Yesterday was one of those roller coaster days. Fortunately it ended on a high note. Ashley was quite irritable in the morning. Nothing seemed to make her comfortable. Morning therapy did not go so well and no matter what anyone did Ashley was just not in a good mood.
That all changed by late afternoon. Mary and Ashley went outside and she enjoy it. Upon going back in it was time for another therapy session. This time Ashley was up for it. At one point a therapist placed a kickball in Ashley's lap and asked her to move it. She did. The therapist asked for a 'high-five' and Ashley complied. When her attending physician came by and asked for a 'high-five' Ashley did it again.
Later that evening we were watching TV and joking around. Ashley was all smiles and giggles.
We have our rescheduled transfer date. If all goes according to plan (since Virginia we have had four cancellations so we have learned to go with the flow) Ashley will be road-tripping to Chicago Monday morning.
We know you will be keeping her in your prayers for a safe trip and successful rehabilitation; thank you!

Hey Ashley,
Your big trip to the Windy City tomorrow - enjoy the comfy ride! And, please say "Hi" to Oprah for us!
Love,
Mike, Vicki, & Ben
Ashley, Mary, and Jeff,
We hope you have safely arrived in Chicago, and that Ashley is comfortable in her new digs! No call from Austin this a.m., so am hopeful that his morning went well, also!
We love and miss you, and continue to pray for all of you, especially the return of the children's health.
Keep in touch. Let us know of ANYTHING we can do to help out.
Love, Mike, Barb, and family
