It was a busy day today for Mary. She had a care meeting with her team of theapists and care givers. They all laid out their goals and expectations. I didn't get specifics but everyone is clear on what needs to happen for Mary to continue treatment. She had radiation and PT and although painful she gracefully completed each task as best she could. Movement in general provides a great amount of effort and challenge. She did, however, sit up for a solid 10 minutes today, so she's gaining a small amount of strength each day. We pray it continues. Tomorrow she is going to get her hair washed and cut which I'm sure will do wonders!
At numerous points during her day she faced surprises. She received a beautiful bouquet of flowers that now grace her room. It really brightens the place up and she so appreciates the thoughtfulness. She also has received lots of cards and notes of love and support. Friends of old have stopped in and even when tired her display of grace is remarkable!
Grace: The state of being protected or sanctified by the favor of God! This is probably my favorite definition and it is without question that Mary has an abundance of grace in her life.
