Sorry, I posted too soon before I got an update....
Gigi is with mom today and she just called to tell me some really great news. They replaced mom's trache today and she spoke. When I was there Friday, the speech therapist checked her and her vocal chords were not strong enough to make more than just a few small sounds. Today, they changed a part as she was able to verbalize. Her first words were "Mom, I am in so much pain!" Very sad but also amazing. One main part of the damage in her brain had to do with speech so this is truly a miracle. So you see, we are being blessed with many miracles. It is very sad to see mom in this much pain and to watch her so helpless but we are also very blessed. Thank you all for your support! Keep praying, our united prayers are being heard.
