Made It Through Another Day

Rebekah has made it through another day, or most of the way through it anyway.  Mommy and daddy are a bit frazzled, but…

Rebekah has continued to improve throughout the day which is SO much an answer to prayer.  In fact, tonight we actually saw something that has been gone for so long, our little girl’s smile:




She just was having a ball playing with daddy’s slippers.   (Notice her feeding tube just above her arm on her belly). She even asked us to take her over and sit in a chair at the table next to where Sarah was eating.  This was completely awesome.  I want to upload so many pictures but I can’t as our internet service here at home is just too slow.  I TRULY apologize to those of you on dialup for the picture timeline at www.HelpRebekah.com – I did not realize how slow it was!

We were able to take a step in the right direction with one of the medical providers – the one that has sent everything to collections already!  They sent us a financial aid application and said they would mark the accounts as current pending that application.  Still a lot of legal dealings to handle the collections, but I guess that is a part of this process too – THAT SUCKS!  I am sorry for the language for those of you who have little kids reading.  

I do want to draw special attention to the person that we don’t even know who gave us $200.00 on paypal.  THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU.  Right now that is huge to us.  It is our 20% of a basic night in the hospital – thank you again.  I would print your name but the way you filled things out leads me to believe you really don’t want to be known.

Our hearts are really on Maggie today.  Please check out her site at www.CureMaggie.com and if you know anyway or anyone who knows any way to get in touch with Rod Stewart, please do so for Maggie!  

Have a good night, hopefully we can see some positive things in the morning.
