MJ's on Easy Street...relatively speaking.

"I turned a big corner yesterday." Indeed she did. Once the NG tube came out, things started to fall into place. The bladder catheter is out. The surgical drain is out. Incisional staples are out. Diet is advancing. MJ is up walking around and causing trouble. Thinks are definitely looking up. Tonight - solid food...

We're even starting to talk about GOING HOME!!! Maybe Saturday. We'll let you know...keep your fingers crossed.

    See? I told you, Mary Jane. You are a warrior and are showing it, and I am so proud of you. You have been tested yet again and your colors are flying. Keep up the good work. I assume you can see and hear and read all the love and respect coming at you from all corners. I love you! Nicki

    Dear MJ,
    Nothing sounds better than going home on the
    4th of July!! Bravo Bravo for your progress, your
    courage and strength.
    Solid food sounds great for a home-coming party.

    MJ, As willy Nelson's song says...You are always on my mind. Finally a reason to celebrate. Here's to everyone who loves you so much and has found energy to keep us all informed. Thank you! Here's to you, MJ, whose courage inspires us to keep the faith. You are always on my mind and I am smiling!
    Love,
    M.
