okay, i know i talk too much, but the computer decided i was through before i really was. gen said i should get on again and finish, so here i am again. i was saying i was tired from my long day and the drive up here, and i fell asleep somewhere around 4am. i woke up to the sound of gen saying "mom." what a treat, and i am not being sarcastic. today, josh and i (mostly josh) put up string in gen's room at her request so we could hang up all her cards. she has counted them too. her room looks so festive all the nurses comment on it when they come in. we want to thank everyone for remembering her with cards this way. it means so much. if anyone did not have the address, they can send cards in care of josh or susan at 5330 normal blvd, lincoln nebraska 68506. we also want to thank olivia for suggesting, and chris for initiating the account at smb for gen's benefit. her medical bills are unimaginable, and it is so comforting to know that people are willing to help us carry the burden by contributing. we are humbled and very grateful. we believe God is in control, and we praise Him for putting such supportive people in our lives as family and friends to make life a lot more enjoyable.
susan...this time i really was finished.

Susan,
reading the words, "I awoke to Gen saying mom" just made me cry tears of joy for you. It is a prayer I have been saying all along for her to utter that precious word. What an exciting and encouraging day. So happy to hear real food is being introduced and that Gen is doing so well with her exercises. Gen keep up the hard work and Susan and Josh stay strong. love, Tracey
Hi Gen, You won't know me by name, but I am the redhead that works just down the street in Carthage and use to buy coffee, snacks and stuff at your rummage sales. Thanks to Melfin and Bill Buchanan I was able to connect the
Gen on the prayer list at church with the girl down the street! I am sorry to hear of your health problems, but glad to hear of your great progress. Just wanted to let you know that you are in our thoughts and prayers. Keep the good work up and hope to see you back in Carthage soon. Nancy Young
