I'm sitting here with Sully, Rich, and Jeannette and thought I would take a minute to bring everyone up on the latest.    Yesterday was a great day, with Jeannette actually walking and even managing a few steps.   But today was a crisis of sorts, with Jeannette's stomach turning red and fluid accumulating.  Suddenly there were CAT scans, tubes being inserted and operating rooms being reserved.   Rich was in panic, of course, but Jeannette seems in great spirits, she's eating Corn Flakes and Grape Nuts and the new antibiotic drip is in full swing.   Still, it was a very scary day!  

     As of now, she's relaxed,the doctors seem to have things stabilized, and yet it serves as a good reminder that this healing process is a journey with far too many hills.  The really good news is that her legs are both the same length now, the post leg repair went well, and now she just has to get this new development figured out.  More to follow when more is known....
