Hi all:
I just returned from seeing Angela today and as we thought, she is to be released from the hospital tomorrow around lunch time. Hows THAT for progress eh! When I visited her today, she looked terrific. Physical weakness and lengthy walking still hinders her but that will all come with time I am positive.
Thanks go out to Jim FV who kindly loaned out a walker for Angela to use until she is finished her rehab. Thanks also to the other folks who replied to my previous blog with suggestions of the Legion etc.
Angela will be staying with our parents until such a time that she is once again able to carry out her own day-to-day activities.
On behalf of my family, I cannot begin to thank each and every person who sent well wishes, sincere thoughts and prayers Angela's way during this time. I have no doubt in my mind that all that positive energy assisted her on her road to recovery.
As a family, I think we can all breathe a sigh of relief now, knowing that Angela is out of the woods and gaining momentum every day towards recovery. On a personal note, I'd like to thank my family for being able to pull together as a team and focusing on the common goal of Angela's health and doing whatever it took to accomplish that. I'm so proud of all of them :)
With that being said, hopefully, as I said earlier, my next blog regarding Angela's health will be quite boring and short. Hopefully I'll be able to report that she has recovered fully and is back to living a normal life with her 3 wonderful children. Brandon, Courtney and Darren have all been troopers throughout this situation and have been surrounded by the love of my family as well as close friends of Angela.Steve and Krista...thanks for taking Brandon under your wing and to my sister Shirley, thanks for taking Courtney and Darren into your fold.
With sincere thanks and gratitude,
The McDade family.
