Well, we're packing up the suitcases, stuffed animals and DVD's for a trip to Santa Clara Valley Medical Center in San Jose. Rolf the iPod is coming too, and Tyler has loaned us his iPod port for easy listening. Thuley has been found, and is sitting in his station - watching over the D from the tray next to her bed. Dorothy will travel by special ambulance with a nurse for the trip. Mikele will ride up front, and Bob will drive. Aunt Tam is watching the house for us. Bob will take the train or fly home on Sunday.
Thanks to the ministrations of so many caring people, our freezers are filling up nicely with leftovers. Bob has the additional challenge of having tax season come upon us - so these meals are an absolute God-send. We are so very grateful.
We'll keep you posted from San Jose. We just heard today that they might have a laptop she can use, and there's Wi-Fi at the hospital! Yippee! I wonder if they use Wii in physical therapy...

Yay, Dorot!
Oh, and guess what? I was playing Berean Ball at youth group so intensely that I injured myself! I either got a very gnarly cramp or pulled my calf or something. I can't walk on it, heh. I just hope it gets better by tomorrow..
Yeah, and nothing else very exciting has happened, or else I'd tell you.
I'm glad you found 'thulie... the alternatives was not attractive to me, since I couldn't find him here... and even if I could... Ah well. Kick some rehabilitation butt!

Praying for a safe trip and maybe one of those cool ambulances that have a TV/DVD player. Conor had one for a ride to LA and it really helped! I just know your going to do great.
Mikele, take care of D's mom! =)
Love, Taylor
Hi Folks, Have a safe trip. If things don't work out with a laptop loaner, let me know and I might be able to "scrounge" one up. Smart idea to stay close by due to driving tired in that traffic. I'm so happy for you all with the recovery. Let me know if I can do anything. Julia sends her love but is still coughing from the flu. I'm glad D is one celeb who's said YES to rehab :).
Love, The Longos
what amazing progress!!!! sounds and hugs and walking. You are incredible Miss Dorothy! I have a strong feeling that you will soar through Santa Clara with wonderful acheivments. I hope we can still send blog messages that you will recieve there. Fondly, Sher
ps... your candle is lit and so is the christmas tree.
My mom shot me the email that you sent her. I will definitly be praying for Dorthy to recover. That you will have the strength to get through this.
Have hope Dorothy! You've been through *so* much, and you're making such *wonderful* progress, day by day! LOTS and LOTS of people are praying for you and sending their love. I know for a young pup like you, a few days out of circulation seems like *forever*, but in the overall scheme of things, it's practically nothing. Just an eye blink, in the cosmological time scale. ^_^ When you look back on this, it'll just be an interesting story. I have such a powerful sense that you'll be back out in the world in no time at all.
We love you sooo much!
