Day 20: Doing great!

Mom and Dad in San Diego, 2007

Day 20:
Mom continues to hit incredible milestones and amaze all of us!

Today she ate all of her breakfast which is a new one. Dad said she was eating very little and that if she didn't step it up a notch, the feeding tube fairy would have to make a visit. Wouldn't you know it, she gobbled it all up. Honestly, it seems like what is holding her back from eating is from pure exhaustion.

What is hitting home to my aunts and Dad (who are with her everyday) is how exhausting the physical therapy continues to be. She again is a very determined mamacita and has her priorities in check. It's all about mom who is learing and regaining her strength, re-teaching her arms and legs to work and showing us what an inner drive she has.

So, as it's day 20 now...what have you learned so far? What has it made you re-think or what insights have you gained? There's no time like the present so get going...act on that insight, call that old friend or book that trip to Paris!

  1. Are we surprised that Boise continues to be amazing the doctors and everyone??? C'mon we are tawkin' about Boise Taylor - one of the most determined women on the planet!

    The process is a slow one -- that we know - taking one day, one step at a time is a great reminder for us all - slow down and smell the flowers, enjoy the clouds, soak in the sun - whatever your pleasure....and remember to give thanks.

    Life is filled with 'little things' -- so dear Boise, little steps,little movements, little gains each day are anticipated....slow is good!

    I-17 South is congested with prayaers and good wishes from all at TRR.
