September 3rd

Labor Day weekend has brought a lot of visitors to see Ashley. We know she appreciates seeing familiar faces and voices.

Ashley is aware that she will be moving soon. When we tell her she is ready for the next stage in rehabilitation it puts a smile on her face. We are still considering two options and have already had some follow up conversations to make sure we have all the information we need to make the best choice for Ashley.

She continues to move more on her own and, while not steadily consistent, Ashley is responding more frequently to requests. She is impressing family and friends that have not seen her in over a week with just how much progress she is making.

This may be Ashley’s last full week in Fort Wayne for some time. Please continue your prayers for a safe and conformable transition when she moves and for the next stage in Ashley’s rehabilitation to be a great success.

Hey Ashley, I am so glad to hear you are doing better! My prayers have been with you and I'm so happy to see that your family has such faith and is so positive. When Chris was diagnosed with cancer we maintained a positive attitude and we fully believe it helped him recover quicker because now he is cancer free! Keep your faith up and before you know it you will be back at SMC!
Thinking of You,
Ashley Reisiger (your SMC friend that transferred to Purdue!)

Hello :) I am hoping to come home this weekend to see Ashley. Please tell me you'll be here! My e-mail is edent@purdue.edu or if it gets through the grapevine, Mom can always relay information to me.
Thank you! :)

Harrington Family,
You have been in my thoughts and prayers daily since this whole ordeal began. Mary, I miss our talks during 7th and 8th grade planning period! Keep your head up (like you always do!) and know you are thought of often. Ashley is a beautiful young woman who I know will make a complete recovery before you know it.
God Bless,
Julie Lukemire
