8/25 Update

I only had a few minutes on the phone with Shannon today.  She continues to make progress with her trach.  She is going to be on track to take it out on Friday.  Her days are filled with exercises and occupational therapy.  As most have you have figured out, there are updates from the folks visiting in the Posts section.  I have chosen not to repeat them in Updates.  I'll be heading up later in the week.
