Winning, Duh! 3/8/11

Sorry for the title, I just had too. Erin is continuing with her recovery at home and all is going pretty well. I mean, she is winning, duh. She must have "tiger blood" or something because she is so strong and has been so strong through all of this.

We have had numerous visitors and we greatly appreciate the company and gifts of food, flowers, etc. Most importantly though, we just enjoy seeing our friends.

This past week Erin had a doctor's appointment with a pelvis specialist. It went well as the X-rays showed that all of her fractures remained stable. He mentioned that after her next appointment (about 4 weeks from now), she will begin her physical therapy and strength building. I think this will be a welcomed addition to Erin's daily routine as she has always enjoyed working out.

This weekend Erin went out to eat with me and a group of friends. I think that it was really nice to be back "out" and not going to a doctor's appointment. We had our favorite waffle fries at Jethro's and enjoyed the company of Matt and Sara along with numerous SAE friends.

Erin's main task is to rest as her fractures need time to heal. We have "slumber parties" on the weekends where I will sleep on the couch downstairs with her. on the hospital bed. It is kind of nice getting to share the room during the night, but it just won't work during the weekdays when I am getting up early for work.

Sorry that the updates have been sparse as of late. Hopefully as Erin continues to make strides, I will be able to update more often.

Once again, thank you for the outpouring of support. We couldn't do it without all of our "angels".

Best,

Erin and Andy
