home and especially her room and snuggled with Mittens, Princess, Biscuit and PeeWee (and don't forget Grammy too). Grammy made an awesome lunch of Pot Roast, Potatoes and carrots. Jordan ate a very big lunch and then dad & I got to take a 2 1/2 hour nap with her in her bed in her room. Thank goodness she has a queen size bed! The three of us all slept better than we have in 3 months!
Jordan was very happy to be home and very sad to have to go back to the hospital.
We stopped in at Crystal Wards on the way back (Jordan pointed the way to get to her house) and (you are going to kill me Crystal & Amber) we also stopped in at It Takes Two Farm because Jordan wanted to see the horses. There was a horse show going on and I didn't want to interrupt or bother anyone in the middle of the show so I didn't say anything. We told Jordan we would come back to see them on another day pass from the hospital. The next one will be Thanksgiving. We will bring her home that day for a couple of hours so that she can eat and rest after dessert before coming back to the hospital. It really tires her out just for the car ride home. Today is a Holiday at the hospital so she had some therapy's this morning but not her regular schedule. Auntie & I took her outside for a walk around the block and up to the park just to get her some "fresh" air. Her new wheelchair should be delivered tomorrow. She also has what they call a (STANDER). This allows us to strap her in lying down and then pull a lever that brings her body up to the "standing position". She seems so tall when they stand her up and this allows the blood circulation to her legs. If you think about it she has not stood up for 3 months and that is a very long time. She still has very little movement in her left leg but she tries every day to move it. We are working with two different types of splints to straighten out her left arm. The muscles in her left arm are very tight and need to be stretched because they are stuck in that position. She made some noises today and we need to just keep working on her repeating over and over until she figures out how to use her vocal cords again. Thank you to all her friends for visiting her. She really misses you and just so you know when she asks you to leave she tells me minutes to go get you and bring you back to see her again.
All of the videos are fantastic! I have no idea how you made them but they are awesome!
Thank you ~ We love you
Love: Jordan, Brenda and Jimmy
