There's No Stopping Us Now

Patty's update: DonnaLee has continued to improve yesterday and today. She's still in post-op recovery, but her complaining neighbor was finally moved.

Now that the feeding tube is out, DonnaLee is able to eat again; yesterday, she started with soup and jello for lunch.

DonnaLee has started physical therapy, which is going well, albeit somewhat painful.

Today, the last surgery drain was removed and her heart monitor was disconnected. She was able to walk a couple hundred feet, and Warren commented, "Ain't no stoppin' her now!"

On a sad note, DonnaLee and Warren's friend and neighbor Mickey passed away on Monday night. Their prayers go out to his wife, Carol, their children and their neighbor Fred, who lost one of his dearest friends. DonnaLee was very sad to be in the hospital and unable to hug and comfort Carol.
