Really, part deux

[Lacey]

Whenever I think we haven't heard from @Gerry about Lee in a while, lo and behold, in he pops with good news. So glad you are back home. Here's a New Year's wish for both of you: onward and upward to getting Lee back to herself.

 

[skatfan]

Glad to hear of this improvement. I hope that you and Lee soon get to spend some quality time talking together!

 

[FreeAgent]

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for keeping us updated Gerry!
Blessing to you, Lee and all of your family in this new year!

[Gerry]

Thank-you Jerry for the update. It will take a lot of rest and sleep to make repairs for all that Lee has undergone as you well know sleep time is when the body heals. So glad she is communicating again. This must have been hell for you. How do they know when to reprogram the shunt?

That's one of my questions... if they raise the resistance too soon, it will be counterproductive. It was easy to 'see' how her brain was re-establishing an equilibrium when she had an external drain we could measure and titrate. Now, with everything internal, I imagine she will need CT or MRI.

Thank you, Gerry. My one wish for your family is to have Lee home as soon as possible.

NJL (410 days? And you are still sane? You are incredible......)

Thanks for the info (I am very medically nosy).Hopefully where Lee is now they are set up for this testing.

Keep up the progress! Missing her reactions to the skating going on last week and this week

Keeping you both in my thoughts and prayers!

 

[Gerry]

410 days? And you are still sane?

What do you mean, 'still'? You're assuming I was EVER sane...

 

[NeilJLeonard]

What do you mean, 'still'? You're assuming I was EVER sane...

Hmmmm! Now that you mention it....

She was being nice. Some of us know better.

 

[NeilJLeonard]

She was being nice. Some of us know better.

She?

Yes, "she" should know better, but his admirable actions to Lee's incredible health horror have been beyond remarkable and deserve respect. He has earned it...

I should have checked out who (s)he was.

Yes he has, and I am aware of that. I am just teasing Gerry a bit.

 

[MINAM]

Just checking in for updates. Hopefully, no news is good news.

Bumping this up at a busy time in an Olympic season with good thoughts and prayers for @Really

 

[victorskid]

And another bump up with good thoughts & prayers...

Hoping that Lee is making steady progress

Joining all the continued support for Lee, already here.

 

[antmanb]

Some more well wishes for Lee and @Gerry

 

[victorskid]

So all the national championships are over, Europeans is over and 4CC finishes overnight tonight. Coming up is a short breathing spell before the Olympics begin (but lots of angst over the "Russian situation").

It has been a busy period on FSU but that doesn't mean that we haven't been thinking about @Really. Hope she is still making slow and steady progress @Gerry!

 

[pollyanna]

Bumping up - my thoughts are with you both, Really and Gerry.

 

[DaveRocks]

Sending positive thoughts and hugs!

 

[skateboy]

I hope Lee is doing better every day.

 

[Meredith]

Thinking of you, Lee and Gerry.

 

[icie]

Hopefully Lee & Gerry can watch & enjoy the Olympic together.

 

[MINAM]

Yeah, hope she gets to watch the Olympics!

 

[victorskid]

Bumping this up to page 1 in this busy pre-Olympic time period - sending good thoughts and prayers.

 

[once_upon]

Praying things are improving. Been quiet far too long.

 

[skatfan]

Prayers continue here.
