Cartwheels of JOY!!!

I received some FANTASTIC news today!  Lori has been taken off of her ventilator and is breathing on her own and her kidneys started functioning at full capacity.  They are even talking about moving her out of ICU!!  Can you believe it????  Thanks to all of you who never gave up hope on my cousin, even when my own hope was waning you all would email me and push me on.  The doctors truly do believe it is a miracle that she has come back at all and this quickly.  God has answered the many prayers of so many people.  This mother deserves to be with her family and her family with her.  I am sure it will still be some time and hopefully not many backward steps of her recovery.  I guess we really do not know what to expect yet BUT it seems the coma was a response to brain swelling from the stroke and then obviously the rest was what she needed and time.  It is weird how it can all change around so quickly!  I will keep you all posted, oh, and Ellen, I think we need to learn how to do a cartwheel, hee!!  Watch this!!! This is how i feel!!!
