Brooklyn had a restful nite. She slept for most of it. Her lungs are begining to clear and sound better, so that is a step in the right direction to getting the pnuemonia cleared. Brooklyn is such an amazing and strong little girl!!!! She is fighting to get better with every breath!! We know her strenght comes from the LORD!!!

Brooklyn got her drainage tube out this am as well as the
stitches where the ICP bolt was. She looks great. A lot of the
swelling is down and she is SOOOOO READY to get the vent out!!! If
all goes well Sunday and with the procedure Monday and they do NOT
have to do a trachae then we may be going to a regualar room on
MONDAY!!!! Keep believing and praying with us that all doctors will
be proved wrong and she will not need trachae when they do the
scope on Monday!!

Have had a very busy day. After being asleep for 2 weeks, Brooklyn is still raring to go at every moment now and keeping us on our toes!! We will be doing physical and occupational therapy five days a week and Mom and Dad will be doing the excersises on the weekends. In the morning, they are going to do an xray of Brooklyn's throat to make sure everything is working well and when she is swallowing the food and drink are going into the stomach like it is supposed to. They put the feeding tube back in today until they complete that test tomm. just to be on the safe side. She has her ups and down emotionally, but it is such a miracle before our eyes to see her able to talk and do all that she is doing right now!! You can go to WBBJ.com and check out the interview with our Pastor of Temple Baptist, Bro. Matt that aired tonite on the news!! Keep us uplifted with prayers for strength and courage as we continue our journey toward a full recovery!!!

We have been on the go all day today!! Brooklyn has walked some
today with Mom and Dad by her side. She rode in the wagon and went
down to the lobby and rode the elevators. She is improving every
moment. Got fitted for her helment. Looks to be a great Easter
weekend. Rejoice with us this weekend as you spend time with your
families and go to church. We know our God is a Living God and that
he REIGNS!!!!
