As Dorothy's speech therapist reminded us today, a head injury happens to the whole family. Wise words.
We have up days and not so up days - on the whole, the best analogy I can come up with is that getting through this process is like wandering through a maze, with blinders on my eyes and my feet tied together. Not only can I not see through to the end, sometimes I can't even negotiate the turns.
I am a driven person. When I see a problem, I fix all my attention on trying to fix it. So it's hard for me right now - this isn't something I can fix. I can't make everything better according to some plan or schedule. I can only watch ... and wait ... and pray.

I have the same fix-it attitude that you do...especially when it comes to my babies so I can only imagine how hard this must be for you guys. Just know that you are still in our thoughts and prayers!

I am praying for you!
May God give strength when there is none.
May God give peace when things are chaos.
My God give joy when things are great and patience when they are not.
I love you guys.
I was sitting here trying to figure out how to put my feelings into words when I read my daughter and Melissa's comments......they said it all!! I love you all very much and you are constantly in my thoughts and prayers.
Love,
Aunt Susie
Thanks, you guys. I really needed the encouragement...
Even though I know some of the issues that you are facing (especially in terms of the speech and language aspects), I still can't imagine how difficult this must be for you all. Dorothy is so extremely lucky to have such a strong family support system. Please know that you all are in my thoughts. If there is anything I can do to help, let me know.
Sincerely,
Jen Hanson
