Team Recovery

Team Recovery has been at work!

What's the Good News?

  • Sharon has shown significant improvement - she has a little more energy and is able to walk the hallway 2x daily
  • White Blood Cell Counts are at .7
  • She is done with TPN (IV Nutrition) and is eating some foods
  • High Fever's are now intermittent which means her body is healing from infections

I flew to AZ to visit her this past weekend. It was good medicine for her soul. Saturday was 'Sassy Day'. We got her a special scarf for her balding head and put make-up on her. She looked so cute! However, it was just the beginning of Team Recovery at work.

(Brian, Sharon, Angie in her hospital room - we removed the masks and held our breath for the picture!)

(Brian and 'Nun' walking the hallway)Team Recovery also put together silly video's to induce some laughter. It worked! Here is a video of Melanie, Angie and Angela doing a 'well-rehearsed dance' celebrating her counts going up. Counts Up! Counts Up!

(Angie, Melanie, Angela, Brian on a mountain nearby the hospital - this was where we shot the videos!)

We Love you Mom!

Angie (also for Team Recovery)
