We’ve made it 2 full weeks in Alabama! We’re settling into a routine and it’s good!

Maggie continues to improve! She’s so alert, looking around, starting to make noises, wanting to sit up. She’s eating some applesauce and pudding. She gets tired easily, but seems to really enjoy all the familiar voices.

She’s getting great care and therapy. We’re working on her sitting up by herself. 7 months of limited movement has taken its toll in her muscles. Apparently you lose 3% of your muscle mass everyday you stay in bed. Her arms are so strong! She can push her arms out and move them up and down. She’s starting moving her feet while lying in bed.

Continue to pray for us! Having a big family has helped so much and Maggie’s friends are so faithful to come visit. But a new schedule always takes some time to get used to.

Pray for Maggie to become more and more aware.
Pray for her body to continue to heal and stay well.
Pray for no seizures (she had one Wednesday night)

Oh give thanks to the Lord, for he is good, for his steadfast love endures forever! (‭‭‭Psalm‬ ‭107‬‬:‭1‬)
