Jenny has a semi-private room with an unlikely chance of having a room mate, so she has more room for family and friends to spread out it. I brought our laptop to finish an on-line defensive driving course (before the deadline expires tonight) and Jenny began looking all excited about getting on-line. I realized that she had so many activities that involved the internet that I should have hooked her up sooner. Her vision is still difficult, so I read most things for her. I showed her this web site since she has heard so much about it and the comments. We checked out her Primary message boards. She was punished by hearing me complete the 3 hour defensive driver course (24/25 was my passing score). I’m sure Jenny answered all the questions right in her head though. I promised her a little trip to the e-bay web site if she worked hard today. Jenny is a bit scared and emotional about her change. She still states she wants to be here, but I can only imagine how scary it can be for her to have limited knowledge of her surroundings and having to trust strange new people with every aspect of her daily living.
She was excited to hear that they expected her to be dressed in other clothes besides a hospital gown. I brought in a few changes of clothes/nice pajamas. I also told her of the posibility of a shower. Her eyes really lit up on that suggestion. Unlike the other 3 hospitals, she came here with the assumption that she will improve use of her voluntary motor functions. Every place else had the goal of preserving life and stabalizing her. Therefore, she is treated by staff as though she will improve. Well, it is time to begin rehab, so I’m off to cheer and support.

Jenny — I always knew you were a woman after my own heart……..I LOVE E-BAY, TOO!!! Let’s hear it for us down to the wire, fast,last second bidders to win our auctions and shut everyone else out!!!!
Hi Jenny and Mark,
Jenny it is so good to hear about all the things are you are able to do. You are one amazing, courages woman. I have never seen anyone with such determination and strength in my lifetime.
I was sadden to hear about your last hospital stay. Shame on that nurse. I am thankful you are in a much better situation.
I look at your website at least 3-4 times a day. I am so encouraged by all the answers to prayer and I pray for all the challenges you and Mark are faced with, but most of all we pray for that full recovery that we all know only He can provide.
I bet you are excited about your own clothes! Those hospital gowns have a lot to be desired. They need to get an Extreme Makeover don’t they. You are going to feel like a new person after a real shower and your own clothes.
I was thankful that Mark was able to get you hooked up to the computer. We all feel more connected I think when we can see what everyone is up to.
Mark, thank you again for keeping us all informed through this web site. Please call me if I can help you with anything.
Hi Mark & Jenny – You’ve been in our prayers since day one! Jenny, Will and I are encouraged by your progress. After Zach and Hunter’s study trip last Thursday, Will came home with this website address and I am honored to be able to check in on you regularly. Keep working hard. We’re with you in spirit!
