This morning Adri got out of bed and walked down the hallway!!! She also managed to eat a little bit of food and is sitting in a chair. This is a huge improvement and we are so very happy for her. Dr. Harsh came in during lunch to see how she was doing and said that her progress is very "above average." Most patients after this surgery apparently aren't up until two to three more days later. Truly amazing. At this pace we think she **might** be able to check out Sunday or Monday. Adri said she would be up for reading the blog later today so please post!!!
Adri!! SOooooo impressive!! Now lets just get some tennis balls for the bottom of your walker and we will be good to go!!
ReplyDeleteP.S. You are amazing. Truely amazing. You are incredible and selfless and the most positive person in the world. Keep your chin up! The McCraws love love love you!!!
Hooray - so like a Aries!! You can't be held down. It's incredible to impres the doctors.

Adrianna- we have been following you so closely through the blog (thank you Hallenbergers for faithfully updating) and you are remarkable! It looks like you are chatting away with the nurse who is walking with you. :) I love you! Megan

Adri, love here from the Kunoth's! It's awesome to hear things are going great. You've been on the heart of all of us down here, many prayers for you the last few days!
ReplyDeleteWe asked Grady to say "I love you aunt Adri".... but he said no. Don't take offense, it's a 2 year old thing.... We all know he really means yes. Just like how he says no to M&M's sometimes.
We are all thinking about you and hope the recovery is quick and your back on your feet in no time.
Love
Kurt, Laura, Grady, Wyatt (brutis)
