Therapists began trying to feed Natalie three times a day. This includes very small portions of food (cheerios, orange juice, yogurt, etc.) but will help to get Natalie back into the habit of eating three meals daily. She is not yet able to eat enough on her own to completely nourish herself so they are continuing the tube feeding to remedy that.
Natalie's nausea continued today but she was more alert today than she had been in the past few days (talking more and participating more in her therapies). She continued working on improvements in therapies - including beginning to learn how to use a regular wheelchair (natalies current wheelchair is able to angle her back so she sits back more comfortably and also has a headrest).
I was also told that Marc was able to show Natalie the website for the first time and he read a few comments to her. I look forward to the near future when she will be able and alert enough to read the comments herself - I believe that day is not so far away!
Keep praying!

Hey Natalie,
I have been reading this blog everyday for the past few months and have been so happy to hear of your progress thus far! I have even told some of my friends at school about the site and I know that they check it often too, one of them has you in a prayer circle at their church back home in long island. Everyone is thinking of you and praying for you and is so happy with your day to day success! Keep it up girlie!
