A weekend of rest
Mom rested well this weekend. Julie and John were in town this weekend and mom really responded to them well too. She even smiled for Uncle John. They helped out a lot so we could have some family time with our own families, it was a nice break. I think I failed to mention but they took her off the oxygen on Friday and she is breathing all on her own. YEA!!! We are still waiting on her to have surgery on her right arm. That is the next step for recovery right now. We are waiting to find out when that will be. Waiting is so hard. Please continue to pray for our families and for mom's recovery. We will keep everyone posted. Thank you for all the comments, mom will love them.

Thank you Angie so much for keeping us up to date. I probably checked the blog 100 times in the 10 days I was out of town. You will never know how much it helps us and helps us know how to pray better. Marcia
i am just a customer of your mom's at the bank.it's not like you dont already know this but your mom is one of the kindest, gentlest souls i have ever had the good fortune to meet. one of those rare people that when talking on the phone you can actually hear the smile on her face. you just know its there. she is just one very special lady. please convey to her my warmest regards and wishes for a speedy recovery. it's just not the same without her there. steve morgan
Jilly - So glad to hear of your continued progress - slow but sure. Your family has been by your side the whole time, but that's no surprise. All the love you've shared with everyone you ever came in contact with over the years is coming back to you many times over. You, David, Angie, Andy - your whole family - are being blanketed with prayers. "For I know the plans I have for you," declares the Lord, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." Jer. 29:11
Love you and hope to see you soon... Deb
Hello, My precious friend. I was thinking about your voice,today. Everyone misses hearing you and the smile your voice always conveys. But, Jill, its the pureness of you that comes through because of your love for the Lord, total faith, and your unfaultering inner being of knowing "it is well, with your soul". And the bestest thing is you share it with us all!!! Thank you for that, Jill. Thank you for never second guessing what is the pureness of heart that God gives you. Thank you for the laughter but most of all thank you for the strength you give all of us, me especially. You dance right there in your ICU room!!
Thank you for sharing the "The Shack" with me. I'm reading it and its awesome just as you told me it would be. As usual, your timing was God's timing. You're helping me as you recover, just like you, really.
Everyone is wanting to make you feel comfortable and say just the right words to make you better as you as you always do for us, but, sweet friend,no one can fill your shoes but you. We're trying. Just know with a sureness that you are loved.
MY LOVE ALWAYS,
PAM
Angie,
Thank you for taking the time to update this blog, you are doing a great job. Your mom is so wonderful and strong and she will continue to recover! I can't stop thinking about her since I found out about this terrible accident...I wish I was closer!

Thanks, Angie, for the updates. Sorry I haven't gotten to the hospital lately, but have been taking care of Timi. She's doing well after her hysterectomy. I have been thinking about all the wonderful times we've all had together, and will continue to have. Jill is precious to us! She is always the one keeping everybody "up" and now she needs us. She is such a strong person, and has such a strong faith in the Lord. He has held her in the palm of His hand and will continue to do so. Love you all! Dana
Thank you so much for the blog of updates. I check it several times a day just to see how Jill is doing. I don't know your family, I am just a customer whose life has been deeply touched by such an amazing woman. She has been my rock, during tough times, and I want to be there for her and her family. I pray everyday for Jill and I can see God's work being done. She has amazing strength and courage. I still can not believe this tragedy happened but I'm not surprised by Jills faith and perserverance. Jill could always make you smile and make you feel loved. I know she is getting the same support from many wonderful people. Thanks again for the updates, I know you are exhausted, but so many people are so grateful to all of her family. I can't wait until Jill can have visitors and is more alert. I will be there! Tara
