Nick just said it all...I missed the big outing..had just returned to the hotel for a few minutes when they all decided to take a field trip! Wow...what a deal..the nurses were so kind and Jen loved the feeling of fresh air for a bit..we all look forward to trying it again soon.
Margene and Judy left today..so wonderful to have them for a couple of days. Terri and Richard were here too..they brought her some healing music C.D.'s that we are going to try..Jenny has always loved music so much so we are hopful that this will give her some peace. She is going to have another surgery tomorrow to change her dressings again...we are all anticipating that she will be able to stay off the vent during this ordeal...and keep moving forward.
We are all looking forward to the arrival of Nick's mom, Marie, from Australia, on Wednesday. She will be a great help to all of us and I am sure will lift Jenny'spirits.
Many thanks again my friends for all of the love...we have met the most wonderful people here that have all lifted us up and continually rely on our friends from home..what a journey..we know we aren't making it alone.
Goodnite..look so forward to hearing from you all..Love, Marilyn
PS..keep Sharon Ringler in your prayers..she is back in Houston at MD Anderson..and needs us.

Jen's Field Trip
It was one of the funniest things you will ever see. Jen being wheeled through the parking lot of Medical City while still in bed. She had the opportunity today to get some fresh air and feel the warmth of the sun and the cool of the wind. Thanks to all the nurses for taking Jen on the trip for about 30 mins. Again it was an example of the simple pleasures that make my baby so happy.
She is really enjoying being able to eat solid foods, it seems like yogurt is at the top of her list. She has also had the chance to hear from some of the nurses just how serious things were at the beginning of this whole ordeal. She understands how lucky she is to be still alive and it was her strength and determination that pulled her through. It is these traits that will help us tackle he challenges that lie ahead.
Only a few more weeks in ICU babe then off to Rehab hospital. I know you cant wait to get home and I cant wait to get you home. I cant wait to lie with my head on your chest and listen to your heart beat, its the sound I miss most and one that I will never take for granted again.
Love Hubby.
