That's right Jay, You are NOT alone. Besides Family and friends, YOU are a Member of THIS family also and we are ALWAYS with you all, if only in Spirit! I dare say that there are Prayers from different parts of the WORLD for Bre, You AND YOUR family!

Hang In There Jay, Bill

been too busy to check in lately, but was wondering how Bre is doing so I had to stop in before i crash and let you know I am still sending good vibes at you and hoping that the progress is marching on. Happy to hear of the leaps forward so far, all surely good signs, and the tubes are not a step back if she needs them to take more steps forward.

dustyc · « **Reply #78 on:** June 30, 2008, 02:39:25 AM »

I wouldn't think of them putting the tubes back as a step backwards, just something she wasn't ready for yet.

Still praying for you all.

Jay, please know that there will be lots of little set backs along the way. The important thing is that they are out numbered by the giant leaps she is making in recovery. She is fighting hard for her recovery and know that we all continue to be in her (and your) corner!! They are far better off being cautious and assisting with her breathing than rushing her before she is ready (and she WILL be ready it is just a matter of when). The trach will make all the difference in the world as her comfort is important. The more comfortable she is the less she has to focus on discomfort and the more she can focus on getting better and doing more and more.

We all continue to hold Bre and yourself in our thoughts...hang in there!

Dennis

Jay, the others and I sure hope you all are able to relax, at least somewhat by now and have a nice weekend. We haven't heard anything from you, but we know that situations like that call for AND get undivided attention and understandably so. I do hope you all are getting some much deserved relief. You all are continually in our thoughts and prayers, along with being on several prayer lists all over.

You all take care, Bill

Hi everyone. A little progress is being made, but it's slow. She is breathing through the trach, mostly with no help at all. A little more aware of things but still in a semi-concious state. When she wakes up, it will be possible to tell where she is at. They sit her up in a chair every day now, it's good for her to be in a more natural position. They tell us that progress will be made in little small steps rather than big leaps, so patience is the name of the game. I tell her that she needs to give me something each day, and so far she has, but as I said, small steps. I'll post occasionaly as things progress. Thanks everyone for your support!

bill440cars · « **Reply #83 on:** July 06, 2008, 08:38:05 AM »

Good to hear from you Jay. Our Support (Thoughts & Prayers) will ALWAYS be there! ALWAYS!!!! Hang in there buddy!
Take care of Yourself.

Later on, Bill

burmashave · « **Reply #84 on:** July 07, 2008, 09:19:00 PM »

Thanks for the update, Jay. We're all glad to hear about some slow but steady progress. I'm still praying for a miraculously full recovery over time. She is vaery fortunate to have you and your wife watching over her.

bill440cars · « **Reply #85 on:** July 12, 2008, 07:17:39 PM »

Jay is obviously preoccupied with his Daughter Bre's condition and that's to be understood, of course. He sent me a link that is updated as to what's going on and I just wanted to say that Bre had a pretty rough night Thursday night, a better night Friday night, the doctors are hoping to move her possibly Monday (if they can get her feedings going better). In the meantime,the therapy and rehab people have been working with her. So, with that being said, she seems to be progressing enough to keep the hopes alive and that's good. That's all they have posted so far. I'll try to keep you all up on this as post info on that web page. I'm sure Jay and his family are aware of all the Prayers and thoughts, that are coming in from here. This place really puts out the effort as a whole and that's a sign of just how great a place this is!

Thanks for keeping us in the loop Bill. Also, as always if you are trading notes with Jay and his family let them know that we all continue to be in Bre's corner.

My pleasure Dennis, When I send a message to Jay & family, I always let them know that we all are pulling for Bre's recovery and that the prayers and thoughts are with them. And that goes for you also burma, along with everyone elses support. I figured that would go without saying.

As soon as I can, I'll be updating her progress to you all. Gotta go for now though.

Take care, Bill

Thanks for the update bill.

Hey everyone. I'm sorry it's been so long since I've taken the time to update. Yesterday was a big day, Bre is finally out of intensive care and we have moved her into a children's rehab facility. The move was upsetting to her at first, but they expected that. Right now she is in the evaluation stage, but none the less they started therapy within an hour after arrival. Their goal is to push her as hard and fast as they can without overwhelming her. She is as alert and expressive as she ever has been. It's tough to see small changes being around her continuously, but folks that have visited and came back after a few days say the changes are obvious. The staff here is fantastic, and they seem to have very positive hopes for her. Even though things move slow with things like this, I can now really see the spark in her eyes. She's still in there. It may take a long while to get her out, but thankfully, she's there. Once again, I want to thank each of you for everything. This is an unbeleivable group.

Jay

PS Had to run home and take care of things the other day, and I snuck a 20 minute ride in on the 550. Can't tell you how good that felt, just the therapy I needed!

my78k · « **Reply #91 on:** July 15, 2008, 09:35:04 AM »

Excellent news Jay!!!!!!

No need to apologize for the lack of posting...lord knows you have your hands more than a little full!!

Also, good for you to get in that therapeutic ride...you're not much good at taking care of someone else if you can't take care of yourself! A few minutes away here and there to replenish makes you that much more effective when you are there!

Hopefully atleast being in a kid's rehab area and being around other kids a bit more will help too. Glad to hear the staff are top notch as well....

The people who work in those places have a direct line to places and beings I can only try to imagine. They work veryt hard. I don't know how they do it, frankly.

If you make brownies in cupcake tins, everyone gets some of the good crispy edges. Just sayin...

Glad to hear of the improvments Jay. I don't have net access Fri Sat Sun and with the site being down yesterday, it was nice to come back on line to some good news. Stick in there mate.

Thanks for the good update, Jay. I know that when my niece's friend went through the same thing, it seemed forever for him to recover. I know that all cases are different, but it took him a year of small steps until he was recovered enough to go back to school, etc.

Waiting is very hard. Although we can't see Bre, we can tell that you clearly display the strength that it takes to bring her through. Just as it is difficult to see her progress while you are all in the cauldron, it is hard for you to see how strong you are. We see it.

Awesome, nothing short of absolutely awesome!

As for not posting for a while, well the person more concerned with posting than his daughter has his priorities messed up. All of us here understand that Bre is way more important to you than anything else. I feel the same about my kids.

Stay strong

Eldar hit the nail right on the head! Thanks for taking the time Jay for an update and I'm glad ya got some SOHC time!

Jay, it's always good to hear about the progress that Bre is making and, even in the posts you are able to provide (and we don't want you to be away from her any more than possible), one can tell that you are feeling some relief and that is ALSO good to know. The Love of a parent for their child (or children), is nothing short of A Very Special Love. There is a lot of POWER in that Love also!

You all Take care, Bill
