What an incredible day. Firstly peoples generosity is truly amazing. Laurel Gray and I feel a little overwhelmed with it all and really dont know how to say thankyou enough to all the amazing people who have taken time to think of us in creating the page, donating, sharing, and posting comments and sending messages of support. Many tears shed today, but happy tears. The little battler Maddi blew the doctors away again today. They decided this afternoon to take her off ventilator and she handled it like a trooper. We were warned she could have brain damage where she could lose speech, limb movement, memory, impairments. Well every limb was moving today, she let out plenty of little cries, and laurel got to have a hold and she recognized her voice and it soothed her. Very emotional moment, we would love our daughter no matter what but to tick off limbs, memory, and speech less than 24 hours after brain surgery is mind blowing. We haven't had alot of good days up here but today was definately one of them. There is still a very long recovery, many boxes to still tick, possibility of reinfection or reinflammation but it's one day at a time for us and we couldnt have started off with a better one. Being so overwhelmed we wanted to share the special mama-maddi moment. We wanted to share our relief and joy of an unforgettable day. God bless you all.
