Another update

Hi everyone, just another quick update.  Since this morning, Stacy has made great improvements.  They've started cutting back on pain meds and have taken her off of sedatives.  They are doing this so that she can become more alert.  There is still a great bit of swelling, but the surgeon says that it will take weeks for this to start subsiding.  Also, her fever is slowly coming down and is not of great concern.
She's able to look at us and she'll smile.  She'll nod her head to yes and no questions.  Also, she's learning how to communicate with us through looks and hand gestures.  Overall, she's doing great.  This is just the beginning of the journey and we know that there will be a long road.  But we are very optimistic.  Keep her in your prayers.
