Gina is still doing well. Has not needed the ventilator at all since Thursday. She is animated and alert most of the time however there are some times that she is just tired which is nothing unusual according to the nurses. Things that we take forgranted such as simply moving our fingers, standing up or even swallowing for that matter takes a lot out of someone who has been on life support for 4.5 weeks but she is still looking great and doing great. Also, on a great note - Today the nurse put in some sort of plug into the trachea that she has and I was able to talk to her and SHE WAS ABLE TO SPEAK TO ME FOR A COUPLE OF MINUTES. This was great to hear her voice even for a short period (about a minute or 2) so that was great.



Please pray for her to become stronger and stronger every day in general including her lungs and also her muscular therapy. She is worried (and she doesn't need to be) because she is not able to move her fingers that way she used to simply because she was under for so long but we all keep telling her that she is getting stronger every day in regards to her movement and resistance and she didn't feel that the woman at the hospital was helping her enough (and she wasn't stating it in a mean way). This is not something that the hospital takes cares intensively that is something that is going to be handled to a more intense degree in the Rehab center so please pray that the Lord would help her in physical ways but also help her mentally as well regarding that of not becoming discouraged because the doctor already said she would make a recovery but it would be slow (probably 6 - 8 weeks).



At any rate she is doing great but she still needs your prayers for all of this and please also pray for her financial situation particulary this piece of property that is up for sale as someone is interested and she was able to lower the price. She owns this property outright so it would be a tremendous relief for her. Thanks for praying and please continue to do so.
