Good, Dean. I hope you are keeping some notes for Judy. She'll want to understand what has happened during the time she's been in the hospital. The two of you seem to be such a strong team- that's certainly in her favor!

Pretty soon you'll figure out a way to help her communicate without risking her pulling out vital equipment. For now she may need reassurance and to hear your voice talking to her. Can you work out a yes/no signal she could try? Eye blinks, finger taps, big toe wiggles...anything to give her a way to communicate and reduce her frustration.

Prayers and thoughts continue, and confidence that healing is progressing,

Maeve
