Hi folks, just a post to tell you how incredible today has been.
Arrived this morning instead of yesterday. Due to scheduling issues I had to be on campus.
Today has been totally incredible. Dar has been happy since the moment I arrived. I learned that Dar's " trach cuff" has been deflated since yesterday. Dar can have her speaking valve on from 8am till 8pm without attendance from staff. She has been talking all day.
Virtually without pain all day Dar has been in rare form all day.
I also learned that Dar has been eating applesauce, yogurt and drinking juice from a straw. How cool is this news.
Tomorrow morning she has requested to have a little bit of eggs, cream of wheat and choclate ice cream. It is possible she could be on a regular soft diet by Monday.
I am waiting now to hear from Dr. D and her plan for "trach" removal. It is possible that it might be gone by Sat.We will see.
I must tell you this, keeping up with Dar now is both exciting and exhausting. She is making up for lost time.
Well just something short for you to read. Talk to you all soon. Thank you for your continued prayers. We love you all. Dar is making fabulous progress. It is amazing.
Good night all,
Dar/Danny

It's just hard to imagine all the progress Dar is making. It helps that you can keep up with her as much as you do. Her drive is inspiring.
