Scilla had a pretty good day, today. She was eager to go to therapy and did well in her sessions today. She is still not eating as well as she should and experiencing pain; but she keeps pressing on and giving it her best! She only had 2 moments today when she was really emotional. One was when she was talking about the effect of the accident on her 16 year old daughter, Kelle. Kelle had been holding a lot in and on Wednesday we learned just how much this accident has effected her; she is really having a difficult time accepting her mother's paralysis and has expressed to us that she doesn't know how to handle this. Needless to say, we are working on getting her the proper help to aid her in better coping with her mom's accident. I asked Kelle if she wanted to write an entry on the blog and she said yes; so look for an entry from her very soon.
Scilla told me that her nurse told her tonight that our family is going to have to start getting more involved in her care; be more hands on and do things such cathing and helping her transfer. Mimi has already started getting more involved as you can see in the video below, she wanted to help her Aunt Scilla wheel to therapy and decided to do a little dancing on the way:
Scilla always says Mimi makes her world go 'round and Mimi says Aunt Scilla is the bestest girl in the world. So here a couple of photo's that requested I take today (they would want to take pictures, the one day I don't have my camera and only my phone).
