Many of you know that Mom is in Wesley's Medical Intensive Care Unit after having respiratory failure last Thursday. Right now, she is in critical condition and is sedated and on a ventilator. The doctors performed a successful tracheotomy today to help her breathe, and my family and I believe that this is a vital step to successful recovery. Mom is a fighter, and she loves life, and we have faith that she's going to wow us all as she continues to heal.Thanks to all of you who have shared your love, prayers and support during the past week. It's been a very difficult time, and I know we'll need the help of the people who love Mom and our family to see us all through it. While she's on all of our hearts and minds, I wanted to share some of my favorite photos of her from the past several months.
