Day 17

I dropped in on Joanie three times today, between trips to school to get a little work done. She still comments that she is sleepy but we did some exercises and I had her out for a walk with her full walker twice. We also went outside in the wheel chair and watched a fellow with a new 14" long RC helicopter. It was great--even Joanie enjoyed watching him fly it.

I took Joanie a baked potato for lunch. When I arrived and prepared it in her room, she promptly ignored the hospital food that had just arrived.

Joanie continues to say that she really doesn't want to talk. Her voice sounds a bit rough, she still has some cough, and she is not sleeping as well as she usually does at home.

I brought her a sketch pad because her PT suggested that she needed to do some sketching and writing. Jim wants her to go clear across the page.

Hi Lance and Joanie,
Well I am sure glad you are doing this blog so that I can keep abreast of what's happening. Joanie I am praying for you several times a day. It was good to see you even though you probably didn't want the company. Anyway....I know that you are going to rebound from this life trial, and I was so impressed with how you handled my visit. Anyway, Lance I will see you at graduation. Joanie, keep up the positive thoughts and I will keep up my prayers. You have always been such an inspiration to me and you still are. Love you guys! Connie & Bill
