It is so good to hear that you are making such great strides these days. We know about wigs. My oldest daughter lost all her hair while a freshman and again when she was a junior in HS. She has been in and out of wigs much of her life since, although sometimes she just used little light weight hair pieces that clipped in to cover bald spots if the holes were not too large. These were made to match her own hair and were much lighter and more comfortable than the whole wig. Wigs do not last for real long times, so if the first does not come back quite right, you will get another chance–if you will need them that long. And remember, only your hairdresser will know!!!
Maybe you never heard that advertisement, huh? Wishing you the best in the rest of your therapy. It will be so nice to be home, won’t it. Dick and Esther

Wow!! At Clayton (NM) Special Meeting yesterday, someone mentioned to me that Larisa had posted Saturday’s blog! What excitement! So, today, as I was catching up, it did please me and make me smile to see it for myself. Like others have said the Rehab Hospital won’t be the same with out you. I know you are excited at the prospect of going “home”, even if it’s a temporary home before your own home. This, too, shall happen very soon. Yesterday, at Clayton, we heard about the love of God and how when you want something you put your all into obtaining it. I have thought this about other aspects of our lives, too and it makes me more sure that if we love what God loves, we’ll want it and give everything to obtain more of it.

Let’s see – was that scuba diving on Saturday? Why don’tyou put boating in San Diego on your list? We actually have sunshine today before tomorrow’s storm hits so today would be a good boating day if you need something ‘to do’! Jeff and Monica, Rob and Amy (Hoest) Foster had their baby boy last night – Wyatt Gage! Love, Cheri

Larisa,
You don’t know me personally. We live and go to meeting in Pittsburgh, PA. I check your blog weekly to find out your progress, but we wanted you to let you know you are in hearts and prayers every day. We like to see how you are doing, your strength has amazed us. We will continue to keep you in our hearts. I am a Physical Therapist myself at a inpatient rehab facility and love hearing about your progress. You have been an encouragement to so many, thank-you for posting!

How exciting to “hear” from you directly – what a thrill it is for all of us who have been following so closely the daily updates. So many times I would get up and early in the AM want to check and see how you were doing! David was so faithful with the reports and thoughts have been with you more than you will ever know.

Just wanted you to know that we are thinking of you from Argentina. I know you probably don’t remember us from when we lived in Kansas, but we remember you
Also, Clay Fite is my nephew (his mom is my sister), so I know just what you are going through because little Clay was having to do the same things. We are SO happy for you and it’s wonderful that you have progressed so far so quickly! Your friends from far away, The Bishops

I was going to wait until Larisa posted again so I wouldn’t be at the very end of 73 comments, but due to the current challenge I am going to add another to the long list. So glad Larisa that you are able to post. Lorene wants to come down with Zane and see you. That likely won’t happen until you are established at Graingers, so you better get there quickly!

2nd try to leave a comment, this is why I don’t comment much. Not only can I sometimes not get to the blog, it seldom accepts a comment.
We are glad Larisa, you are able to write, Lorene wants to come and see you again, likely when you get to Graingers. (The first comment was better!)
