Another good day

Overall Natalie had a good day today.

Doctors had placed small drains inside Natalie's bladder after the minor surgery to prevent infection and further problems; Today Natalie pulled those drains out. After Doctors examined her bladder they realized there was no longer a need for the drains and did not replace them.

Natalie has been increasingly expressive. This story is another brief example of that. It also contributes to the belief that her coma is lightening as she is preparing to awaken herself.

Rebecca will be driving back to Syracuse tomorrow from Florida. She has a long journey ahead of her (about 24 hours) but I will keep you all updated on her status as well.

Thank you all for reading and posting your comments, keep it up, because I will make sure Nat reads them all when she is ready!

Thanks for everything Mike!
The roomies (Elyisa, Kel, and our new edition Mer Cook) have all been grateful for the updates. We seriously check the website every hour or so to see the new update. We can't wait to see you all again, and hopefully by then Nat will be out of her coma to greet us with her warm smile and amazing personality....we miss you all, especially Nat. My prayers, thought, and love go out to all of you.
